• Do not use excessive force when connecting threaded pipes to the product. Over-tightening may cause breakage leading to fluid discharge, which may cause burns or other injury.
• In case of unexpected steam flow, connect piping from the exhaust outlet to a safe area. Unexpectedly high steam volumes may cause high-temperature condensate to be discharged through the exhaust outlet, which may in turn cause burns or other injury.
• Operate valves slowly and carefully. Opening or closing valves too quickly may cause water hammer to occur, the impact of which could cause damage to equipment.
• Use only under conditions in which no freeze-up will occur. Freezing may damage the product, leading to fluid discharge, which may cause burns or other injury. If the water seal or inside of the tube freeze, the inside of the product may be pressurized which could cause problems on equipment or devices that are connected to the product.

Intended Use
This product is an atmospheric indirect heat exchanger for recovering heat energy from waste or flash steam for applications where the steam cannot otherwise be utilized. By using this product for waste heat recovery or steam condensation, system energy efficiency, work environment, and plant scenery can be improved without increasing back pressure on steam-using equipment.

Usages

• Flash steam from applications such as steamers, sterilizers and vulcanizers where the steam cannot otherwise be utilized and released to the atmosphere
• Flash steam escaping from hot water/processing tanks
• Flash steam escaping from condensate tanks into the atmosphere

Note
Limited to applications in which steam incorporates no air or non-condensable gases.

Improvement effect

Before improvement

After improvement

• Lower system steam usage by collecting unusable 100 °C (212 °F) steam and employing it in processes such as water heating which previously used main line steam
• Improves work environment and plant scenery by eliminating clouds of steam generated around the plant
• Because waste steam processing can be carried out indoors, it is not necessary to construct outdoor duct piping; further reducing costs

System Principle
Because the product does not have any valve parts on the Waste Steam Recovery side, it does not create any back-pressure on upstream equipment. For this reason, it can be directly connected to and used with feed water tanks and other vessels that do not meet pressure vessel regulations in most locations. Consult TLV for details.
Concerning the construction of the unit, there is a condensate outlet in the base of the heat exchanger. This allows a water seal to be maintained which directly prevents steam leakage. Thus, with a similar construction to closed type heat exchangers, it can ensure an equivalent level of high efficiency heat exchange.

Operation Flow

1. Waste steam flows into the SR from equipment connected to the steam inlet.

2. Waste steam which has flowed into the SR (shell side) transfers heat to cold water inside the heat transfer coil.

3. Upon transferring heat the waste steam condenses and drips down to collect in the base of the SR.
   Furthermore, since condensing steam inside an airtight space produces a fall in pressure, the inside of the SR is maintained at atmospheric pressure or a very slight vacuum (0.5 kPaG (0.07 psig)) which ensures a smooth influx of waste steam.

4. Condensate accumulated in the base of the tank seals the outlet, and it becomes similar in structure to a pseudo closed type heat exchanger.

5. Furthermore, after waste steam transfers heat away and becomes condensate, it overflows and is discharged to the outside.

6. If the cold water flow rate decreases, or else the ability of the cold water to absorb heat is surpassed causing an influx of waste steam; even if waste steam accumulates inside the SR and the pressure begins to rise; the instant that the pressure rises above 0.5 kPaG (0.07 psig) (a water seal with 50 mm (2 in) of head pressure) the water seal will be broken and waste steam will be discharged to the atmosphere through the exhaust outlet.(Pressure will not accumulate inside the unit.)

Installation Example for Piping to/from the Product

Please carefully refer to the “Piping Installation” section described on the following pages for important points regarding piping arrangements.

Note
Depending on the specifications, the product may or may not feature an overflow outlet for the exhaust pipe.

Piping Installation 1: Waste Steam Inlet Piping

Other cautions
The piping diameter should be sized so that the flow velocity of steam is approximately 20 m/sec (66 ft/sec). To handle steam without applying back pressure on steam-using equipment, it is recommended that the piping be of the same diameter as the SR steam inlet (SR-3: 80 mm (3 in), SR-8: 150 mm (6 in)).

