Boiler Tube Cleaning Systems

Types of Boiler Tube Cleaning Systems

Boiler tube cleaning systems are made up to what a customer requires based on the type of boilers they clean and the type of deposits they come across. Electric or Pneumatic we can assemble the correct system for your needs.

Electric

Power when you need it

110-120/220-240 Volts 50/60 Hz

For Boiler tube cleaning use the PTC -75 0r the PTC-150. 

TCS-75 or 150 Consists of:

• 1 x PTC-75 or PTC-150.
• 2 x Flexible Shaft PFS-750-79 (26ft).
• 25 x  Brushes (Size and Material Type according to Customer).
• 1 x Shaft Repair Tool.
• 4 x Tool Coupling TC-750.
• 4 x Drive Coupling DC-750.
• 1 x Flexible Shaft Lubricator.

Features:

• Water flushes through the shaft and removes deposits from the tube.
• Forward direction foot switch, foot pressure operated.
• Flexible shafts can be easily connected and disconnected.
• Stainless Steel body for harsh environments.
• Accessible interchangeable various accessories and shafts.
• Large wheels for easy transportation.
• Water consumption can be regulated.
• Easy to use, Operator friendly.

Pneumatic

Pneumatic Power ATC-300

4 Hp of Raw Air Power

When air power is the option then the power of the ATC-300 will comply.

ATC-300 Consists of:

Cleaning Boiler Tubes

Cleaning boiler tubes is a laborious job when done by hand with brushes and rods. Using boiler tube cleaning systems makes the task much easier on the operator and is completed in a shorter time. First, you need to know the type of deposit on the inside of the tube. This will determine the type of accessories you will need and the type of brush needed to remove the deposit in the most economical way. 

Brushes

Most fire tube boilers if cleaned regularly will usually only need nylon brushes to remove the soot bringing the tubes back to their original cleanliness. The brushes need to run loose on the ID of the tube. So, if the tube ID is 1.7/8″ then a brush of 1.3/4″ is ideal. It’s the rotation and the vibration of the brush in the tube which removes the deposits. The machine supplies water to the flexible shaft from the tool end. This then flushes away all debris out of the tube. Water only runs when the foot pedal is depressed. For more stubborn deposits use either the Double Spiral brush or Stainless Steel brushes. 
In water tube boilers, especially where the local feed water is either not treated or has high calcium or other mineral content. 
For large copper tubes in Stills and evaporators use either Nylon or Brass brushes.

Product Quality

We work to high tolerances for all machining of expanders and associated equipment. This allows accurate expansion to achieve perfect sealed joints in tube sheets. Using the best tool steel and cryogenic processes for hardening and conditioning. Giving our tooling the optimum performance in the harshest surroundings.
We assemble each expander while checking the quality of the manufacture. Every individual tool is laser-marked with our name, Powermaster Canada. Also, we mark with the tube OD, wall thickness and expansion range. Expanders are then oiled bagged and boxed for shipping. Therefore, with our quality control and machining excellence, we supply a quality tool.
