Cardox provides the ultimate solution for clearing build-up and blockages
in silos, bins, hoppers and most storage vessels. A Cardox Tube can be inserted into the troubled area from the outside of the bin or hopper removing the need for a worker to go inside. An electrical charge releases compressed carbon dioxide to dislodge the stuck material.
Carbon dioxide gas is an inert gas that is commonly used in fire extinguishers, so it is safe to use without fear of generating secondary reaction with gases in the vessel / silo. In addition, the quick release of the gas refrigerates the discharge, bringing it to a temperature low enough to avoid ignition of any air-gas mixture inside the blocked vessel.
Cardox
has a variety of different tubes for specific applications. Tubes are
filled with liquid carbon dioxide (exactly the same as a fire extinguisher).
When energized by the application of a small electrical charge, the chemical
heater instantly converts the liquid carbon dioxide to a gas.
This conversion expands the CO2 volume and builds up pressure inside the
tube until it causes the rupture disc at the end of the tube to burst.
This releases the C02 - now 660 times the original volume - through a
special discharge nozzle to create a powerful heaving force, at pressures
up to 40,000 psi (3,000 bar). This all takes place in milliseconds.
Simple, secure coupling devices are mounted on the equiptment in areas
of known build-up, which allows you to set the Cardox Tube to a predetermined
depth and discharge direction.
The Ultimate Solution
Cardox can be applied either through
small sockets mounted onto the vessel wall or through inspection hatches
around the silo. Nobody needs to enter the vessel and Cardox Tubes can be discharged away from the vessel area.
- Capital Costs
Many customers report that Cardox has paid for itself after a single application.
- Operational Costs
Since Cardox has no continuous running costs, you can build-up other areas of your business.
- Maintenance Costs
There are virtually no maintenance costs.
