Water Jet Cleaning, or in another word, “hydro-blasting”, is a cleaning technique using high pressure water to clean internal and external surfaces. This technique utilizes clear water pressed by high pressure pump through a nozzle, and blast it onto a workpiece. Upon impact of the water jet, dirt or other residues on the surface dissolve. Water blasting is widely accepted as the effective mean of cleaning as it can remove residues for a variety of applications with almost no limitation.
Applications
High-pressure water jet cleaning can be used in many applications such as:
Tank cleaning
Heat exchanger, evaporator and condenser cleaning
Pipe cleaning
Industrial part cleaning
Paint and rust removal
Wastewater tank cleaning
Truck mixer cleaning
Ship cleaning
Advantages
Compared to other cleaning processes, high-pressure water jet cleaning is considered as the most effective and efficient method. The reasons why most industries use high-pressure water jetting are:
Environmental friendly as water is used as cleaning medium
No chemical solvents or cleaning necessary
Minimal material removal on the base material
No wear of blasting agent
Can be used for places that are hard to reach and complex structures
Fast, flexible, effective and customizable process
Not damage the parts
