The first of its kind in the industry, our robot can record videos and images of blockages, concerns and the cleaning taking place whilst automatically adjusting to tubes.

The robot can be programmed with information supplied by the customer, creating a visual representation of the bundle. The best cleaning process is then selected, which can be pre-programmed into the robot.

The robot can bring assets back to original design thermal efficiency regardless of the level of fouling, dramatically reducing CO2 emissions.

Pros & Limitations

More than 90% clean as standard

Reduced downtime

Maintain asset integrity

Unrivalled cleaning results regardless of level or type of fouling

Reduced CO2 and NOx emissions

No man entry, ensuring optimum safety

Real-time inspection and verification

Brings assets back to original design thermal efficiency

Can be more expensive than traditional methods

Specification

Specification Title	Specification Description
Areas of Application	Fired heater bundle convection bank \| Heat exchanger cleaning \| Petrochemical plants \| Refining assets
Capabilities	The system is capable of fitting different size assets and will not need to be rebuilt for each asset.
Certifications / licences	Patented design.
Compliance	The robot is built for low voltage areas and can be approved for use through standard site Permit system.
Hands free operating	The robot is able to remotely access process plant assets.
Implementation time	The robotic technology drastically reduces set-up time and often requires less operators to complete the job.
Non man entry	The system is a robotic rover that allows for non man entry into the furnace areas.
Return on Investment	Return of investment is significant. CO2 emissions are reduced and productivity is restored to a greater extent than using traditional cleaning methods.
