Automatic Brushing System for Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger

The EQOBRUSH cleaning system for shell and tube heat exchangers and (chiller) condensers is an effective method to clean ALL the tubes DURING OPERATION and guarantee optimal heat dissipation from the condenser at all times.

The system components are carefully designed and precision tooled to ensure optimal performance, reliability and durability.

The main components are: SYSTEM COMPONENTS

Brush & Basket sets

Flow Reversal Valve

Intelligent Actuator

Touch Screen Control

Panel

Remote Performance Monitoring (Optional)

 

Each tube in the heat exchanger will be equipped with a set of one Brush and two Baskets, one at each pipe end. The basket studs are glued in the pipe end using specialized metal cement.

 

BRUSHES

The standard brushes are made of Rilsan (nylon) with SST316 twisted wire and a PA streamlined end-cap.

BASKETS

The baskets are made of PE and withstand up to 60 °C.

For condensers in HVAC applications, we normally use slim baskets with an end clip.

The brushes are easily replaceable if required.

For industrial heavy-duty applications, sea and brackish water operated heat exchangers, we select a socket type with a demountable basket.

The brushes and baskets are easily demountable for cleaning or brush replacement (life span 3-5 years).

The KV FLOW REVERSAL VALVE is available in different materials and variations to suit specific piping layouts.

To initiate a cleaning cycle, the internal pipe (swing box) makes a swing movement of 90 degrees.

The valve has a cross-over leak range of < 0.01 %. At a water flow speed of 2.5 m/s through the valve, the pressure resistance in the valve is less than 0.04 bar.
