Piping
STEAM FROM A PRESSURIZED STEAM
Ultra-sorb panels for pressurized steam have a threaded pipe nipple that
extends outside the framework for a steam supply connection. The steam
supply line should be dripped immediately ahead of the steam valve through a
steam trap. See Figure 14-3.
RECOMMENDED TRAP FOR STEAM MAIN DRIP LEG
Use a fl oat and thermostatic (F&T) trap on the steam supply ≤15 psi and
inverted bucket if > 15 psi.
DRIEST STEAM
To ensure driest steam, take humidifi er steam off the top of the steam main (not
the side or bottom).
