The Pneumat Systems Cardox CO2 Blaster produces a controlled release of liquid CO2 at up to 34 000 psi with the power to break concrete, coal and other rock-hard materials, clearing blockages, plugs and chokes in preheater towers, silos, kilns and bins. Pneumat’s Cardox CO2 Blasting System is simple, efficient and reliable, effectively making misfires a thing of the past. Because Cardox does not present a fire hazard, the system is widely used in locations where dust, chemicals or hazardous combustible materials are present.
During the process, high-pressure CO2 is instantly released through ports of the discharge head, creating a powerful force that dislodges tons of blockage in less than a second. Once fired, the Cardox tube is rebuilt with a new Cardox safety heater, shear disc and sealing washer, and recharged with CO2 for another use. Pneumat’s Rapid-Fill Pump and Auto-Fill Head have revolutionised how Cardox tubes are filled, making the process simple, fast and convenient.
In addition, Pneumat’s qualified, experienced technicians are available to assist with questions, as well as provide comprehensive on-site training.
