ABSTRACT:
A sootblower includes a supply tube for delivering fluid to a concentrically mounted lance tube. The lance tube reciprocates into and out of a boiler delivering fluid to clean the inside surface. Deformable packing between the inside surface of the lance tube and the outside surface of the supply tube prevents the escape of the cleaning fluid from the system. A follower gland is biased into engagement with the packing to maintain its seal when the packing wears. The bias is provided by a plurality of coil springs trapped between a pair of plates, flanges or washers suitably connected to the gland. A plurality of covered apertures in one of the flanges allows the insertion or removal of some of the springs to provide the desired degree of compression to the packing.
