How to size
Use the chart below to select the appropriate flash vessel. It is necessary to know the pressure on the steam traps or boiler pressure in
the case of blowdown heat recovery, the flash steam pressure (desired or existing), and the condensate or blowdown flowrate.
Example 1: (solid lines)
A boiler plant operating at 12 bar g has a TDS control blowdown flowrate of 2 500 kg /h (3 boilers at 833 kg / h each).
The flash steam from the blowdown is to be added to the low pressure steam system operating at 1 bar g.

Installation
The vessel should be mounted with the flash steam outlet at the
top, and connected as indicated below. Each vessel incorporates
a " screwed boss for a pressure gauge. For drainage, it is
recommended that a float trap is fitted. A safety valve connection
is provided on the vessel. It should not be assumed that the safety
valve will be the same size as the connection. Safety valve
sizing and selection should be in accordance with National and
Local Regulations.
