Arudra, in association with Specialized Overhaul Services Pty. Ltd., Australia offer tube cleaning services using this unique bullet shot method which is the fastest, most economical, safe & enviro-friendly procedure.

Technique : Spring loaded tube cleaners (Bullets) are shot through fouled Condenser Tubes using specially designed water guns at 10-15 Kg/cm2 pressure. The bullets moving through the tube from one end to the other, scrape off the deposits and corrosion scales. Water from the gun flushes out the scraped deposits resulting in a clean inside surface for the tube, ideal for good heat transfer. Tube cleaners, which exit at the other end of the condenser, are collected, cleaned and used again. Normally a bullet can be re-used 10 – 15 times.

Advantages: This is one of the quickest ways to clean the condenser tubes with the following benefits:

  • Big cost saving
  • Very limited shut down time
  • No damage to tube – hence longer tube life
  • Improved plant availability & efficiency
  • Low consumption of power & water
  • No Environmental pollution


Experience : Arudra has mastered this cleaning technique over the last decade and have cleaned millions of tubes successfully. This technique has been accepted widely by Power Plant Operators.
