General info
Payback within 6-24 months after implementation
Our Infrafone cleaners (low-frequency acoustic cleaning) improves the profitability of boilers. This has been achieved thru more efficient soot cleaning in e.g. economizers, air-preheaters and catalysts (SCR’s), with a general payback time of about 6 to 24 months. Traditional soot cleaning technologies such as steam sootblowing, shot cleaning, sonic cleaning (high frequency), and manual cleaning are generally heavily reduced or eliminated in these applications.
Our range of products is the result of our unique knowledge and our customer focus. We calculate the optimal size and design of the acoustic cleaner for each customer’s particular need and the spatial possibilities of each installation.

Infrasound cleaning case studies
Ryaverket AP1 – AP2, Borås Sweden
A case study and results from our infrasound cleaning installation on a WtE boiler at Ryaverket. At Ryaverket, Steam soot blowing was previously used three times per day in the economizers.
Tidaholms energi, Tidaholm Sweden
At Tidaholms Energi, Compressed air soot blowing is installed but relatively ineffective because of the valves being mounted on the turning chamber, far away from the problem area. This results in the air pressure not reaching the problem area.
Finspångs tekniska verk, Finspång Sweden
A case study and results of an infrasound installation at Finspångs tekniska verk. Before installing the infrasound generator at Finspångs tekniska verk, there were two audible sonic horns installed on the smoke tube boiler.
Sandviken Energi, Storvik Sweden
At Sandviken Energi, The smoke tube boiler produces the basis of Storvik’s district heating. There was previously no soot cleaning equipment installed on the boiler.
