Shock resistant – excellent for applications where using electric equipment is hazardous
Interchangeability of different size flexible shafts and cleaning tools – versatile
Speed/torque control – speed
Quick disconnect of flexible shaft – no tools required
Simultaneous water flush or vacuum to remove deposits from tubes – saves time
Foot switch for operator convenience to activate shaft rotation and waterflow – reduced water consumption and cleaner working area
The compact and powerful AWT-100 Air Powered Tube Cleaner is ideal for all types of tube cleaning applications where the use of electricity is not available or desirable. The AWT-100 uses a cleaning tool attached to a rotating flexible shaft to remove deposits. Variable torque and speed controls allow the operator to use a complete range of flexible shafts for cleaning tubes/pipes 1¦4" (6.4mm) I.D. and up. Flexible shafts and accessories are available for both wet or dry applications.
How it works
The AWT-100 uses a cleaning tool mounted to the tip of a flexible shaft, which is available in different lengths and diameters to fit the size of the tube to be cleaned. For wet applications, as the shaft rotates inside its watertight nylon casing, the unit feeds water through the casing to the cleaning tool. A foot switch controls shaft rotation and waterflow. While the operator feeds the rotating shaft assembly through the tube, the waterflow flushes out deposits as they are loosened. For dry applications, the GTC-DPA Dry Pickup Attachment and a simultaneous vacuum are used to remove loosened deposits.
