Thesteamsupplypipingtothejacketsfromsteamsupplymanifold
Theindividualsteamjacketcircuits
Thecondensateoutletpipingtocondensateheader,steamtrap&trap

2.2TypesofJacketing

a.ContinuousJacketing_

Allstraightlengths,flanges,fittings,valvesandbranchconnectionsarefullyjacketed.

b.DiscontinuousJacketing_
Onlystraightlengthofpipesarejacketed.Flanges,tees,elbows,branchconnectionsandweldsarenotjacketed.
