The Clyde Bergemann Model D5E (Electric) and D5M (Manual) Rotary Sootblowers offer dependability in boiler cleaning and ease in operation. The D5 Rotary has been part of the Copes Vulcan (Sootblower Division purchased By Clyde Bergemann in 1997) product line for many years with thousands of units providing excellent service worldwide. The D5 Rotary features a simple design concept, which equates to minimal maintenance cost and trouble free operation.

The Clyde Bergemann Model D5 rotary sootblower is designed to clean convection surfaces of packaged or field erected industrial boilers. The blowing element of this type sootblower remains in the boiler at all times, supported by element bearings usually attached to the boiler tubes. Specially designed nozzles are located on the element (as required) for each specific installation. Saturated or superheated steam, as well as compressed air, may be used as the blowing medium. The D5 can operate in temperatures up to 1800 F with the proper choice of element material. To prevent infiltration of corrosive furnace gases through the element to the valve assembly, a scavenging air check valve is furnished as standard equipment on the D5 rotary sootblower. For pressurized furnaces a purging airline from a source of higher pressure than the furnace is connected to the scavenging air valve.

We have a wide range of materials available to meet the requirement for any application, from plain carbon steel, to high temperature alloys such as HR-160. Element sizes are 1 ½” and 2” pipe. Element support bearings in matching materials will be supplied.The sootblower can be configured for full or partial blowing rotation in either a clockwise or counter clockwise direction
