The patented RAM-5SF
Speed-Feed Tube Cleaner makes tube cleaning quick and easy with its revolutionary
speed-feed gun. It is the machine of choice among contractors and managers of
large buildings and facilities. It will clean tubes up to four times faster than
any other rotary tube cleaner. As a Goodway Blue Nylon Brush is rotated through
a tube at the tip of a flexible shaft, the shaft is power fed by the unit into
and out of the tube at 3' (0.9m) per second. As the brush travels the length of
the tube, water simultaneously flushes out loosened deposits, leaving the tube
thoroughly cleaned. Flexible shafts and Goodway Blue Nylon Brushes are available
for use with the speed-feed gun for removing soft deposits in straight tubes/pipes
9/16"-1" (14.3-25.4mm) I.D. Other flexible shafts and accessories are available
for use without the speed-feed gun for removing a variety of deposits in straight
and curved tubes/pipes 1/4"-1" (6.4-25.4mm) I.D.
By power feeding the flexible
shaft through the tubes, Goodway’s revolutionary speed-feed system reduces tube
cleaning time by as much as 75% over other cleaning methods.
With the speed-feed gun, maintenance
personnel will no longer have to hand feed the flexible shaft into and out of
the tubes. The shaft is power fed by the unit through the control gun, eliminating
fatigue caused by manual feeding operations and increasing operator productivity.
The RAM-5SF 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 a watertight nylon casing, the unit feeds water through the casing to the
cleaning tool. A gun or foot switch controls shaft rotation and waterflow. While
the operator or unit feeds the rotating shaft assembly through the tube, the waterflow
flushes out deposits as they are loosened. When using the speed-feed feature,
shaft feed is totally controlled by the gun. Simply push the top of the trigger
to rotate the flexible shaft in a clockwise direction and enter the tube. Push
the bottom of the trigger to reverse the rotation and exit the tube. Shaft feed
automatically stops at a preset mark when the brush reaches the end of the tube.
Drive unit easily removed from dolly for carrying to confined areas.
