Spray Cleaning - For General Surface Cleaning Applications
The underlying principle of spray cleaning is the strong mechanical forces (impact forces), brought about by pressure spray, impacting on the surfaces of parts to be cleaned. The cleaning medium, discharged at high pressure, must come in contact with soiled surfaces for its cleaning action. The spray cleaning technology is universally accepted as a means for general surface cleaning applications. Its effectiveness, reliability, low cost of cleaning equipment and great versatility, attests its increasing popularity and recognition over many decades.
The spray cleaning is accomplished by pumping the cleaning solution from a reservoir (water bath) to a large pipe and series of smaller pipes with a final discharge at multiple spray nozzles onto the parts to be cleaned. The pressure at which the solution is applied can vary depending on the type of cleaning application. In general, higher spray pressure produces greater mechanical forces for removing soils from the surface.
As a rule of thumb, the following parameters are invariably taken into great consideration when designing a good jet spray cleaning system.
1. Spray pressure 2. Spray flow rate 3. Type of cleaning solutions (water, aqueous based solutions, acidic or alkaline chemicals) 4. Application temperature of cleaning solution 5. Distribution and positioning of spray nozzles 6. Processing time
