The CaviBlaster 1725-E Cavitation Cleaner represents a new benchmark in safe, effective, and non-destructive underwater cleaning. Engineered to deliver advanced cavitation technology at a higher flow rate than earlier electric models, this unit offers exceptional cleaning efficiency without compromising coatings, paintwork, or structural integrity.
Developed for professional marine, offshore, and industrial environments, the 1725-E model builds upon the proven performance of its predecessor, the 1625-E, and provides a practical upgrade in terms of power and operational versatility. Whether mounted on a skid or a mobile cart, or supplied in a diesel-powered variant, this equipment provides unmatched flexibility and reliability for commercial divers, ship maintenance crews, and marine contractors.
In this article, we’ll explore what sets the CaviBlaster 1725-E apart, how cavitation cleaning works, and why it has become a preferred solution for underwater cleaning operations worldwide.
What Is Cavitation Cleaning?
Cavitation cleaning harnesses the power of controlled micro-explosions. When water is pressurised and expelled through the specially designed nozzle, it forms microscopic bubbles. These cavitation bubbles collapse rapidly when they strike a surface, releasing energy that dislodges and removes fouling, corrosion, biofilms, and marine growth — all without the abrasive impact or surface damage associated with traditional high-pressure washing or grit blasting.
This technology is particularly valuable in sectors where preserving protective coatings and reducing downtime is critical. Cavitation cleaning is ideal for:
- Ship hulls and propellers
- Offshore platform structures
- Marine intake pipes and grids
- Underwater archaeological surfaces
- Subsea ROV support frames
- Commercial diving cleaning operations
Introducing the CaviBlaster 1725-E: Precision Power and Versatility
Model Overview
- Model: CaviBlaster 1725-E Cavitation Cleaner
- Ordering Code: CBlast1725E
- Weight: 370kg
- Dimensions: L 1400mm × W 760mm × H 940mm
- Drive: 3 Phase 208-230V / 460V electric motor

The 1725-E replaces the outgoing 1625-E model, delivering increased flow rate while maintaining the operating pressure required to generate high-intensity cavitation. Compared to the smaller 1222 unit, the 1725-E generates more cavitation bubbles over a broader surface area, significantly improving cleaning speed and performance.
Key Features of the CaviBlaster 1725-E
1. Increased Cleaning Efficiency
The increased flow rate (64 litres per minute) allows for broader cleaning coverage, making it ideal for time-sensitive underwater operations. Whether working on large vessel hulls or subsea assets, the 1725-E shortens the time needed to achieve complete surface cleaning.
2. Non-Destructive to Coatings and Substrates
Operating at lower pressures than conventional pressure washers, the CaviBlaster 1725-E is specifically designed to avoid damage to paints, coatings, and anti-fouling layers. This makes it the preferred tool in applications where coatings must remain intact after cleaning.
At the same time, it retains the strength and energy concentration necessary to clean down to bare metal if required — providing flexibility for surface preparation or corrosion removal.
3. Electric Drive for Quiet, Clean Operation
The 1725-E runs on a three-phase electric motor, offering cleaner operation, reduced noise, and lower maintenance compared to petrol or diesel alternatives. For environmentally sensitive areas, shipyards, or enclosed operations, this is a major advantage.
4. Flexible Configuration Options
The CaviBlaster 1725-E can be supplied in either a skid-mount format or with a 4-wheel cart, allowing for easier transport and setup depending on site conditions. For remote or fuel-based operations, a diesel-powered version is also available, providing the same performance with greater autonomy.
Applications Across the Marine and Subsea Industries
The CaviBlaster 1725-E is suitable for a broad range of commercial and industrial use cases:
● Commercial Diving Operations
Cavitation cleaning tools are now standard in commercial diving kits. The 1725-E provides divers with a highly controllable and effective cleaning tool, reducing diver fatigue and improving productivity during hull inspections, platform maintenance, or port cleaning.
● Ship and Vessel Maintenance
The system can be deployed dockside, at anchorage, or during dry-dock to clean hulls, rudders, thrusters, and propellers without damaging anti-fouling coatings. It improves vessel hydrodynamics and fuel efficiency by removing biofouling and barnacle growth.
● Offshore Structures
Offshore wind farms, oil and gas platforms, and subsea installations all require regular cleaning for inspection and maintenance. The 1725-E enables safer cleaning without structural impact, ideal for sensitive subsea assets.
● Environmental and Archaeological Work
For underwater structures or historical wrecks, traditional pressure washing is often too aggressive. Cavitation cleaning allows for the careful removal of biological or mineral build-up without causing material loss.
