Parallel Downflow
Construction
- Trays: Type 430 SS, pan type, one piece
- Water distributor: 316 Stn. Stl. Lock-N-Load® Spray Nozzles
- Design pressure: As required
- Deaerator top: Welded Steel Plate, ASME stamped
- Storage tanks: Welded Steel Plate, ASME stamped
- Vent condenser: Direct Contact Type with Stainless Steel baffling
Advantages
- Deaerator performs equally well between the extremes of 100% make-up water (below 50° F) and mostly hot condensate as well as substantial flashing returns
- Handles higher steam flows through the tray stack. Requires the lowest temperature differential of any deaerator to meet operating warranty; typically 20° F or less
- Water seal between trays and the spray section eliminates direct impingement of the spray on the trays and insures even distribution of the water over the tray stack
- Use of trays with less open area than required in counterflow operation maximizes spilling edge and exposes a greater surface of the water to the stripping action of the steam
- Optimized mixing plus higher steam velocity results in maximum gas removal efficiency
- Genuine two stage deaeration