Suggested diameters for the steam inlet piping are as follows:

Steam Flow kg/h (lb/h)| 50
(110)| 100
(220)| 150
(330)| 200
(440)| 300
(660)| 400
(880)| 500
(1100)| 600
(1320)| 800
(1760)
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---
Pipe Diameter mm (in)| 40 (11/2)| 50
(2)| 50
(2)| 80
(3)| 80
(3)| 100
(4)| 100
(4)| 125
(5)| 150
(6)

Piping Installation 2: Condensate Outlet Piping, Blowdown Piping and Overflow Piping for Exhaust Pipe

Other cautions
When back pressure is applied to the SR, it also affects the upstream equipment from which waste steam is recovered. Even though piping with the same diameter as the condensate outlet piping of the SR is recommended to prevent back pressure from being applied to the SR, it is possible to use a smaller pipe diameter depending on the length of the pipe to the pit or discharge destination.

Suggested diameters for the condensate outlet piping are as follows:
When the condensate outlet valve or the overflow piping for exhaust pipe is installed, make sure to use either a full-bore ball valve or a gate valve so that back pressure does not interfere with the operation of the SR.

Pipe Length to Pit or Recovery Destination| Less than 10 m (33 ft)| 10 m to 50 m (33 ft to 164 ft)| Greater than 50 m (164 ft)
---|---|---|---
Output Pipe Diameter| 25 mm (1 in)| 40 mm (11/2 in)| 50 mm (2 in)

Note
Depending on the specifications, the product may or may not feature an overflow outlet for exhaust pipe. Products without an overflow outlet should be fitted with an overflow line of nominal diameter 10 mm (3/8 in) or more.

Piping Installation 3: Exhaust Piping

Other cautions
Be certain to connect exhaust piping to protect against instances of unexpectedly high-volume waste steam flow into the SR, which may cause waste steam/hot water to be discharged. When back pressure is applied to the SR, it also affects the upstream equipment from which waste steam is recovered. To prevent putting back-pressure on upstream equipment, make exhaust piping as large in diameter, short, and with as few bends as possible. Even though piping with the same diameter as the exhaust piping of the SR is recommended to prevent putting back pressure on the SR, it is possible to use a smaller pipe diameter depending on the length of the pipe to the pit or recovery destination.

Suggested diameters for the exhaust piping are as follows:

Connecting the duct piping to the exhaust outlet
The standard connection specification of the exhaust outlet for the product is “duct piping installable”. Nipple fittings should be used to connect the product and the piping, making sure that there is no leakage.

Piping example

1. All duct piping should withstand high temperatures of 100 °C (212 °F). Coat the nipple with duct sealant.
2. Insert the nipple into the product, then the duct piping into the nipple. After everything is set in place, fix with screws (screw holes on the product: M5 × 2 locations).
3. After fixing with screws, wrap with two or three layers of tape that can withstand the required heat.

About exhaust outlet/options
The exhaust outlet of the product can be produced with a flange connection as an option. However, specification changes after delivery cannot be accepted. The exhaust piping should be supported firmly, making sure to avoid excessive force on the product. (Excessive force may lead to damage to the product.)

In cases where the piping is welded directly to the exhaust outlet
C3 chamfering has been performed on the exhaust outlet. When welding is performed on the exhaust outlet, the connecting tube should be also chamfered and butt welded. Furthermore, when SUS304 is used for the product, the piping thickness of the exhaust outlet will be “Sch40”.

Screw holes on the exhaust port
Two M5-sized screw holes are opened on either side of the exhaust port, intended for use with the standard duct connection.
Piping Installation 4: Water Inlet and Outlet Piping

Other cautions
Connect the cold water piping to the cold water inlet, and connect return piping from the hot water outlet to an area where the hot water can be utilized. To secure an adequate amount of cold feed water, make sure that the hydraulic pressure differential (pressure differential between inlet and outlet) is at least equal to the values in the following table. However, the water pressure must not exceed the maximum operating water pressure of 1.0 MPaG (150 psig).

Required Cold Water (t/h (lb/h))| Hydraulic Pressure Differential (MPa (psig))
---|---
SR-3| SR-8
1| (2000)| 0.03| (4.4)| ―| ―
2| (4000)| 0.11| (15.9)| ―| ―
3| (6000)| 0.23| (33.4)| 0.03| (4.4)
4| (8000)| 0.40| (58.0)| 0.05| (7.3)
5| (10000)| 0.62| (89.9)| 0.07| (10.2)
6| (12000)| ―| ―| 0.10| (14.5)
8| (16000)| ―| ―| 0.17| (24.7)
10| (20000)| ―| ―| 0.27| (39.2)
12| (24000)| ―| ―| 0.38| (55.1)
14| (28000)| ―| ―| 0.60| (87.0)

The diameter of the pipe before and after the product varies with the required amount of cold water, and it should be sized so that the velocity of cold water is 2 to 3 m/sec (6.6 to 9.8 ft/sec).

