Water jet tube cleaning systems for exchangers, boilers and condensers

It removes scale, sludge, dirt, soot and process deposits from the inside of tubes and pipes in heat exchangers, boilers, condensers and process piping. Clean tubes improve flow and heat transfer, which helps the equipment run closer to its design efficiency.

Our tube cleaning systems work in the 500–2800 bar range. Lower pressures handle lighter deposits and softer fouling, while higher pressures are used for hard scale and heavy fouling. The right setting depends on the deposit, tube material and how far the deposit extends inside the tube.

A system with the correct nozzle, lance and pressure control, commonly in the 500–1500 bar range, suits most heat exchanger tube cleaning. Tube size, fouling level and cleaning depth decide the exact set-up. Share tube ID and length for a recommendation.

Boiler tubes with soot, scale and internal deposits are often cleaned at around 1000–2000 bar, while heavier deposits may need a higher-pressure set-up. Flexible lances let the nozzle travel the full tube length, and rotary nozzles give even coverage of the tube wall.

Condenser tubes are commonly cleaned with rotary nozzles and flexible lances. Pressure and flow are selected based on tube diameter, fouling level and cleaning depth. Because condensers have many tubes, flow and reel systems also matter for keeping cleaning time down.

Yes, when pressure, nozzle and flow are matched to the tube. Water jetting is non-abrasive, so it removes deposits while helping protect the tube surface. Metal tubes are commonly jetted; plastic or softer tubes need careful pressure selection. Share a sample or photo of the scale and the tube material so we can set pressure safely.

Electric suits fixed plant locations with steady power. Diesel is better for mobile and outdoor work. Hydraulic systems are used where hydraulic integration is required. All three can be supplied on skid or trailer mounting. Tell us where the unit will work and what power is available, and we will recommend the drive.

Skid-mounted systems suit fixed industrial use in one plant or workshop. Trailer-mounted systems suit contractors or maintenance teams who move the machine between multiple cleaning locations. Both use the same pump and tooling, so the choice depends on how often the unit must move. Tell us how many sites you clean and how far apart they are.

Send the equipment type, tube ID, length and material, number of tubes, deposit type, preferred pressure and flow if known, power source and mounting preference. Photos of fouled tubes help us choose nozzles and lances. With these details we can size pressure, flow and tooling in one proposal.
