Nirafon Acoustic Cleaning
Systems have provided cost effective solutions to these problems
by way of their effectiveness in removing particulate matter
from equipment surfaces gently - without causing any damage;
low capital, operating and maintenance costs and a high degree
of operational flexibility, thereby leading to substantial cost
savings.
Principle of Operation
Nirafon Acoustic Cleaning
Systems utilise the energy in the low frequency sound waves
(100-250Hz) generated by a pneumatically operated Acoustic Horn.
This energy resonates and dislodges dust, soot or other particulate
matter which tends to deposit on various surfaces of industrial
equipment.The ability of sound waves to move in three dimensional
space, even into nooks and crannies, makes it possible for Acoustic
Cleaners to reach and clean all inaccessible places and even
surfaces that are hidden around corners, which otherwise cannot
be cleaned using conventional methods.
Nirafon Acoustic Cleaning Systems generate sound pressure levels
of more than 150dB by pneumatic activation of a specially designed
Diaphragm housed inside the Generator of the Acoustic Horn.These
pressure peaks are generated in controlled bands of frequencies
found to be most effective in breaking bonds between the particles
of the deposits and the equipment surfaces as well as between
the particles themselves, leading to their dislodgement.
Utility Requirement
Nirafon Acoustic Cleaning
Systems (NACS) require a compressed air pressure of 5-6 Kg/square
cm (g) for their operation. Each Acoustic Horn consumes compressed
air @ approx. 25 litres/sec during sounding time only and @
1-2 litres/sec cooling and rinsing air to keep the diaphragm
cool and dust free at all times.
Our present range of
Acoustic Cleaning Systems can work effectively up to application
temperatures of 1000°C for which suitable material of construction
(Cast Steel/Stainless Steel) is selected.

Cleaning Systems
Nirafon Acoustic Cleaning
Systems (NACS) come with a high degree of operational flexibility
suited to the requirements of the applications.
The sounding cycle
parameters can be set individually to optimise the cleaning
effect.
