CONNECTING THE ROTOMAG X22
The Rotomag X22 is generally mounted to a rigid lance or a flexible hose for clean-
ing pipes. It can be used with a centralizer and can be fitted with nozzle extensions.
See Appendix B of the Rotomag X22 PI (PI-078) for applicable accessories.
Prior to connecting the Rotomag X22, engage the pump to flush out any system
debris. Ensure all Rotomag X22 connections are securely tightened.
NOZZLE INSTALLATION
The Rotomag X22 uses up to 8 flush-mounted tungsten carbide RM nozzles or
sapphire RMS nozzles. Refer to the charts in Appendix B of the Rotomag X22 PI
(PI-078) for the proper flow rate for your application.
NOTE: It is strongly recommended the Rotomag X22 be used with a BALANCED
(same size nozzles) combination of nozzles. Failing to do so may reduce the life of
the tool.
Configurations of 2, 4, 6, or 8 nozzles are available using the different combinations
of nozzles and plugs. Rotomag X22 nozzles can be installed in either the 90 degree
ports or the 45 degree forward ports, or both sets of ports simultaneously. Nozzle
extensions can be installed in all ports. When nozzles are installed in both the 90
degree and 45 degree ports the Rotomag X22 will spin faster. There are two sets of
radial ports marked ‘HS’ for high speed and ‘LS’ for low speed.
1. New Rotomag X22 comes with nozzle plugs installed. Determine nozzle
configuration to be used and remove plugs (if needed) using a 3/16” hex
key.
2. For Rotomag X22 (1/2”-28 UNEF): If plugs are to be used, apply anti-seize
compound to male threads and install into correct ports using 3/16” hex key.
Tighten to 50 lbs. in.
For Rotomag X22N (1/4” NPT): If plugs are to be used, apply 3-4 wraps of
Teflon thread sealant tape to male connection thread. Apply anti-seize
compound over the sealant tape and install into correct ports using 3/16”
hex key. Tighten connection 1-1/2 to 2 turns past hand tight.
3. For Rotomag X22: Apply anti-seize compound to male threads of nozzles and
install using 3/16” hex key. Tighten to 50 lbs. in.
For Rotomag X22N: Apply 3-4 wraps of Teflon thread sealant tape to male
connection thread. Apply anti-seize compound over the sealant tape install
using 3/16” hex key. Tighten connection 1-1/2 to 2 turns past hand tight.
FOR 22,500 PSI OPERATION (3/4” MP FML INLET)
1. Apply anti-seize compound to the threads and cone on the 3/4” MP male
connection.
2. Install the Rotomag X22 and tighten to 90 lbs. ft.
FOR 15,000 PSI OPERATION (NPT FML INLET)
Use a female NPT to male 3/4” MP adapter for 15,000 psi operation.
1. Apply 3-4 wraps of Teflon thread sealant tape to the male connection
thread (NOT adapter).
2. Apply anti-seize compound over the sealant tape for protection against galling
in connection threads.
3. Tighten the connection 1-1/2 to 2 turns past hand tight. All NPT pipe connec-
tions should have a minimum thread engagement of (4) threads.
4. Apply anti-seize compound to the threads and cone on the male end of the
adapter.
NOTE: Do not use Teflon tape.
5. Install the Rotomag X22 onto the adapter and tighten to 90 lbs. ft.
OPERATION
DANGER
!!
The Rotomag X22 nozzle’s discharge jet(s) can inflict serious bodily
wounds. Use only thoroughly trained operators to perform cleaning
operations with the Rotomag X22.
The Rotomag X22, with the flush-mounted nozzles, rotates between 30 and 600
rpm. Optional nozzle extensions can be used to slow the Rotomag X22’s rotation
while bringing the nozzles closer to the cleaning surface.
!!CAUTION
A centralizing device is strongly recommended when using nozzle
extensions to prevent damage to the extensions of the Rotomag X22.
!!CAUTION
An anti-withdrawal device (backout preventer) should be used to
prevent the tool from accidently exiting the pipe under high pressure.
Hose restraints (whip checks) should be used at all high pressure hose
connections including the fluid end discharge. Refer to the charts in
Appendix B of the Rotomag X22 PI (PI-078) for a list of backout preven-
ters.
ATTENTION
The person controlling the cleaning nozzle must be the operator
and must have control of the pressure. Do not allow a secondary or
remote operator to have control of the pressure.
1. Place barricades with warning signs or barricade tape around work area.
This includes the waterblast unit and all high-pressure hoses.
2. The operator must be outfitted with Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
OSHA guidelines for Personal Protective Equipment are available in document
number 3151-12R 2004, which can be obtained from www.osha.gov.
!!CAUTION
DO NOT use the Rotomag X22 if it has not been cleaned and inspected
prior to starting the working shift.
