Industrial waterjet technology provider Fedjetting has launched its full line of Bundle Tube Cleaning Systems, an automated ultra-high-pressure cleaning solution built to eliminate stubborn fouling and deposits from heat exchangers, condensers and boiler tube bundles. The technology replaces hazardous manual cleaning methods, delivering restored thermal performance, enhanced operator safety and reduced facility downtime.
Fedjetting Unveils Automated High-Pressure Bundle Tube Cleaning Systems to Transform Industrial Heat Exchanger Maintenance
[Industrial News] – High-pressure waterjet specialist Fedjetting has introduced its comprehensive Bundle Tube Cleaning Systems, a purpose-engineered portfolio of automated cleaning solutions designed to resolve longstanding pain points in industrial heat exchanger, condenser and boiler bundle maintenance.
Moving beyond ineffective chemical cleaning, manual scraping and risky hand-held hydro-blasting, Fedjetting’s ultra-high-pressure waterjet systems deliver complete removal of hard scale, polymers, rust, biological sludge and other stubborn deposits from the shell side of tube bundles. The technology restores equipment to peak thermal efficiency and enables a rapid return to service for industrial facilities.
Tailored Product Lineup for Diverse Operational Scales
The Bundle Cleaning Systems portfolio includes two core configurations to match different project sizes and use cases:
- Bundle Blaster: A powerful, cost-effective automated system for external cleaning of heat exchangers, evaporators, condensers and industrial tube bundles. Ideal for service contractors and plant teams seeking low-maintenance, user-friendly equipment, the Bundle Blaster delivers safer, more consistent results than traditional hand-held shell-side cleaning methods at roughly one-third the cost of trailer-mounted systems.
- Tube Bundle Blaster: A heavy-duty, high-throughput system engineered for fast cleaning of large volumes of heat exchanger bundles during planned shutdowns. The system operates five lances from a protected, high-visibility operator cabin, prioritizing worker comfort and safety while maximizing cleaning speed.
Engineered for Versatility, Performance and Low Lifecycle Cost
Fedjetting’s Bundle Cleaning Systems are built for seamless performance across demanding industrial environments, with three core design pillars:
- Versatile & Maneuverable Design The systems feature adjustable frames with locking wheels and anchor hooks for stable, flexible positioning on blast pads and easy transport between job sites. The fully modular assembly disassembles quickly with basic hand tools, while optional tube bundle rotation rollers deliver complete 360° cleaning coverage for every application.
- Customizable Cleaning Performance Users can tailor cleaning power with multiple head options – from concentrated high-power jets to wide-path coverage – compatible with a full range of pressures and flow rates for maximum efficiency. Standard lance lengths of 24 ft (7.3m) and 36 ft (11m) accommodate diverse tube bundle sizes, with simple auto-stop controls to perfectly match stroke length and eliminate wasted operational time.
- Intuitive Control & Low-Maintenance Operation A remote control panel enables precise, independent adjustment of rotation and traverse speeds for optimized cleaning results. Built for long-term reliability, the systems support simple, cost-effective maintenance to deliver consistent performance and minimal downtime across all industrial cleaning projects.
Proprietary Fedjetting Technology Delivers Superior Cleaning Results
Backed by Fedjetting’s engineered waterjet expertise, the systems integrate three industry-leading technical features:
- Robotic Automated Lances: Deliver consistent, repeatable cleaning for large bundles, with programmable patterns that ensure full coverage with no missed areas, while keeping operators out of hazardous work zones.
- Federotating Nozzle Technology: Patented nozzle designs produce a uniform, omnidirectional jet pattern that delivers balanced cleaning force in all directions.
- Integrated Debris Management: Optional containment shrouds and water recycling systems keep work areas clean and support responsible wastewater management.
Operating at 1,000 to 2,500 bar, the ultra-high-pressure waterjet process erodes and shears away even the toughest deposits while remaining substrate-safe. Unlike mechanical cleaning tools, the waterjet selectively removes fouling without damaging base metal, preserving the integrity of fins, tubes and welds. The specialized 360° rotary nozzles and lance systems navigate tight bundle clearances and complex baffle arrangements, delivering a thorough clean from the bundle core to outer layers.
“For industrial facilities, fouled heat exchangers mean lost energy efficiency, unplanned downtime and safety risks for maintenance teams,” said a spokesperson for Fedjetting. “Our Bundle Tube Cleaning Systems were engineered to solve all of those problems at once – delivering a faster, safer, more cost-effective cleaning method that restores equipment performance and protects long-term asset integrity.”
