A word used in the industry called "water blasting" signifies precisely what it sounds like. When you're a youngster, it means to "soak the competitors" with a pump-action blast of pressurised water. That sounds like a good time. Water blasting has the same meaning when it comes to industrial cleaning and surface preparation; the only difference is that the "competition" is the undesirable surface coating and the pressurised water stream is a thousand times more potent. The water blasting equipment we build in North Charleston, South Carolina, is capable of producing pressures of up to 40,000 psi.
The Process of Water Blasting and Cleaning
Our 15000 psi water blasters utilise positive displacement pumps, which means that a certain amount of water will be moved by each crankshaft rotation. This displaced water can either be pushed to flow through a very small hole or nozzle orifice, or it can be allowed to flow freely out of the end of an open hose. The size of the aperture through which the water must pass determines the resulting operating pressure. The pressure needed to drive the water through an opening increases with its size. Water blasting can effectively and safely remove corrosion and coatings without harming the substrate by changing the operating pressure. Internal and external surfaces can be effectively cleaned with high-pressure water alone, without the need for abrasives or potentially dangerous chemicals. Water blasting, also known as hydro blasting, is one of the safest solutions when compared to other stripping techniques and tools.
Typical Supporting Equipment for Water Blasting
There are many other related accessories and pieces of equipment available to improve water blasting operations, ensure personal safety, and aid in environmental protection, in addition to the wide range of water blast gun styles and the specialised nozzles used to regulate the delivery of the high-pressure blast water to the workpiece. Abrasive media can be added to the water stream using media injection devices to remove tougher coatings and profile surfaces. Wearing protective PPE gear can reduce the risk of injury from the high-pressure water stream. Systems for containment can shield neighbouring areas from debris runoff and water spray. Following the completion of the water blasting, recovery systems like vacuuming equipment might aid with cleanup. By eliminating paint, residue, and other impurities, filter systems can clean up the collected water, preparing it for reuse or disposal.
