The Application of High-Pressure Cleaners in Ship Repair

The release date:2022-09-14 viewed:1210

After a ship has finished a long voyage, a thick layer of fouling adheres to the hull shell below the draft line. The fouling layer is usually composed of algae and shellfish, which is tight and hard. When ship maintenance is carried out, the coating, dirt, old paint, rust, etc. are usually removed from the hull, and then apply new paint. In the past, the workers used to remove the dirt layer and coating by hammering, but the maintenance period is quite long while the labor intensity is heavy as well due to hard tight dirt layer with large area. Now, with the development of high-pressure water jet technology in China, high-pressure cleaners provide great convenience for removing dirt, etc., and are widely promoted and adopted in the ship repair industry.


Technical Analysis:

Working principle: Use high-pressure water pump to raise the pressure of ordinary water, so that it shoots out from the nozzle to form a high-pressure water flow.

Working power: Pressure is 15-150Mpa, flow rate is about 11-33/min


Main Advantages:

1. Low cost of cleaning

High-pressure cleaner uses water as working medium. It doesn’t need any detergent which can save cost.

2. Saving water

Since the nozzle of high-pressure cleaner is only 0.5-2.5mm, so the water consumption is only 3-5 cubic meters per hour.

3. Good cleaning quality

High-pressure water jet destroys hard scale and clogs with great energy, but there is no damage to metal.

4. Fast cleaning speed

Due to the scouring of high-pressure water jet, the scales can be struck off immediately.

5. No environmental pollution

Since the cleaning medium of high-pressure cleaner is pure water, no other detergent will be added which cause no environmental pollution.

6. Wide range of applications

As long as the position can be reached by high-pressure water jet, the scale can be cleaned off.

The powerful impact of high-pressure water can quickly remove coatings, dirt, old paint, rust, etc. Sandblasting technology can also be used by adding cheap quartz sand, which is also an efficient and high-quality maintenance cleaning method.
