Flash Condensing Deaerator Heads
A simple low cost solution for deaerating boiler feedwater at atmospheric pressure

Mixes hot and cold incoming flows


2.1.1 Liberates oxygen and other gases
Stainless steel for long maintenance free life
Easy to install
Description
Spirax Sarco flash condensing deaerator head is designed to mix
incoming flows of cold make-up, condensate return and flash
steam to the boiler feedtank. This mixing action is achieved by
directing the downward flow through a baffle arrangement within
the unit. This liberates dissolved gases from the cold make-up,
which are vented to atmosphere. The cold make-up inlet is fitted
with a spray screen which diffuses the flow, increasing its surface
area to promote thorough mixing with the condensate and
flash steam.
A Spirax Sarco flash condensing deaerator head consists of three 1
parts:
- A mixing unit, which is bolted to the top of the tank and is
supplied with connections to customer specification for cold 3
make-up, condensate return, flash steam from blowdown etc.
- An immersion tube, which distributes the mixed fluids into the 2
tank and has an integral plate flange which is sandwiched
between the tank and mixing unit flanges.
Immersion tubes are fully described in separate literature. 3
- Gaskets. Two gaskets are required, one fitted each side on
the immersion tube flange. They are ordered separately.

Available types
The mixing unit is available in five nominal diameters (DN150,
DN200, DN250, DN300 and DN400) flanged to BS 4504 PN16 or
BS 1560 Class 150.
Immersion tubes are available in diameters to suit the deaerator
heads and lengths of 950, 1200, 1600 and 2100 mm to suit TM
metric feedtanks. Since each deaerator head is built to suit specific
plant requirements we recommend that your local Spirax Sarco
Engineer is contacted for a connection layout sheet and to discuss
your requirements.

Recirculating Feedwater Spray Systems
Increases flash steam condensing capability
Improves thermal efficiency of the feedtank
2.1.3 Improves deaeration within the feedtank
Energy saving three speed pump
Description 4
The Spirax Sarco RFS1 and RFS2 recirculating feedwater spray
systems are designed to provide additional flash steam condensing
capacity on boiler feedtank applications. When the condensate return
flowrate is high and the cold make-up flowrate is intermittent it is
likely that valuable flash steam will be lost through the vent. To
ensure that this flash steam is condensed it is often worthwhile to
take feedwater from a relatively cool part of the feedtank and pump it
to a spray nozzle. Approximately 20% of the feedtank content can
be circulated per hour to provide this additional flash condensing
capacity. By using a low energy pump the thermal efficiency of the
feedtank can be improved.
Application
The RFS1 and RFS2 systems are specifically designed for use with
Spirax Sarco flash condensing deaerator heads. The mixing unit of
each head is fitted with a connection for the spray nozzle.

Immersion Tubes
Description
Spirax Sarco immersion tubes may be:
- Connected directly to the pipeline, to distribute condensate into
feedtanks.
- Used with a mixing unit to form a ash condensing de-aerator 2

2.1.5 head (not applicable to the IT100 unit).


Note: A ash condensing de-aerator head can be used to mix
ash steam (from a TDS control system), cold make-up water,
and condensate, and sparge it into a feedtank. It is described in 1
separate literature.
Immersion tubes offer a much neater solution than traditional
sparge pipes, and can reduce many of the problems associated
with them, for example vibration, rusting, and waterhammer. 2
Immersion tubes are suitable for both new and retrot applications
where the feedtank is adequately constructed and braced.

Available types
Available as types IT100_, IT150_, IT200_, IT250_, IT300_, and
IT400_ with an integral inside bolt circle sandwich ange to suit
ANSI 150 or EN 1092 PN16. They are available in lengths to suit
TM metric feedtanks. Other lengths can be made to special order.
Immersion tubes are designated by IT followed by DN followed
by length of immersion tube in mm. e.g. IT250-1600 is DN250 and
is 1 600 mm long from the underside of the ange. It is suitable for
a 2 000 mm deep tank.

* For other quantities of ash steam the capacity may be determined


pro rata i.e. for 10% ash capacity is half that shown.

As a general rule the size of an immersion tube should be at least


one DN larger than the condensate return main.

