Simple to operate - minimal training required • Stainless steel cover and
corrosion resistant chassis – long life • Interchangeability of different
size flexible shafts and cleaning tools – versatile • Quick disconnect of
flexible shaft – no tools required • Large wheels – easy maneuverability
• Simultaneous water flush 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 RAM-4 Tube Cleaner is the
fourth generation of the original rotary tube cleaner. This machine makes tough
tube cleaning a simple, one-person operation. As a brush or other cleaning tool
is rotated through a tube at the tip of a flexible shaft, water simultaneously
flushes out loosened deposits, leaving the tube thoroughly cleaned. Flexible shafts
and accessories are available for cleaning tubes/pipes 1/4"-1" (6.4-25.4mm) I.D.
For: Chillers Condensers Evaporators Absorption Machines Heat Exchangers
As the rotating brush or other
cleaning tool loosens all deposits, the waterflow continuously flushes the deposits
out the far end of the tube.
Cleaning in one easy operation
makes the job more pleasant and, as a result, maintenance personnel will clean
more often.
Because the cleaning tools
are inserted and removed from one end, there is no need to remove the far header
– no need to retrieve non-rotating brushes which have been shot through the tubes.
The flexible shaft snakes
through each tube, unaffected by any bends caused by sagging. All brushes and
tools are designed not to cut into the tube wall or get stuck in the tube.
Compact The RAM-4 is a compact,
self-contained, roll-anywhere unit which permits operation in tight quarters since
long rods are not required.
The RAM-4 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. 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.
Drive unit easily removed
from dolly for carrying to confined areas.
| GROUND
FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER: |
All Ream-A-Matic Tube Cleaners
are equipped with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter at the plug end of the cord
for shock protection.
| CLEANING
INTERNALLY ENHANCED TUBES: |
The RAM-4 is equipped with
a reversible motor for cleaning internally enhanced tubes. The optional two-direction
foot switch (Part No. 834R) is used to permit clockwise rotation for entering
the tubes and counter-clockwise rotation for exiting. The design of the brush
and the spiral in the tube cause the brush to be propelled through the tube. Reversing
action is not necessary in smooth bore tubes.
| THE
RIGHT TOOLS FOR THE JOB: |
With the Ream-A-Matic, you
select the type of flexible shaft and cleaning tool best suited for the type of
deposit and the type of tube. Goodway Flexible Shafts are available in a variety
of lengths and diameters, and feature the latest advances in flexible shaft technology.
Use them with Goodway Blue Nylon Brushes and Brass Brushes for non-ferrous tubes,
and Goodway Blue Nylon Brushes and Stainless Steel Brushes for ferrous tubes.
Use Stainless Steel Wire Buffing Tools to safely remove scale and/or to put a
smooth, shiny surface on the inside tube wall for maximum heat transfer.
