Hydro Blasting

Hydro Blasting, Ultra High Pressure (UHP) Pump units operate at pressure up to 40,000 PSI (2,800 Bar pressure) at flow rate of 27 liters/min making them ideal for surface preparation in the Marine and Offshore Industries. Hydro Blasting is the technology by using water at high‐energy to remove various coatings, rust and corrosion.

Water Jetting has high pressure cleaning resources for applications ranging from cleaning flat surfaces to the inside of pipes, tubes, container and tanks.

It is being widely used by Ship owners, ship repairers and Dry Docking yards for the effective cleaning of the contaminated surfaces at various cleaning standards.

Advantages of Hydro-blasting:

Other repair activities can be done along with hydro‐blasting in the same vicinity; and therefore reduces down‐time and repair costs to contractors.

• Removal of paint coatings layer by layer
• Environmental friendly operation and effective solution against Sand-blasting.
• Dust free operation.
• Spark free operation.
• Can operate even in adverse weather conditions.

Cleaning rates with 40,000 PSI (2,800 Bar pressure) water jetting are as good as –or better than those of abrasive blasting, but 98%less residue left behind. Abrasive blasting also leaves over 1,500times as many airborne lead particulates, according to a 1998 report by the National Shipbuilding Research Program.