Suggested diameters for the cold water inlet and hot water outlet piping are as follows:

Operation

Caution
Install properly and DO NOT use this product outside the recommended operating pressure, temperature and other specification ranges. Improper use may result in such hazards as damage to the product or malfunctions that may lead to serious accidents. Local regulations may restrict the use of this product to below the conditions quoted.
Take measures to prevent people from coming into direct contact with product outlets. Failure to do so may result in burns or other injury from the discharge of fluids.
Operate valves slowly and carefully. Opening or closing valves too quickly may cause water hammer to occur, the impact of which could cause damage to equipment.

To be performed after installation and before initial operation

• Make sure to flush the piping to remove welding slag, metal powder and filings.
• Make sure that flange bolts etc. are securely tightened before passing steam/water through the product.
• When conducting the test operation, start with a low steam and water flow rate and gradually increase the load to normal operating conditions. If you start with a normal operating load at the outset and there is a leak somewhere in the piping, there is a risk of steam or water blowing out.

Startup

Make sure that the cold water inlet valve A and hot water outlet valve B are open before supplying waste steam to the SR. If waste steam is supplied while the cold water inlet valve A and hot water outlet valve B are closed, the pressure inside the coil will increase due to volume expansion, which could damage the cold water inlet valve A and hot water outlet valve B.

1. Make sure that the blow valve C in the base of the SR is closed.
2. Open the cold water inlet valve A and the hot water outlet valve B, allowing water to pass through the SR. In cases where either TIC (temperature control of heated water) or FIC (flow control of heated water) is used, start up the controls.
3. Open the condensate outlet valve, if any.
4. Open the steam inlet valve, if any.
5. Startup the equipment to allow waste steam to enter the SR.

Make sure that there are no abnormal discharges from the exhaust outlet or overflow outlet for exhaust pipe*, such as blowing steam or condensate. If there is condensate blowing, or an abnormal sound or vibration, halt operation immediately. The first time you operate the SR, or when operating with the condensate blow valve C open, waste steam may be discharged to the atmosphere through the exhaust outlet or overflow outlet for exhaust pipe 1 immediately after initiating operation, due to the lack of pooled condensate in the base to create an airtight water seal over the condensate outlet. (If steam blow stops shortly then everything is normal.)
Shutdown

1. Stop the equipment, making sure that there is no flow of waste steam.
2. Close the cold water inlet valve A and the hot water outlet valve B to stop the inflow of cold water. At this point, make sure to close the valve slowly not rapidly. (If the valve is closed rapidly, water hammer will occur, resulting in impacts to the SR and the surrounding piping.)
3. When the SR is to be shutdown for long periods of time, discharge all condensate by opening the blow valve C at the bottom of the body.

Depending on the specifications, the product may or may not feature an overflow outlet for the exhaust pipe.

Inspection and Maintenance

Caution
Take measures to prevent people from coming into direct contact with product outlets. Failure to do so may result in burns or other injury from the discharge of fluids.
Be sure to use only the recommended components when repairing the product, and NEVER attempt to modify the product in any way. Failure to observe these precautions may result in damage to the product and burns or other injury due to malfunction or the discharge of fluids. As the SR is an atmospheric type heat exchanger, there is no particular need to perform the kind of maintenance inspections required for pressure vessels. However, if the heat exchanging performance declines, verify that the cold water and steam flow quantity are in compliance with the rated capacities. If they are not in compliance, correct the flow quantities. If there are no irregularities with the flow quantities, perform the following inspection: Annual inspection and cleaning is recommended to prolong the product’s service life.

Inspection at cold/hot water side
Perform a reverse-flow chemical cleaning by pouring cleaning solution in through the hot water outlet valve on the SR, then discharging the solution through the cold water inlet valve.

Inspection at steam side
Remove the plug from the inspection opening and check the condition inside the tank. If the inspection reveals heavy grime, close the condensate outlet and the condensate blowdown outlet and perform chemical cleaning by pouring cleaning solution through the exhaust outlet of the SR.
