ESP cleaning with sonic horn

Acoustic Cleaning of ESP to Maximize Efficiency

Sonic horn installed for electrostatic precipitator can clean following components to maintain its top performance.

• Remove dust/ash buildup on emitting/collecting electrodes.
• Clean deposits on baffle plate or turning vanes to keep free and uniform flow distribution.
• Prevent bridging, ratholing at ESP hopper outlet.
• Acoustic cleaning for overall dust collection efficiency.
  
  

Powered by compressed air, sonic horn can optimize cleaning performance by settings of PLC control program and signal. At periodic interval, alternating sound intensity is applied to electrodes, baffle plate, ash hopper to de-bond ash buildup. Dislodged ashes falls down to hopper and is conveyed away by conveyor.

Features

• Low frequency, high intensity sound wave can cover electrodes, baffle plate ignoring obstacles.
• Acoustic cleaning instead of mechanical rapping. No damage to ESP parts.
• Reduce adhesion and bonding between ash to ash or ash to ESP parts.
• Cause acoustic fatigue to buildup on electrodes and peel them off from electrodes to ensure efficiency of emission control.
• Fluidize dusts/ashes in hopper to avoid blockage.
• Low maintenance, low cost.
  
  

Application

Wide use for ESP in cement plant (lime kiln, cement kiln), power plant, iron ore sintering, etc.