Important note:
The above table is only valid for condensate, where the ash steam
content has to be considered.
When sizing an immersion tube for use with a de-aerator head,
use the guidelines in the ash condensing de-aerator head TI.
The DH / IT has a higher overall capacity as it is able to condense
the flash steam content of the fluid before it enters the tank. We
do not make a mixing unit to suit the IT100.

correct valve.

Boiler feedtank applications


Oxygen must be removed from boiler water if corrosion is to be
prevented. Oxygen can be removed in two ways, either by the use
of oxygen scavenging chemicals or by thermal deaeration.
The dissolved oxygen content of water:
- At 20C is 9 ppm
- At 60C is 5 ppm
- At 90C is just under 2 ppm.
By heating the boiler feedwater typically to 85 - 90C to remove most
of the oxygen, and using oxygen scavenging chemicals, the use of
chemicals can be reduced by up to 75%. Additionally, boiler efficiency
may be increased since blowdown requirements may be lowered.
The fitting of a dial thermometer on the tank is recommended and is
available from Spirax Sarco.

Safety and installation information
Flanged Steam distributors operate at temperatures which could cause
SD150 DN150 PN16 or Class 150 305 220 severe scalding, and produce strong currents of very hot
steam / water. Do not touch or lean over open tanks which are being
heated, even if the water still appears to be cold. Ensure closed
tanks are adequately vented and that the vent is unobstructed.
Steam supply pipework must be firmly anchored to prevent vibration
and stress in the tank wall. Tanks must be adequately constructed
and braced / stayed as necessary to avoid vibration. Consult your
local Spirax Sarco engineer if in any doubt.
Installation note:
Fit the end of a vertical downpipe in the tank so that the bottom of
the distributor is at about 1/3 off the working depth of tank. The piping
L between the steam source and distributor should be the same
nominal size as the connection on the distributor. It is recommended
that the piping is less than 10 m in length in order to minimise the
pressure drop.
Disposal:
This product is recyclable. No ecological hazard is anticipated
with the disposal of this product, providing due care is taken.

Tank Level Control (On /Off)


Description
Warning: This document does not contain sufficient information to install the system safely. See the Installation and Maintenance
Instructions supplied with the products for full details.
The Spirax Sarco (on /off) tank level control system is suitable for most qualities of industrial waters down to a nominal 1 S/cm or 1 ppm at
25C minimum. The controllers must be mounted in an enclosure or panel to provide environmental protection. They may be mounted on a

2.3.1 'top-hat' DIN rail using the mounting clip provided or the controller base may be screwed directly to a chassis plate.

Applications
On /off tank level control can be achieved using the
LC1350
Spirax Sarco LC1350 controller in conjunction with
LP10-4 level probes. The LC1350 controller is able to
provide the following functions:-
LC1350 controller a) Pump-in control with low or high alarm or
AL
b) Pump-out control with low or high alarm or
OK c) High or low alarm plus extra low alarm.

Typical arrangements
We recommend the probe is in a protection tube. The
metal tank generally forms the earth return. However,
where the tank is of a non-conductive material one of
the probe electrodes should be used to provide the
LP10-4 probe earth return.

Tank Level Control


(On /Off or Modulating)
using Capacitance Probes
Description
The system comprises a Spirax Sarco LP20 level probe and PA20 preamplifier together with either an LC2250 controller, and associated
valves and fittings, depending on the application.
Separate literature is available which explains the individual equipment in detail.

2.3.3 Applications
Spirax Sarco capacitance probe based systems can be used to monitor and control the level of a wide range of conductive liquids.
The controllers may be used in a variety of configurations for many different filling or emptying applications.
For modulating level control, Spirax Sarco supply a control valve with an electric actuator and 1000 ohm feedback potentiometer.
The LC2250 level controller should be mounted in a metal or plastic enclosure to provide environmental protection. Spirax Sarco are able
to supply suitable enclosures.
Controllers may be mounted on a 'top hat' DIN rail using the mounting clip provided or the controller base may be screwed directly to a
chassis plate.
If the tank or vessel contents are turbulent the probe should be mounted in a protection tube.

