Dry ice blasting on the stator
Dry ice blasting is a form of abrasive blasting, where dry ice, the solid form of carbon dioxide, is accelerated in a pressurized air stream and directed at a surface in order to clean it. Dry ice blasting leaves no chemical residue as dry ice sublimates at room temperature.
Objective: To remove dirt and unwanted contaminants on the stator core. This process also removes the varnish stain on the stator core.
Working principles:

Dry ice blasting involves propelling pellets at extremely high speeds. The actual dry ice pellets are quite soft, and very less dense. Upon impact, the pellet sublimates almost immediately, transferring minimal kinetic energy to the surface on impact and producing minimal abrasion.

Dry ice blasting - air compressor
The sublimation process absorbs a large volume of heat from the surface, producing shear stresses due to thermal shock. This is assumed to improve cleaning as the top layer of dirt or contaminant is expected to transfer more heat than the underlying substrate and flake off more easily. The efficiency and effectiveness of this process depends on the thermal conductivity of the substrate and contaminant.
