System Description
The flash vessels VD 23 and VD 26 in conjunction with
GESTRA float traps type UNA 23 or UNA 26 form a compact
system. The flash vessel VD 23 is equipped with the float
trap UNA 23. The flash vessel VD 26 is equipped with the
float trap UNA 26. Both flash vessels consist of a vessel with
a condensate inlet, an outlet for the flash steam and a float
trap type UNA. Both versions are available as vertical and
horizontal design. Flash vessels are used to separate flash
steam from condensate. The flash vessels VD... are sized in
accordance with the operating data.
Function
Condensate flows through the condensate inlet into the
condensate tank of the flash vessel. Wire drawing effects
ocurring in the flash vessel are considerably reduced by a
deflector plate. The design of the lower part of the flash vessel
ensures that the condensate is free of steam bubbles when it enters the float trap.