Typical arrangements
The system provides the following options:-

Modulating fill control with high alarm


Modulating fill control with low alarm
Using the LC2250 controller
Modulating empty control with high alarm
Modulating empty control with low alarm
On/off fill control with high alarm
On/off fill control with low alarm
Using the LC2250 controller On/off empty control with high alarm
(with pump contactor)
On/off empty control with low alarm
(with pump contactor)

Daily test (or once per shift)


1. With the burner firing, operate the sequencing purge valve on the 1st low alarm chamber to purge through the water connection to the
chamber and to empty the chamber to drain. Check that the burner shuts down and that the 1st low alarm lamp and bell operates.

2. Return the sequencing purge valve to 'normal'. The alarm should cancel and the burner refire.

3. With the burner firing repeat the test on the 2nd low alarm chamber. The alarm should 'lockout' and should require manual resetting
before the burner will refire.

4. On completion of the test, check that all valves and controls are in their normal operating position and that the water level is correct in
the level gauge glass. The boiler should not be left until the person carrying out the test is satisfied it is operating normally.

Weekly test
The weekly test should be carried out or witnessed by a responsible person who appreciates the hazards involved and has been suitably
trained in the safe operation of the boiler and its controls. At no time during the test should the water be lowered to the extent that it
disappears from the gauge glass.

1. With the feedpump switched off, allow the water level to fall by evaporation until the burner shuts down at 1st low alarm.

2. Blow down the boiler until the 2nd low alarm sounds and the burner controls go to lockout. 2.3.6
3. Raise the water level to normal, reset the lockout, then continue to raise the water level to the high alarm level. Check that the high
alarm sounds.

4. Return all valves and controls to normal and monitor the boiler until satisfied that it is operating normally.

Quarterly inspection
The Health and Safety Executive recommend from experience that the boiler controls should be serviced at least at quarterly intervals.
Where the regular tests are carried out properly in a well run boiler house with good water treatment, it may be that only an annual inspection
of the probes etc. is required. This is a matter, however, for the user to decide in liaison with his insurance company inspector in order to
determine a sensible inspection programme to suit the individual boiler plant. We recommend a regular inspection as follows:

1. Inspect the probe plugs for moisture.

2. Unscrew the probes and wipe away any dirt from the probe tips. If any hard scale is present it may be an indication of more serious
scale formation elsewhere in the boiler. Investigate water treatment.

3. Remove the covers from the sequencing purge valves and inspect the water connections to the boiler. Clean as necessary.

4. Inspect the wiring and controllers for damage.

5. Reassemble, refill the boiler and carry out a full functional check.

inspection programme to suit the individual boiler plant.
We recommend a regular inspection as follows:
1. Inspect the probe plugs for moisture.
2. Unscrew the probes and wipe away any dirt from the probe
tips. If any hard scale is present it may be an indication of
more serious scale formation elsewhere in the boiler.
Investigate water treatment.
3. Inspect the wiring and controllers for damage.
4. Reassemble and carry out a full functional check.

LP10-4
Level Probe
Description
The Spirax Sarco LP10-4 level probe is used with the Spirax Sarco
LC1350 level controller to provide on / off level control and alarm 5
functions in steam boilers, tanks or other vessels.
The four tip probe is particularly suitable where 3-lamp 'electric gauge

2.3.15 glass' alarm / level indicators are fitted. The probe body is earthed
through its screwed connection and the boiler or tank normally
forms the earth return path. The probe may also be
used in concrete or plastic tanks by using one of the tips as an
earth return, or by providing a separate earth rod or plate. The
LP10-4 probe has four detachable level sensing tips which 6
are cut to length on installation to give the required switching levels.
Note: Tips are ordered separately. When a tip is immersed in
conductive liquid it completes an electrical circuit to earth.
When the level drops below the tip, the resistance to earth
becomes high, indicating to the controller that the tip is out
of the liquid.
Approvals: 1 7
The LP10-4 is also available with a 1" NPT screwed connection,
approved to UL61010. Please note that this version will not be 4
marked and is not suitable for Europe.
Caution:
The probe is not suitable for outside installation without
additional environmental protection.

