Sponge Ball Size


Balls should be slightly oversized to be able to apply enough pressure inside the tube to assure a proper cleaning / wiping.  A Luxx Ultra-Tech specialist can help you determine the proper size ball to suit your requirements and conditions.

Usually we recommend ball diameters 1 mm to 2 mm larger than the I.D. (Inside Diameter) of the tube that is to be cleaned.

A smaller diameter should be selected when using an abrasive ball or when condensers are equipped with protective nozzles.  If a question should arise concerning ball selection as diameter, hardness, size or abrasives, contact your CTCS manufacturer or manual for instructions.

A larger ball can lead to ball blockage inside condenser and U/F membrane tubes, reducing heat exchanger efficiency and permeate output.  For the above reason swollen balls should not be used.

Sponge balls by Luxx Ultra-Tech are engineered to be insensitive to water with or without detergents.
