The manual cleaning method for the bulkheads has issues. It is inefficient, labor-intensive, and the results are poor. It is hard to clean the cabin on schedule, especially with a tight ship schedule. The rise in high-pressure water blasters’ market share has made them the top choice for cleaning. They are efficient, cost-effective, safe, and eco-friendly. High-pressure water blasters can clean the cabin. They avoid the downsides of manual scrubbing.
A high-pressure water blaster is a machine. It uses a power device to make a high-pressure plunger pump generate high-pressure water to wash surfaces. It can peel off and wash away dirt to achieve the purpose of cleaning the surface of an object. Using a high-pressure water blaster to clean the cabin can cut down on manual scrubbing. It uses water, so it won’t corrode, pollute, or damage anything.
How to use
1. Before high-pressure water blaster the cabin, first select a suitable machine for the area. Then, check each component of the cleaner for stability. Adjust the pressure, flow and other parameters before construction;
2. During cleaning, the person wears work clothes and safety belts. They hold a high-pressure overflow gun to work. The high-pressure pump produces high-pressure water. It sprays it from the rotating nozzle of the high-pressure water gun. The high-pressure water jet blasts the cabin’s surface. Its great power quickly removes residue, oil, rust, and other substances.
3. After cleaning, the residual substances on the operation site are processed. It can be dried naturally or quickly blow-dried with equipment. Then, the cabin can be reused.
Marine high-pressure water blaster machines face a more complex use environment than those on land. To extend the machine’s life and ensure it works, follow these daily use and maintenance tips.
Maintenance Tips
First, use fresh water and pure water! Only seawater-specific machines can use seawater!
Many operators, due to water intake and cleaning costs, will directly take seawater. They don’t know this will cause equipment failures! After using it several times, seawater sediment will build up in the pump. This will increase the resistance of the plunger and crankshaft. The motor load will rise, and it will shorten the life of the high-pressure pump and motor! At the same time, the damage to the filter, gun valve, etc. is also higher than when using fresh water! If it’s inconvenient to take water, occasional use won’t matter. But, the right way is to flush with fresh water for 3-5 minutes after use. This removes all the seawater in the pump, gun, pipe, filter, and other components! When using seawater frequently, all seawater-specific pumps must be used!
Second, the oil in the pump must be replaced regularly!
For models with a pressure over 350bar, use 75-80/80-90 gear oil. For those with a pressure under 300bar, use regular gasoline engine oil. Remember not to add diesel engine oil! When changing the engine oil, watch the oil level. It should be 2/3 full in the oil mirror and window. If not, you risk serious accidents, such as cylinder pulling and crankcase explosions!
Third, you must pay attention to the stability of the ship’s electricity!
The power supply’s stability will affect the machine’s operation! Many ships generate their own electricity. So, the voltage will be unstable during the power supply. This will affect the machine’s normal operation! Be sure to ensure that the voltage is stable!
Fourth, watch the machine’s storage. Prevent the motor from getting damp or wet!
This problem has occurred many times. The marine environment is harsh. Improper storage makes it worse. The motor will smoke and burn if it gets damp or wet.
Fifth, After each use, keep the machine running.
Disconnect the water supply first. Then, turn off the gun and shut down after 1 minute. The main purpose is to reduce internal pressure and water. This will ease the load on the pump and other parts. After use, wipe off the water stains to prevent rust (except for stainless steel frames)!
Sixth, be sure to read the instructions before use.
If you have questions or problems, please contact the dealer or factory. Unauthorized modification may cause safety hazards!