LP30
High Integrity, Self-monitoring
Low Level Alarm Probe
Description
The Spirax Sarco LP30 level probe is used with a Spirax Sarco 4
LC3050 level controller to provide a high integrity, self-monitoring low
level alarm signal, usually in a steam boiler. It consists of a
probe body with a removable cable socket, and a separate Pg 11
screw-on probe tip which is retained by a lock-nut and pin.
2.3.21 The probe has a level sensing tip (probe tip), and a comparator tip.
The earth return path is via the body connection.
5 Cable gland

Under normal operating conditions the probe tip is partially immersed,


and the resistance to earth is low. When the water level drops below
the probe tip the resistance to earth becomes high, causing the 2
controller to give a low level alarm signal.
The comparator tip compensates for any leakage to earth caused by
scale, dirt, or internal moisture, ensuring a low water alarm signal
even under adverse conditions. 3
Principal features:
- High integrity, self-monitoring low level alarm probe.
- Suitable for pressures up to 32 bar g at 239C.
- No maintenance required.
- Positively retained probe tip.
Approvals:
The LP30 is also available with a " NPT screwed connection,
approved to UL61010. Please note that this version will not be 1

LP31
High Integrity, Self-monitoring
High Water Level Alarm Probe
Description
The Spirax Sarco LP31 is used in conjunction with an LC3050
controller to provide a high integrity, self-monitoring alarm for Cable socket
detection of high water levels in steam boilers and other vessels. 1
The probe is normally installed direct in the boiler shell in a
2.3.23 protection tube, but can be mounted in an external chamber if
regulations permit.

3
Pg 11
Cable gland

The LP31 is supplied in three nominal tip lengths, and is cut to the
exact length required prior to installation.
In normal operation, the tip is above the water level, and has a high
resistance path to earth. If the water level rises to touch the probe
4
tip, the resistance to earth drops, causing the alarm relays in the
controller to be de-energised and the alarm to sound.
The LP31 is designed so that its tip and wiring connection integrity
is monitored by the controller, causing an alarm signal in the event
of a fault occurring.
The LP31 can also be used as a simple (non self-monitoring) high 5
or low level probe with an LC1350 level controller.
A DIN 43650 cable socket with Pg 11 cable gland is supplied with
the unit.
Approvals:
The LP31 is also available with a " NPT screwed connection,

APS1
Probe Simulator
Description
The APS1 probe simulator is used in place of a level or conductivity probe to verify the correct operation of Spirax Sarco controllers. It can also
be used to diagnose wiring / probe faults. It is connected to the level probe or conductivity probe wiring, avoiding the need to fire the boiler or
alter water levels, and is quick and easy to use.
The APS1 has switch settings covering all Spirax Sarco probe types and ranges.
2.3.25 A potentiometer provides the variable input to a capacitance controller, and 4 mm test sockets are provided for connection of a multimeter, which
is used to check the voltage when simulating capacitance probes.
Switches simulate wet or dry (high or low resistance) conductivity level probe conditions, and resistors are built in to represent various conductivity
probe ranges.
The APS1 is powered by the controller under test, so needs no batteries or external power supply.
The unit is fitted with two inputs, connected in parallel. One is for connection of a PT2 or PT3 plug tail, and the other is a DIN 43650 connector as
used on conductivity and capacitance probes.
Full operating instructions are supplied with each unit.
Principal features:
- A valuable diagnostic aid for Spirax Sarco boiler control installations.
- Compatible with all TDS / level probes and controllers.
- No need to fire boiler or alter water levels.

SPV1 and SPV3


Sequencing Purge Valves
Description
The Spirax Sarco sequencing purge valve is normally fitted to
a Spirax Sarco C2 probe chamber.
It allows the daily (or once per shift) test of the low level alarm
system, and blow through of the probe chamber water and steam
2.3.27 connections in accordance with UK Health and Safety Executive
Guidance Note BG01 and INDG436.
The valve opens the connections to drain separately and in
sequence to blow them through and prevent the accumulation
of deposits.
When the steam connection is opened to drain, the chamber is
emptied of water, which simulates a low water level alarm.
Its design ensures that it is impossible to leave the valve in the
wrong position since the drain connection is always open when
either the steam or water connection is shut-off.
An index plate behind the handwheel indicates the valve position.
Two versions of the valve are available;
SPV1 having a Cast iron body or SPV3 having a bronze body.
Principal features:
- Special valve seat provides tight shut-off.
- Index plate indicates valve position.
- Replaces individual isolating valves - increased safety.

Safety information, installation and maintenance
WARNING: Your attention is drawn to Safety Information Leaflet IM-GCM-10 and in the UK, to IEE Regulations (BS 7671), as
well as to any National or Regional regulations.
This product is designed and constructed to withstand the forces encountered during normal use.
Use of the product for any purpose other than as a pilot operated diaphragm valve for water could cause damage to the
product and may cause injury or fatality to personnel.

