Operating Principle
- The lance tube with high-performance nozzles enters into the boiler and continues the blowing process in oscillating movement
- The blowing process begins as soon as the nozzles have passed through the boiler wall
- On reaching the prescribed travel, the direction of movement changes and the lance tube returns to its rest position
Technical Summary
The Oscillating sootblower is designed for the selected cleaning of specific boiler segments with heavy fouling in power plants, waste-to-energy facilities, biomass plants, petrochemical plants and other industrial applications.
The Oscillating sootblowers offer excellent results in cleaning performance. Using the most effective cleaning nozzle in the market, cleaning impact is maximised with a minimal amount of blowing media. The key feature is the oscillating movement of the cleaning element. Also suitable for hazardous area conditions.
