ABSTRACT:
A method for cleaning a processing tube is performed by an apparatus providing a vacuum and a flow of an inert gas. The flow of the inert gas dislodges particles from the tube surface and assists in carrying the particles to the vacuum. The vacuum is centered in the tube, thus preventing the sides of the tube from being scraped. Wheels are attached to the vacuum means to facilitate cleaning of the tube.