Installation notes:
- We recommend that a strainer is fitted upstream of the valve to IEE Regulations (BS 7671).

- Fit the valve with the flow in the direction of the cast arrow.

- The valve may be mounted in any position, but preferably with the solenoid uppermost.

- PTFE tape may be used on the pipe connections.

Caution - Do not overtighten screws, nuts, or pipework as this could distort the valve body.

Wiring note:

2.3.34
The rated voltage is printed on the name-plate. Note that the flat terminal is the earth connection. For ease of installation the solenoid
unit can be moved through 360 by slackening the solenoid nut. Indentations at 90 intervals in the base of the solenoid allow it to be
positively retained, though it may be positioned at any other angle if required. The cable socket may be connected horizontally or
vertically by removing the central plastic screw and turning the connector through 90. Ensure the cable socket gasket is slightly
compressed on refitting.

Maintenance note:
As the valve does not contain any lifed items, no spares are required or available. If it becomes necessary to dismantle the valve,
proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect the mains supply.

2. Remove the solenoid retaining nut and withdraw the solenoid coil.

3. Check the condition of the 'O' ring at the base of the solenoid coil.

4. Note the position of the valve bonnet in relation to the valve body. (Aligned arrows on both components indicate correct position).

5. Remove the four bonnet retaining screws.

6. Note the positioning of the spring and diaphragm.

7. Remove the spring and diaphragm, and clean and inspect all valve components.

8. Check the condition of the 'O' rings.

9. Reassemble the valve in the reverse order of dismantling.

How to specify
Pilot operated solenoid valves shall be Spirax Sarco type WV1 normally closed valve with brass body and screwed connections,
complete with corrosion resistant internals and nitrile rubber soft seat for use with water up to 80 C.

How to order
Example: 1 off Spirax Sarco WV1 pilot operated water valve, having a 1" BSP connection supplied and ready for a 230V power supply.

Remote Alarm and Shutdown Panels


for Boilers
The requirements of PM5
The Health and Safety Executive Guidance Note PM5 'Automatically controlled steam and hot water boilers' specifies some requirements
for remote alarms and the remote shutdown of boilers.
Some of the relevant sections are:
Paragraph 50 ......... when a boiler is not continually supervised it is not enough to have an alarm on the boiler. Alarms should be provided
at points where they can be heard by persons who are competent to take appropriate action 2.3.40
Paragraph 51 ........ When a boiler is subject to partial supervision it is recommended that an emergency device which will shut off the
burners should be located remote from the boiler house and should be clearly marked. (See paragraph 13).
Paragraph 13 ......... there should always be someone available on site who is competent to respond to alarms, and to take appropriate
action which at a minimum, may be to shut the boiler down safely before calling for the assistance of a trained boiler attendant.

Remote alarm panel


These requirements can be met by the installation of a 'hard wired' remote alarm panel installed at a continuously manned location such
as a telephone exchange or security point. Suitable procedures should then be established and training given on the action to take in the
case of an alarm. A typical installation is shown below.

Equipment required
1. To be fitted in each boiler panel: Boiler house
1 off Transformer 240 V (or 110 V) to 48 V. Provides low
voltage power supply to panel.
1 off Boiler shutdown relay 48 V coil. Shuts down burner
when de-energised.
3 off Boiler alarm relays 240 V (or 110 V) coils. For
signalling 1st low, 2nd low and high level alarms. Multi-core cable, 4 cores per boiler
Any number of additional alarms may easily be Typically 1000 m long using standard cable
signalled.
1 off Key operated local /remote switch. Can be used to
prevent remote alarms during manual tests and
maintenance of the boiler. Alarm and shutdown panel in remote location

2. To be fitted at the remote location:


1 off Alarm and shutdown panel for one or more boilers. Incorporates for each boiler an alarm lamp, alarm buzzer, mute button with
relay and a mushroom headed stop button which latches in the stop position and can only be reset by a key. 4 terminals per boiler.
Three boiler alarm and shutdown panel shown.
Panel dimensions:
For 1 or 2 boilers 300 x 300 x 140 mm deep
For 3 or 4 boilers 500 x 400 x 140 mm deep

