Prevent your
boiler from
fouling!
New generation of Power Wave
Generators
The cost effective add-on or alternative to all known methods
of cleaning boiler and heat exchanger tubes exposed to
fly ash deposits.
Because our products are based on decades of boiler cleaning experience; both in
technology development and in operations.
Effective, affordable, safe, with low operating and maintenance costs.
We increase efficiency, reduce maintenance and decrease CO2 emissions
PROBLEM SOLVING
Our patented technology
optimizes the boiler cleaning process through automated,
variable Power Waves.
PROVEN
Boiler cleaning technologies
originally developed by Hans Rüegg,
have proven their effectiveness since 2001. The new Power Wave Generator technology (his 3rd Generation)
delivers, the most attractive results.
SUPERSONIC
Our technology is based on a
supersonic power wave that is
generated by deflagrating propane
gas and compressed air in the
Power Wave Generator.
Innovation in Boiler Cleaning
Creating Power Waves from high pressure compressed air.
Without detonation at propane combustion for super high pressure,
combined with the patented ultrafast pneumatic actuator.
P-WAVE Generator
Super-high pressure
Only propane and air
Freely adjustable pressure / power
Fully automatic
NO DETONATION at combustion
NO OXYGEN
