Tube
Cleaning Systems
Technical Information |
The
Maxi-Vac Jet Mate makes tube cleaning a safe, simple, one
man job. While a tool rotates through the tube, driven by a
flexible shaft, water assists by flushing out loosened deposits.
Tubes are
left clean and free of energy robbing build-ups of scale,
algae, mud, etc.
Recommended
for:
Heat Exchangers
Condensers
Evaporators
Absorption machines
Chillers
How
it Works:
The Jet Mate Tube Cleaner was designed with a flexible
shaft which rotates at speeds from 0 to 1800 RPM inside a
watertight nylon casing. As the shaft is fed into the tube
being cleaned, water from a garden hose is carried thru the
machine to the brush or cutting tool. The brush or cutting
tool loosens deposits in the tube and water assists in flushing
deposits out the end of the tube. Operation of the machine
is controlled by an air actuated foot switch. Step on the
switch - the shaft rotates and water flows thru the casing.
Lift the foot off the switch - the shaft immediately stops
rotating and water stops flowing. Thus - the machine operates
and water flows only when the operator deliberately
depresses the foot switch!
Will
Not Damage Tubes:
The brush or cutting tool can be fed through the tube
- unaffected by slight sagging of the tube. Properly sized
and selected brushes and tools will not cut into the tube
wall, nor get stuck.

Constant
Torque . Variable Speed . Increased Safety
Maxi- Vac has carefully designed the Jet Mate Tube Cleaner
with operator safety and equipment reliability in mind The
unit is powered by a D.C. (Permanent Magnet) motor. The motor
is combined with a solid state speed control. This combination
allows the operator to select rotational speeds from near
0 to 1800 RPM with constant torque. Thus, the operator can
handle the shaft and tools at a safe comfortable speed for
the condition of the tube being cleaned. This feature cannot
be offered on units with A.C. motors and constant high RPM'S.
