Steam drier, high performance cyclone type steam separators
Cyclone type steam separators can be used everywhere it is necessary to dry steam and remove mechanical contamination.
Typical areas of application include:
- Steam line systems where water droplets can form in the steam as it cools (danger of erosion in lines and fittings, danger of water hammer)
- Downstream of unregulated steam saturation systems
- Downstream of high speed steam generators, because when steam is withdrawn intermittently water can be entrained (for protection of fittings and machines such as steam turbines and steam engines)
- Upstream of steam injection nozzles for humidification in air conditioning systems (corrosion hazard for air ducts)
Cyclone type steam separators offer particular advantages through easy adaptability as a result of their compact design, minimum dimensions and differing types of fittings. Moreover all built-in fittings are immobile, eliminating virtually all wear and minimizing maintenance to ensure extremely economical operation.
