Hydraulic Pipeline Flushers

 


horz. bar

Flusher design converts ordinary water into a powerful, directed force with jet action to loosen and flush pipeline.

Powerful Hydraulic Force And
Jet Action Flushes Pipeline Clear

Clear Sand and Heavy Debris

  1. Insert Flusher above debris with outlet nozzle pointing upstream.
  2. Turn on water full force, allowing build-up.
  3. Turn off water. Remove Flusher. Upstream force increases flow to flush sewer clean.

Flexibility
Deflated Hydraulic Pipeline Flusher easily navigates bends and small openings.

Custom Configurations
Custom products have been manufactured for many high temperature and severe chemical applications. Please contact a Petersen engineer to discuss your requirements.

Opening Clogged Sewers

  1. Insert Flusher at point where there are no branches or outlets between the Flusher and obstruction.
  2. Connect Flusher to water hose (hose diameter must be larger than outlet diameter of Flusher).
  3. Turn on water full force. Flusher will inflate, blocking sewer to prevent backflow. Water force and jet action will flush pipeline clear.

GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS

High Strength Flexible Materials
Inflatable Hydraulic Pipeline Flusher is made from very high strength flexible woven and non-woven materials.

Multi-Size Applications
Petersen Hydraulic Pipeline Flushers may be used in any pipeline larger than the deflated diameter and smaller than inflated diameter.

Light Weight
Allows one person insertion for most sizes and applications.

Under Water Placement
Small deflated size allows removal of air for easier insertion in pipeline filled with water.

Most Sizes Available
Standard sizes are generally in stock up to 48" diameter with larger sizes available in just a few days.

Clear Sand & Debris

  1. Insert Flusher above debris with outlet pointed up stream
  2. Turn on water full force allowing water head build up
  3. Turn off water and remove Flusher; the released head of water clears pipeline

Clear Obstructed Sewer

  1. Insert Flusher above debris with outlet pointed down stream
  2. Turn on water full force allowing water to expand Flusher
  3. Water flow and pressure builds between Flusher and blockage clearing sewer

*Warning:  When used as an inflatable plug, inflate only to 25% of the flushing perssure!  Maximum head pressures that a pipe plug may restrain can only be estimated. Slippage is influenced by many factors including fluid in the pipe, coefficient of pipeline friction, pressure required to inflate the plug, and accuracy of pressure gauges. Generally, a Multi-Flex TM Inflatable Plug inserted fully into pipeline will begin slipping between 50% and 80% of the inflation pressure if it has an inflated pipe contact length of 1 ½ to 2 times the diameter, but even a head of 50% of the inflation pressure may cause slippage with some liquids. The inflation pressure is also subject to temperature change and debris or protrusions in the pipeline that could rupture the plug. The inflation pressure should be monitored and plugs anchored and/or mechanically blocked when slippage may cause property damage or injury.  NEVER use a test pressure greater than the capacity of the weakest pipe or component in the system. NEVER use an inflatable plug when its failure would cause injury.
