Oscillating Sootblower

The Oscillating sootblower is designed  for the selected cleaning of specific boiler segments with heavy fouling in power plants, waste-to-energy facilities, biomass stations and pulp and paper mill.

The key feature is the oscillating movement of the cleaning element.

Retractable oscillating sootblower /  PS-P/RS-P         
 

• The blowing tube with two high-performance nozzles is oscillated (PS-P/RS-P)  
• The blowing process begins as soon as the two nozzles have passed through the boiler wall
• During the blowing process the blowing tube continues to oscillate and move into the flue gas path
• On reaching the front-side end position the direction of movement changes and the blowing tube returns to its rest position

Part retractable oscillating sootblower /  PS-PB/RS-PB         
 

• The blowing tube with two high-performance nozzles is equipped with high performance nozzles over the whole length and is movably supported in the flue gas path
• The blowing process begins as soon as the two nozzles have passed through the boiler wall
• During the blowing process the blowing tube continues to oscillate and move into the flue gas path
• On reaching the front-side end position the direction of movement changes and the blowing tube returns to its rest position

• Integrated stop valve for comfortable adjustment of the blowing pressure
• High-performance nozzles for maximum conversion of steam pressure to jet velocity for high cleaning efficiency
• Travel monitoring by limit switch
• Integrated gear motor for advance and rotating movement
• RS type with double-rack drive design for minimum stress and high stability

• Extended boiler availability and increased boiler efficiency
• Controllable deposit build-up regardless of flexible boiler operation and changing fuel mixture or varying fuel quality
• Prevents fouling in the superheater and blockages in the air heater and economisers
• Maximises thermal efficiency and reduces gas exit temperatures
• Maintains balanced heat transfer in the boiler as close as possible to design parameters
• Clyde Bergemann sootblowers are reliable and simple to maintain
• The Clyde Bergemann design optimises cleaning effect and minimises consumption of steam, water and air
