Hydroblasting

Smith Industrial Services has a complete line of hydroblasting equipment with pumps ranging from 3,000 to 40,000 psi

Hydroblasting, also known as high-pressure water washing, is a highly effective and safe method for cleaning a wide range of surfaces, including both interior and exterior areas, as well as various equipment such as heat exchangers and vessels. This widely utilized industrial cleaning service can be applied to virtually any process plant or customer facility.


By utilizing water at different pressures and flow rates, hydroblasting effectively removes deposits, foulants, and other accumulated materials. This process not only ensures thorough cleaning but also helps to restore the efficiency of processes and heat transfer, ultimately leading to reduced operating costs for customers.


The cleaning process involves utilizing a range of pressures, typically between 10,000 to 40,000 pounds per square inch (psi), and a flow rate of 10 to 150 gallons per minute (gpm). In cases where higher pressures are required, we can utilize ultra-high-pressure equipment operating at 36,000 to 40,000psi. Additionally, automated, and semi-robotic systems are employed in certain applications to enhance efficiency and enable cleaning in hard-to-reach areas. These automated systems also minimize operator exposure to high-pressure water, ensuring safety during the cleaning process.


Specialized systems are available for cleaning specific equipment such as heat exchanger bundles, boilers, suction rolls, and air heaters. With hydroblasting, customers can rely on a cost-effective and reliable method for maintaining the cleanliness and efficiency of their industrial processes.
