When a steam boiler is in operation there is continuous evaporation of boiler water wich causes an undesirable increase in TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) concentration. A typical problem that results from this is water foaming, which leads to reduce boiler performance and wet steam. Furthermore, dissolved and suspended solids will carry over into the steam lines, contaminating valves, tubes, heat exchangers and steam traps, leading to corrosion, scaling and erosion. For these reasons, a certaing amount of boiler water must be discharged continuously or periodically to ensure TDS concentration is kept within the recommended parameters. 

The ADCATrol VPC26 is a control valve specially designed for this purpose and features a multi-stage trim to progressively reduce the energy of the fluid. This makes it ideal for discharge of boiler blowdown at high differential pressures where flashing is a concern. 

The valve is suitable for both continuous and on/off TDS control via a PA series reverse action pneumatic actuator or AV saeries fail-safe spring return actuator. 

The datsheet of the ADCA RP45 series pressure reducing valves has been thoroughly revised and updated with new relevant information. 

Please consult the updated datasheet for further details.

Please consult the updated datasheet for further details.

The equipment combines the features of a float steam trap and a pressure operated pump, in one single unit. Whenever the steam trap function is incapable of draining condensate, the pump function is activated (using external steam pressure). 

The pump replaces the necessary positive pressure to lift the condensate to the return system, before water logging occurs, avoiding water hammer and consequent noise, equipment damage, corrosion, unstable temperature control, etc.

MAIN FEATURES

• Compact design
• No electric requirements
• No NPSH issues
• Operation under vacuum conditions
• No motive or flash steam is lost
• Low filling head for minimal installation space requirements
