Curran’s patented dry abrasive tube cleaning technology propels high-velocity grit through heat exchanger tubes, removing tenacious scale, fouling, and deposits without water introduction.
Our specialized nozzles deliver twice the velocity of standard methods, achieving IRIS-clean surfaces and white metal cleanliness for optimal NDE data acquisition.
Traditional hydro blasting and mechanical cleaning methods fail to remove tenacious deposits, creating inspection noise and requiring multiple cleaning cycles. Water introduction increases corrosion risk and extends drying time.
Required for adequate cleaning
Curran’s patented dry grit blasting achieves superior cleanliness in a single pass, enabling accurate NDE data collection without water introduction or rework requirements.
Cleaning completion
Curran’s grit blasting technology removes fouling and scale that traditional methods cannot address, extending equipment life and reducing the need for costly tube plugging or replacement.
Mitigates corrosion risks by eliminating deposits and moisture introduction while extending tube service life.
Achieves IRIS-clean surfaces with reduced background noise, enabling detection of small defects and faster data acquisition.
Eliminates cleaning rework cycles and minimizes operational disruption through predictable turnaround execution.
Restores thermal efficiency by removing fouling deposits, improving system performance and energy savings.
In-situ execution with vacuum containment systems minimizes impact to adjacent work and accelerates project completion.
Provides clean substrate for accurate NDE assessment, supporting informed maintenance decisions and reliability planning.
Partner with the industry leader in tubular cleaning technology for reliable, predictable results that enhance equipment performance and extend service life.
