Dump Condenser

Listing ID #3185377

Dump Condensers are used to recover large amounts of steam that may otherwise be vented to the atmosphere. During fluctuating steam loads, turbine trip off, turbine start-up,or bypass, the excess steam that would ordinarily be vented can be diverted to a dump condenser. Dump Condensers may also be used for process plants when upset demand conditions occur.
A dump condenser is required when the steam consumption needs to be drastically reduced in a very short period of time and when the boiler cannot follow this variation.
Features :

• Water-cooled Dump Condensers
• Fabrication and design typically to Heat Exchange Institute
• Standard (HEI), ASME Code, and can include TEMA, Seismic
• Codes, and other specifications.

Designs to eliminate excessive vibrations and water hammer Standard materials are carbon steel with stainless steel tubes. Special materials are available for severe duty or other applications.
Dump Condenser can be furnished as a system which may consist of Steam Pressure/Temperature Reducing Station and Condensate Recovery System which includes Level Controls, Condensate Pumps, and Electrical Control Panel for automatic
operation.
