Rigid And Rotary Hand Lances

RHL Lances

For efficient tube bundle cleaning, NLB combines a rigid lance with a rotary hand lance, or air-activated high-pressure rotating SPIN JET® seal. The combination of high-pressure water and the spinning motion cleans even the most severely clogged tubes.

The rotary hand lance may also be used in applications where a polished tube is required. It should be used with the NLB Foot Control Valve for maximum control of the high-pressure jet.

FEATURES/BENEFITS:

• All wetted parts of stainless steel construction.

• Inexpensive repair kits available for fast, easy field maintenance.

• SPIN JET seal enclosed in steel case with convenient carrying handle.

• Fast-acting air valve provided for speed control.

Rigid Lances

Ideal for all heat exchanger, condenser and boiler tube cleaning operations, NLB’s rigid lance may also be used for pipe cleaning. It is available in various diameters and in lengths up to 20 feet (6 m). It can be assembled, with couplings, to longer lengths.

Optional hand guides (BL13033) help an operator position the lance, and support it without slowing the rotation speed.

Tube Lancers

NLB's automated and semi-automated tube lancers clean heat exchangers up to three times faster than manual methods, while minimizing operator exposure to risk.
They guide a rigid or flexible high-pressure lance, or lances, in and out of tubes. An operator controls the process without having to touch the high-pressure lance. Four standard models are available.

FEATURES/BENEFITS:

• Higher productivity rates than manual cleaning.

• Minimizes operator exposure to debris and high-pressure water.

• Simplifies cleaning of tubes up to 30' (9.1 m) long
