Precautions of Dry Ice Cleaning

Although the dry ice cleaning method has many advantages in all aspects, there are still some problems to be noticed in the actual operation. You should pay attention to the following three points for dry ice cleaning.

1.    Removal of rust and residue from dry ice cleaning: Although dry ice cleaning does not cause surface wear, it also limits its ability to remove dirt and thick rust.

2.    Dry Ice Cleaning Noise: Like other compressed air systems, when dry ice spraying is used for mould cleaning, the general noise will reach 102 dbA, which requires better ear protection facilities.

3.    Employee Safety in Dry Ice Cleaning: If dry ice particles ejected at 900 ft/s per second are sprayed onto the human body, the human body is totally irresistible. Therefore, for safety, all protective devices must be worn before operation.

Other suggestions:

1.    For cleaning mobile objects, we must first turn off the driving power of the cleaned objects.

2.    The temperature of dry ice is -78.5 degrees. The hand must wear gloves for long term contact with dry ice to prevent burns.

3.    The jet can not point at people, and the dry ice particles sprayed will hurt people.
