2.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The CaviBlaster 2570-D high-pressure water power unit allows the operator to use the
water flow and pressure to generate cavitation at the end of the proprietary nozzle.
The CaviBlaster cleans the surface of any underwater structure and crushes concrete
using the energy released by the implosion of the bubbles during the cavitation process.
When directed at the surface being cleaned, the energy released by the collapsing
bubbles causes marine growth to be removed from the surface.
The system consists of a portable, zero-thrust gun/guns, connecting high-pressure hose
and a diesel-powered, high-pressure pumping unit. The zero-thrust gun/guns uses a
trigger-operated valve to control the water stream on and off. If the valve is closed, the
power unit goes into bypass mode unloading the engine and the pump.
FULL LOAD is defined as the engine at full throttle / full
speed. If partially throttled, the engine will stall, creating
an undesirable running condition for the belt drive system.
The CaviBlaster 2570-D power
unit is a complete “plug and play” system built into a
self-supporting frame that allows quick deployment and/or installation of the unit. Water
can be supplied from either a pressurized source, directly from the natural source via a
belt-driven booster pump supplied with the power unit, or from a gravity feed storage
tank.
The unit is equipped with many features to maintain operator safety while operating at
pressures of 7,250-psi (500 bar).
