Surface Cleaning
Al Khamis Equipment LLC UAE provides machines suited specifically for surface cleaning. Surface cleaning using water jetting can be done on virtually any surface, remove any type of deposit & is very controllable.
Surface Cleaning
What is Surface Cleaning?
Surface cleaning involves the removal of dust, dirt, varnish and other debris from the surface of an object. Surface Cleaning allows us to clean surfaces, remove coatings, or strip contaminants from a surface. It is an essential step in various industries and applications to ensure cleanliness, prepare surfaces for further treatment or coating, or maintain a visually appealing appearance.
Applications
Applications of Surface Cleaning
Industrial Cleaning:
Surface Cleaning is used for industrial purposes like cleaning industrial equipment, machinery, pipelines, tanks, and surfaces in industries such as manufacturing, oil and gas, petrochemicals, and food processing.
Construction and Renovation:
Surface Cleaning is used for clean surfaces during construction projects, removing dirt, grime, or coatings from building facades, bridges, concrete structures, and roads.
Automotive:
Water jetting is used to clean vehicle exteriors, aircraft surfaces, engine parts, and various components during manufacturing or maintenance processes.
Ship Hull Cleaning:
Surface Cleaning is used to clean marine vessel hulls, removing barnacles, algae, and other marine growth to improve fuel efficiency and prevent corrosion.
Water Jetting Machines
Water Jetting Machines for Surface Cleaning
Water jetting can be used to clean virtually any surface & remove any type of deposit & is very controllable. It can be as delicate or aggressive as required by adjusting pressure, flow, type of nozzle, stand-off distance & traverse speed. Low volumes of water are used & unlike other methods such as grit blasting, there is minimal clean up after the job is done. Depending on the application, fresh or seawater can be used as the cleaning medium. One advantage of water jetting equipment is that a typical contractor size pump (60lpm at 1000bar) can be used for a wide variety of cleaning applications by selecting the correct accessory. For example, if working in a refinery, the same pump can be used for heat exchanger cleaning, pipe cleaning, vessel cleaning, drain cleaning, cold cutting, surface preparation & general plant cleaning.
