| The Nirafon Acoustic
Cleaning Systems as well as the Nirafon Gas Pulse Cleaners offer
several distinct advantages as a superior and cost effective
alternative to conventional cleaning methods: |
 |
 |
Cleaning
is possible in inaccessible places ! |
| |
Unlike conventional cleaning methods
which provide localised cleaning, Nirafon Acoustic Cleaning
Systems use sound waves which travel in three dimensional space
to reach even inaccessible places for effective cleaning. |
 |
 |
Maintains plant efficiency at
a high level ! |
| |
Nirafon acoustic cleaning continuously
removes soot, ash and particulate matter deposits from surfaces,
thus preventing formation of build ups, thereby maintaining
heat transfer efficiency in Boilers, pressure drops in Bag Filters,
vibration levels in Fans etc. at desired levels. |
 |
 |
Cleaning without interrupting
plant process/ production ! |
| |
Nirafon acoustic cleaning is a
totally independent process which does not require stoppage
or interruption of production. Being an 'on-line' process, it
significantly reduces or even eliminates down time and increases
equipment availability. At the same time, Nirafon Acoustic Cleaning
Systems can be used during plant shutdowns to minimise requirement
of manual cleaning. |
|
 |
Automatic operation ! |
| |
Nirafon Acoustic Cleaning Systems
are fully automatic as the operation is controlled by means
of an Electrical Control Unit / PLC with settings made as per
requirements of the application. Once the system is switched
on, no manual intervention is required for its operation. |
|
 |
Cleaning without damaging ! |
| |
Conventional cleaning methods such
as Steam Soot Blowing in Boilers are known to cause erosion
to the heating surfaces leading to their premature failure.
Similarly, manual hammering of walls causes damage to hoppers,
bins, and cyclones while excessive use of compressed air pulses
in bag filters causes high mechanical fatigue to the fabric
leading to premature failure of filter bags. The Nirafon Acoustic
Cleaning Systems perform the cleaning operation gently without
causing damage, thereby enhancing the life of the mother equipment. |
|
 |
Lower initial capital investment
! |
| |
When compared with traditional
alternatives such as steam soot blowers for keeping the heating
surfaces of the boiler clean, the Nirafon Acoustic Cleaning
System as well as the Gas Pulse Cleaning System offer an extremely
cost effective solution from the viewpoint of capital cost. |
|
 |
Lower operating costs ! |
| |
Nirafon Acoustic Cleaning Systems
require compressed air for their operation leading to much lower
operating costs compared to traditional cleaning systems such
as steam soot blowers which consume substantial quantities of
steam having significant cost implications. Also power consumption
by Nirafon Acoustic Cleaning Systems is minimal compared to
conventional cleaning methods. |
|
 |
Lower service & maintenance
costs ! |
| |
Having minimal moving parts, Nirafon
Acoustic Cleaning Systems require negligible maintenance, service
and spare part costs. |
|
 |
Lesser space requirement ! |
| |
Nirafon Acoustic Cleaning Systems
are compact and occupy much less space compared to conventional
cleaning devices such as Long Retractable Soot Blowers. This
adds further to the cost effectiveness of the Nirafon systems. |
