Multi-Media Sootblower SMART Jet
Operating Principle
- The SMART Jet moves across the heater in steps, timed to match one or more rotations of the element assembly, to ensure full and even cleaning
- After cleaning is completed, the cleaning medium supply is automatically switched off and the lance is retracted to its rest position outside of the unit.
- Allows for selective ring cleaning and intensive cleaning at focussed areas, tailored to the particular problem of each application
Technical Summary
Clyde Bergemann’s SMART Jet builds on the experience of the industry leading Jetblower and has been tested and proven under the most severe operating conditions in over 100 installations in 17 countries around the world.
The innovative Clyde Bergemann SMART Jet is the most advanced cleaning device for the cleaning of heat transfer surfaces in rotary air preheaters and gas reheaters. Its unique features are designed for the demanding service requirements of gas reheater installations associated with Flue-gas Desulphurisation (FGD) plants. On conventional regenerative air preheaters, its superior ability to unplug heavy fouling build-up and to remove water-soluble ammonium bisulphate (ABS) deposits contributes to improved boiler thermal efficiency and the prevention of unplanned outages. Also suited for hazardous area conditions.
