Description
FLASH VESSELS
Series ‘FT’ Flash Tanks
PURPOSE
All steam systems produce flash steam which is usually wasted when it escapes through the condensate receiver vent pipe. Boiler blowdown also produces significant amounts of flash steam. The cost of a Flash Steam Recovery System is usually paid back very quickly – almost always in less than one year
NOTES
● Finished with one coat of maroon primer
● Higher pressure ratings are available upon request
● Dimension can be modified to suit specific requirements
