Description
Hydraulic Rotary Brush Machine Design
The Lifa Air Hydmaster40 is the number one professional choice for large-sized ductwork cleaning, especially when an exceptional cleaning force is required. It is a patented hydraulic rotary brush machine that is available at 110 or 230V voltages and delivers 10Nm of torque, nearly double the power of any other rotary brush machine.
The unit may be used to clean ductwork ranging from 300-1200mm in size and can clean all ductwork shapes, rectangular, circular and oval. The hydraulic rotary brush machine has a 40m cleaning shaft, which is both strong and flexible. Brush rotation speed up to 650rpm is easily controlled by a speed control dial.
This machine has proved incredibly popular in the UK market for kitchen exhaust cleaning in accordance with TR19, but it is also used for large ductwork cleaning projects in other environments such as marine, medical, and pharmaceutical. Hydmaster40 is manufactured by Lifa Air to ISO9001 and ISO14001 standards and is CE marked.
Operation
The hydraulic rotary brush motor is incredibly quiet when in operation and delivers consistent power for ductwork cleaning. Brush rotation is controlled by a foot pedal; this can be linked to an optional remote control if necessary. Brush speed is controlled from 340-650rpm by a speed dial on the machine control box. An emergency stop button is fitted to the control box for immediate shut-off.
Circular, rectangular and oval ductwork shapes may be cleaned by changing the brush shape and material at the brush end connection. Rectangular ductwork may require a specialist tool to clean into the corners of the ductwork called the two-brush triangle gear.
Machine operation is usually a two-person operation, but with a remote control, it is possible to operate with one person. The machine reduces the need for manual entry and confined space work to clean ductwork systems in accordance with TR19 and BS15780.
George Friend –
Ventilation Surveys & Services Ltd purchased a Hydmaster40 from Hasman 5 years ago in 2013. The unit has been regularly used on both kitchen ductwork cleaning and general HVAC cleaning projects without issue. The machine is heavy, but the hydraulic motor is very powerful which saves time on large jobs and kitchen extract riser cleans. The system is very easy to use, the majority of our 50 site staff have used this machine without issue or breakdown. We also own Special Cleaner 25 and Special Cleaner 20 machines for smaller jobs but they are far less powerful than this unit.
