Abstract

A cleaning system for cleaning the inside of fluid conduting tubing (14). The cleaning system includes a plurality of balls (26) entrained by a fluid flowing through the system, separation apparatus (28) for separating the balls (26) from the fluid downstream of the tubing (14), accumulator apparatus (60) for accumulating the balls downstream of the separation apparatus (28), storage apparatus (62) for storing a volume of injection fluid and a compressor (64) for selectively providing a supply of compressed air into the storage apparatus (62) such that a portion of the volume of injection fluid passes through the accumulator apparatus (60) for entraining some of the balls (26) therewith for injection upstream of the tubing (14).