3. Cable
4 cores per boiler. PVC insulated, PVC sheathed, unscreened multi-core cable can be used. Cable lengths up to 1000 m are possible
using cable size 0.5 mm per core. Longer lengths would require large cable. A suitable cable can be obtained from ESD Electronic
Services of Harlow in lengths up to 500 m, their type numbers are:
4 core 16-2-4 A 8 core 18-2-8 A 12 core 16-2-12 A 18 core 16-2-18 A

System operation
During normal operation the local /remote switches must be in 'remote'. The boiler alarm relays in each boiler panel are normally energised
which in turn keep the alarm relays in the remote panel energised and no lights show. In the case of a boiler alarm, the relays are
de-energised, the boiler alarm lamp in the remote panel lights and the buzzer sounds. The operator should then press the stop button
and may mute the buzzer. The alarm lamp continues to show whilst there is an alarm.
When the boiler attendant goes to the boiler house he should switch to 'local', rectify any faults on the boiler and set it running. The remote
stop button must then be reset with a key, and the switch in the boiler house returned to 'remote'.
If a boiler panel is switched off all power is removed from that section of the remote alarm panel so no boiler alarm is signalled. Similarly
when a boiler is switched to 'local' the alarm lamp and buzzer in the remote panel will not operate. In the case of a break in the cable the
boilers will be shut down immediately but could be restarted by switching to 'local' in the boiler house.

Testing
Any alarm system should be tested regularly. In the case of high integrity self-monitoring low level alarms, the remote panel can be tested
during the regular weekly test of the low level alarms.

Safety information, installation and maintenance
Warning: This document does not contain sufficient information to install the unit safely. The unit operates at a potentially
fatal mains voltage. Before attempting to install the unit read the Installation and Maintenance Instructions supplied with it.

In most countries, steam boilers operating with limited supervision require two self-monitoring level probes and controllers to
provide two independent low level alarms. A high level alarm is also advised, and is compulsory in some countries. The LC1350

BC3150
Blowdown Controller
Description
The BC3150 is a blowdown controller for steam boilers. It controls TDS (total dissolved solids salts in solution) by opening and
closing a blowdown valve. It works in conjunction with a Spirax Sarco conductivity sensor, a boiler blowdown valve or condensate
dump valve.

The product can be panel, DIN rail or chassis mounted and powered by a 110 to 240 Vac at 50 / 60 Hz mains supply.
2.4.20
The front panel has a 3 digit LCD and a five-button keypad.

The product has no battery. The programmed settings are held in non-volatile memory (Flash) and are written to after changing a parameter
and pressing the OK key.

Principal features:

- Blowdown controller with temperature compensation.


Clamping screw
- Type approved as a TDS limiter and controller.

- Works with CP10, CP30 or CP32 conductivity probes.


BC3150
- Wide range: 1-9990 S/cm or ppm (x1, x 10, x 100 x 1000).

- LCD display with direct probe condition indicator.

- Infrared communications. x1000

Function
All ranges and operating parameters are selected using the software menu.

Commissioning is carried out using the two lower buttons.

Once fully commissioned, the TDS value is displayed in S/cm (or ppm if selected).

If the water conductivity exceeds the Set Point level, the TDS value shown on the display will alternate with 'bld', and the valve relay will
be energised until the conductivity drops below 5% of full scale (FS) below the set point.

If the water conductivity exceeds the alarm level, the TDS value will alternate with 'AL' , and the valve relay will be energised until the
conductivity drops 3% (FS) below the alarm level.

If the system is carrying out a purge, The TDS value will alternate with 'Pur', and the valve relay will be energised until the conductivity
drops 5% (FS) below the set point.

Inputs
The BC3150 can accept a signal from a Spirax Sarco conductivity probe (CP10, CP30, or CP32).

A Pt100 temperature sensor may be connected to provide temperature compensation (2% / C). This is recommended if the boiler is
working at varying pressures, or for other applications, such as condensate monitoring or coil boilers, where the temperature may vary.
If a Pt100 is not fitted, the product uses a default temperature of 184C (10 bar g).

