8. Piping
Size
If the secondary steam flow velocity is expected to be more than 30 m/s (100 ft/s),
install a diffuser in order to keep the flow velocity below 30 m/s (100 ft/s).
If the distance between the
PN-COSR-16
and the steam-using equipment is great,
a possible drop in pressure should be taken into consideration when selecting the
piping size.
In addition, when installing the strainer, the strainer screen should be either at the
3 o’clock or 9 o’clock position to prevent condensate accumulation.

Diffuser
Straight-run piping lengths (d = pipe diameter):
Upstream = 10 d or more; Downstream = 15 d ore more

9. Two-stage Pressure Reduction
Whenever the pressure cannot be reduced to the desired level with a single
PN-
COSR-16
due to operating range limitations, such as when the reduction ratio is
greater than 10:1, the pressure reducing valve should be installed at the primary
side.
