Applied Surface Technologies

A new CO2 Snow Jet unit featuring small tube nozzles with solenoid control with the option of a covering gas. Three tube nozzles come with these units representing low, medium, and high flow. Those the nozzles operate well for liquid CO2, and they also function for CO2 gas feed. This allows for 6 flow rates and a range of cleaning choices. With CO2 gas feed, the stream is reduced and is great for particle removal with minimal surface cooling. With CO2 liquid feed, both particles and hydrocarbons are removed. The two units differ in that the K6 version comes with a dual gas nozzle that allows for a dry inert gas to surround the CO2 stream to assist and eliminate moisture issues. Application situation range from dusting of optics for sensor chips to stain removal along with all the other CO2 snow applications as shown on www.co2clean.com. The unit, K6-10DG-T, has an additional nozzle for a dry covering gas too. Prices start about 2K.
