Reboiler drain valve

2012-04-17View Original

Thread Content

The water delivery performance of the drain valve located after the reboiler in our plant’s water separation tower is poor. Is this related to the selection of the strainer? Which type of desiccant dryer is better? Now we all discharge directly on-site, which is very wasteful.

Try turning the bypass around once? . . . . . . Give it a try

We are using a floating ball type drain valve, and it works fine.

We are also using a float-type hydrophoger, and it operates without any problems

Let’s use floating balls instead; they offer good hydrophobic effects. We produce hydrophobic valves for Korea, which are of high quality at competitive prices. Feel free to contact me if you need them, hehe

In my opinion, steam traps are generally not very reliable. It’s better to use a valve directly.

Our float-type ones are still okay! Excellent water delivery performance! It’s also excellent value for money!

We pump it out using a condensate pump; operations are going well! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

The steam traps in our factory do not perform well in terms of water drainage; sometimes there are also water hammer issues in the pipelines. In such cases, it’s sufficient to open the bypass valve slightly and then close it after an hour. If that doesn’t work, keep the valve at a slightly open position

I recommend using orifice plate traps, as these types of traps do not need to be replaced for 20 years and operate smoothly. For communication, please add QQ847729602.

Reply to the original poster: It is recommended to use mechanical types such as bucket-type, free-floating ball type, and lever-floating ball type; pay attention to pressure differences and water volume issues. Reply to Floor 9: Your drain valve has a low drainage capacity at the given pressure difference. It is recommended to select a different model. qq1589178589
