Kärcher Dry Ice Blaster IB 15/120 110V: Industrial-Grade Cleaning Power for North American Applications
The Kärcher Dry Ice Blaster IB 15/120 110V delivers exceptional industrial cleaning performance specifically configured for North American electrical systems. This specialized 110V version maintains all the powerful cleaning capabilities of Karcher’s premium dry ice blasting technology while offering compatibility with standard North American power supplies. Perfect for manufacturing facilities, food processing plants, automotive workshops, and industrial environments where traditional cleaning methods prove inadequate or impractical.
North American Voltage Compatibility
The 110V configuration of the Kärcher IB 15/120 ensures seamless integration into North American industrial environments without requiring additional power conversion equipment. This specialized model maintains the same robust performance characteristics as the standard version while offering plug-and-play functionality with existing 110V industrial power infrastructure. For facilities in the United States, Canada, and other 110V regions, this version eliminates compatibility concerns and simplifies implementation.
Professional-Grade Dry Ice Blasting Technology
The IB 15/120 110V harnesses advanced dry ice blasting principles to deliver non-abrasive, chemical-free cleaning. The process accelerates solid carbon dioxide pellets at high velocity toward contaminated surfaces. Upon impact, three distinct cleaning mechanisms work in concert:
Kinetic impact dislodges surface contaminants Thermal shock creates micro-fractures in the contamination layer Sublimation expansion as dry ice converts directly from solid to gas
This powerful combination effectively removes stubborn industrial residues including hardened oils, greases, carbon deposits, paint, adhesives, biological contaminants, and production residues without generating secondary waste or causing damage to underlying surfaces.
Industrial Performance and Durability
Engineered for demanding industrial applications, the Kärcher IB 15/120 110V features robust construction capable of withstanding harsh working environments. The precision-engineered components ensure reliable operation even with intensive daily use in challenging industrial settings. The intuitive control interface provides operators with complete command over blast pressure, pellet flow rate, and other critical parameters, allowing precise adjustment for each specific cleaning challenge.
The machine's industrial design incorporates practical features enhancing functionality and usability, including secure storage for accessories, robust transport capability, and quick-connect fittings for efficient setup. These thoughtful design elements reflect Karcher’s deep understanding of industrial cleaning requirements and operator needs.
Environmentally Responsible Cleaning Solution
The IB 15/120 110V offers significant environmental advantages compared to conventional industrial cleaning approaches:
Eliminates the need for chemical solvents and cleaners Creates no wastewater or chemical runoff Produces no secondary waste requiring disposal Reduces equipment downtime through in-place cleaning Minimizes environmental compliance concerns
For industries facing stringent environmental regulations or sustainability mandates, the dry ice blasting process provides an effective cleaning solution that supports environmental responsibility while delivering superior cleaning results.
Versatile Industrial Applications
The Kärcher IB 15/120 110V excels across numerous industrial cleaning scenarios:
Manufacturing equipment maintenance and restoration Industrial mold cleaning and preparation Production line sanitization and changeover cleaning Electrical component and panel cleaning Weld preparation and maintenance Food processing equipment deep cleaning Historical restoration and conservation projects Fire damage restoration and remediation
This versatility makes the IB 15/120 110V an invaluable addition to industrial maintenance programs across multiple sectors, particularly in North American facilities utilizing 110V power systems.

The IB 15/120 can blast up to 120kg of dry ice pellets per hour, at up to 16 bar. This makes it ideal for just about any ice blasting job, thanks to its variable pressure and flow controls. Kärcher’s dry ice blasting technology is a non aggressive but thorough method of cleaning tools, moulds, surfaces and machines with a minimum of downtime. The dry ice pellets are injected into a jet of compressed air, accelerated to speeds in excess of 150 m/s and the fired at the surface to be cleaned. The abrupt cooling of the surface causes a thermal shock and produces fine cracks in the top layer. The dry ice penetrates these cracks, lift the contaminant from the surface and return to the atmosphere as CO gas leaving only the contaminant behind. Ice blasting uses no chemicals, leaves no wastewater, is environmentally friendly and can be used in areas where cleaning with water is prohibited or inconvenient.
