Steam Surface Condensers

A Surface Condenser creates the lowest possible vacuum or process operating back pressure while condensing steam. The condensate generated is usually recirculated back into the boiler and reused. Both these functions are accomplished at the best efficiency consistent with the ever-present problem of economy.

The bare condenser consists of the following parts :

Exhaust connections for turbine, condenser shell, shell expansion joints, dome area, air off takes, hotwell, support saddles, waterbox, pass partitions, water outlet connection, impingement protection, tube support plate, tubes, shell flange, relief valve connection, condensate outlets, tubesheets, water cover & flanges, water inlet connection and  handlehole. 

  Materials of construction
Shell & Channel : carbon steel - IS2062, SA516 Gr. 70  Tubes : Admiralty brass, stainless steel ( SS304/SS316), carbon steel
  Design / mfg. code
HEI - Ninth Edition ( 1995 ), ASME Sec,. VIII Div. 1 - 2004 and TEMA -C:1999
  Capacity
The condensers currently manufactured are in the range of 5 TPH to 120 TPH
  Capabilities
The maximum capacity handled is 
  • 119.042 TPH of steam flow
  • 3.4 Metres diameter

We also design, engineer, manufacture, procure & package the complete condensing system which comprises of the following in addition to the bare condenser, based on the options selected for:

Level switch / transmitter, re-circulation control valve, temperature gauges, condensate extraction pumps, level indicating controller, expansion bellow, steam silencer, associated piping, main control valve, pressure gauges, flow indicator / transmitter, ejectors / vacuum pumps, steam strainers, rupture disc, valves & fittings.
