ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for cleaning radioactive tube banks which have open ends contained in a plane, preferably for cleaning the tube banks of tube bank condensers, includes a high-pressure hose, which is pushed through each of the tubes and which at its free end carries a spray nozzle for discharging a cleaning liquid. The hose is disposed between and positively or non-positively coupled to two feed wheels and is advanced and retracted by the feed wheels in a direction which is parallel to the tubes. The feed wheels are provided with a hose drive and mounted in a cleaning carriage, which is movable by a carriage drive in a plane which is defined by a frame. The cleaning carriage is fixed in cleaning positions, and the frame is provided with a device for fixing the frame to the tube bank.
