Pressurised Thermophysical deaerator with operator manual for the control unit
3.3 Process connections and draining
Each unit is provided with drawings indicating the location and specifications of the connections to be made
according with the configuration and options ordered.
Therefore, refer to the dimensional drawing for the specific unit.
In general, Spirax Sarco integrated systems are installed following this simple procedure:
-
Note:
Before making any connection make sure that all pipes are clean and free from foreign bodies or
waste matter. This is usually done by blowing out the pipes with compressed air. Any foreign body or
waste matter may impair the functionality or performance of the unit.
-
Note:
For all pipe connections, the use and/or type of sealant or gaskets at the coupling points must
be chosen according to local rules, accepted by common practice, or according to the installer's
specifications.
-
Note:
Manual isolation valves and non-return valves must meet the specifications and requirements
of local regulations.
-
Steam is a fluid that can be very dangerous due to high temperature and high pressure. Use common
sense and follow all recommended procedures when performing installation, commissioning and
maintenance to avoid possible accidents.
-
Make sure that a manual isolation valve is installed upstream of the steam line (power source), and
that it functions properly. If there is any doubt about the integrity of the isolation valve, replace it before
starting the installation.
3.3.1 Primary industrial steam line connection.
Connect the inlet of the unit's primary steam line to the plant's technological steam distribution network.
The manual isolation valve provided on the line must be closed and must remain closed during installation.
The exact position of the primary steam inlet connection, as well as the pipe diameter and the size of the
connection flange, can be found in the drawings provided with the unit.
3.3.2 Condensate return line connection.
Connect the plant’s condensate return line to the condensate inlet provided in the pkg unit.
The exact position of the primary steam inlet connection, as well as the pipe diameter and the size of the
connection flange, can be found in the drawings provided with the unit.
3.3.3 Make-up water connection.
Connect the unit's make-up water line inlet to the plant’s line.
The manual isolation valve provided on the line must be closed and must remain closed during installation.
The exact position of the make-up water inlet connection, as well as the pipe diameter and the size of the
connection flange, can be found in the drawings provided with the unit.
