DERC Shell Side Blaster - SSB

Automated solution for external cleaning of heat exchangers

The SSB is designed and manufactured by DERC Salotech as an automated solution for external cleaning of heat exchangers with high pressure water jets. The SSB makes tube bundle blasting of shell side cleaning simple and safe by placing the operator at a safe distance. The SSB consists of two wheeled frames, which can be placed over the heat exchanger, and adjusted in height by means of two manually operated hand wheels. The system comes with two tensioner chains to secure the frames to your Tube Bundle Rollers.

The SSB is easy to disassemble to break down in smaller/shorter pieces for easy transportation.

Automated Solutions Tractor

Mounted between the frames is a stainless steel coupled profile with a 4” Automated Solution Rail attached. The DERC Automated Solutions Tractor (AST) runs on the Automated Solutions Rail (ASR). The Powered Tractor drives back and forth over the Automated Solutions Rail automatically. This is realized by means of a gearbox, air or hydaulic engine, gear and heavy-duty stainless steel roller bearings. End switches coupled to a control valve ensure the automatic movement back and forth. The stroke can be easily adjusted by moving the end stops.
