Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for cleaning the inner walls of metallic line systems by electropolishing with the aid of moving electrodes.
  • a hollow profile which consists of a conductive anode body and attached spacers made of non-conductive material.
  • CH-PS 396561 devices for the electrolytic polishing of surfaces of metallic objects are known, in which a cathode on a surface connected as an anode to be treated, for. B. is moved along an inner wall of a tube.
  • the cathode body can have the shape of a truncated cone and, for centering in the tube to be treated, can be provided with projecting parts made of insulating material, which abut the inner wall of the tube. The cathode is pulled from bottom to top through the vertical tube.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a device with which a metallic pipe system can be cleaned without having to disassemble it.
  • Under piping system should be understood here: a system of straight and curved pipes, including the associated shut-off devices, such as. B. ball valves, slide or the like. Rising or falling pipes should also be able to be cleaned successfully with the device.
  • the device should in particular be usable for the decontamination of radioactive contaminated line systems.
  • the object is achieved according to the invention by a device which has an elastic. electrode consisting of a spiral wire or a coiled ribbon, as well as a plurality of insulating spacers arranged at least fixedly or displaceably on the electrode in the electrode area.
  • the electrodes Due to the elasticity of the electrodes, an adaptation to curved surfaces is possible. As a result, disassembly of the pipes to be polished is no longer necessary, and it is possible to work with elbows and sliders as well as in inclined lines.
  • FIG. 2 shows another embodiment of the device according to the invention, in which the electrode 4a is designed in the form of a coiled stainless steel strip.
  • an approximately 300 mm long electrode 4a was produced, which was fitted with spacers 5 and 6 made of Teflon registered trademark.
  • the line system 1 was placed in a large tub filled with an electrolyte of phosphoric and sulfuric acid, and the electrode 4a was pulled through at a speed of 5 cm / min. Direct current of 10-20 A / dm 2 was used. In this way it was possible to achieve a decontamination factor of around 500.
