Flash
Steam Heat Recovery Unit
The EnviroSep Model FSHR-F, Flash Steam Heat Recovery Unit is a manufactured
unit featuring a recovery module facilitating flash steam heat extraction
from boiler blowdown. The FSHR-F is ideally suited for heating continuous
flow of fluid, such as make-up water to boiler feedwater system. The
atmospherically vented unit helps recovery and utilize valuable heat
generally lost during boiler blowdown. A Shell and Tube Recovery Module
with U-tube configuration is used for recovering energy from the flash
steam; Plate and Frame Module is optional.
The Model FSHR-F is a complete
unit including a Carbon Steel Flash Vessel. Non-continuous flow applications
may require additional recirculation and/or relief valving. An optional
make-up water control valve may be installed upstream of the unit
in order for the make-up to be allowed to thermally expand to atmosphere
to prevent system damage. Each Unit is custom engineered and designed
to meet specific system requirements. All systems are fabricated and
welded per ASME Section IX Code and Standards, and are Hydrostatically
tested prior to shipment.
