Maximum flexibility for on-load cleaning of the convection area Deposits in the convective heating areas tend to have an uneven distribution.
The use of conventional cleaning technologies can lead to the following issues: Insufficient cleaning of badly affected areas due to cleaning parameters set to less deposited areas; tube wear in zones with less or no deposits due to intensified cleaning of heavily deposited areas.
The non-uniform fouling distribution requires a corresponding flexibility from the on-load boiler cleaning system to achieve the best and most economic cleaning results.
Our solution The RX-SMART Helix is a long retractable sootblower with a unique dual-motor design which allows independent and variable traversing and rotational speeds. The speeds can be varied at any time.
All parameters required for cleaning – traversing speed, rotational speed, blowing pressure, blowing angle – can be set as required with a flexible combination.This leads to different cleaning intensities that best match the actual deposit situation