Outputs
Pulsed output - For smaller boilers where the capacity of the blowdown valve is relatively high compared to the boiler size, the blowdown
may be set to pulsed, rather than continuous output, opening for 10 seconds, and closing for 20 seconds. This slows the rate at which the
boiler water is removed so that the level is not unduly affected, avoiding the risk of triggering a low water alarm.

Other features
To prevent unwanted or inadvertent changes being made, all commissioning parameters are protected with a pass code.
The BC3150 can communicate via an infrared link between adjacent controllers.

This feature enables the parameters of this product (OEM) to be passed to a product fitted with RS485 (user).

The BC3150 is always an IR slave No set-up or adjustment is needed.

An isolated 4 - 20 mA output is provided as standard, and may be used for remote display of the TDS level or as an output to a computerised
management system.

Model 556 / TF56-N


Turbidity Monitoring System
Description
The Turbidity Monitoring System consists of a TF56-N Turbidimeter and a 556 Converter designed to continuously monitor for oil and
grease contamination in make-up water and condensate circulated back to the boiler feedwater system. It can also be used to monitor the
supply from mains raw water, demineralisation and reverse osmosis water treatment plants.
The turbidimeter is a precise, dual channel, scattered light turbidity monitor that uses light in the visible range (VIS) and Near Infrared
Range (NIR) from 400 to 1100 nm. A precisely defined constant light beam penetrates the fluid medium and the light scattered from any 2.4.32
particles (trace suspended solids, undissolved liquids or gas bubbles) in the medium is detected by four hermetically sealed silicon
photodiodes at an angle of 11. Simultaneously the unscattered light is detected by a reference photodiode. This unique dual channel
design compensates for colour and disturbances in the medium. The sensor can measure very low particle sizes and concentrations.
The converter has four fixed and one variable measuring range calibrated in ppm, providing continuous, real-time monitoring of a fluid
mediums turbidity. A 3-digit LED indicator displays turbidity as a percentage of the selected measuring range. Two independent set points
and a 0-20 mA or 4-20 mA output are provided by the converter for alarms and real-time remote display of turbidity monitoring. An additional
failsafe relay output is built in for remote sensing of converter lamp or power failure.

Requirements
Many countries ensure the protection and safe operation of boiler equipment, buildings and personnel through Legislation and Standards.
For example shell boilers operated in the European Community must comply with requirements of the harmonised standard EN 12953
that specifies maximum contamination levels for boilers operated unsupervised for periods of 24 or 72 hours.

Function
To protect the boiler feedwater system from oil and grease contamination, the Turbidity Monitoring System has two independent alarm
set points:
- Alarm 1 can be set to divert and discharge contaminated water above 3.0 ppm to a blowdown vessel or directly to drain.
- Alarm 2 can be set to shut down the boiler if contamination level rises above 5.0 ppm.

Diversion of contaminated supplies may be achieved with two 2-port ball valves with a turn actuator or a 3-port actuated valve.

CP32
Twin Tip Conductivity Probe
Description
The Spirax Sarco CP32 conductivity probe is used in conjunction
with a controller to measure the conductivity (or TDS) of water,
usually in a steam boiler, for the purpose of monitoring and
controlling blowdown.

2.5.3 The CP32 has a built-in temperature sensor, and when used with
an appropriate controller, is able to detect scaling. It also
automatically initiates a probe conditioning cycle. This causes any
scale on the probe to become porous or fall off, allowing the 2
probe to continue to sense at its original calibration level. (internal)
WARNING: This feature is not a substitute for adequate boiler
water treatment. If scale is occuring on a probe, it is also 1
accuring inside the boiler, and a competent water treatment
specialist must be consulted to avoid a potentially dangerous
situation.
The CP32 is supplied in three nominal tip lengths, and has a
" BSP male thread (" NPT to special order) for connection
to a Spirax Sarco probe elbow, a screwed flange, or directly into
a boiler connection. 4 3
Principal features :
- Twin tip conductivity probe for use in TDS control systems.
- Built-in temperature sensor - only one boiler connection needed.
- Suitable for use in steam boilers up to 239C @ 32 bar g
(462F @ 464 psi g).
- Patented scale detection and compensation.

Performance
The tables below show typical sample outlet temperatures above cooling water inlet temperatures for several pressures and cooling
water flowrates.

Example
A sample flowrate of 30 I / h is required from a boiler operating at 10 bar g. For a cooling water flowrate of 0.3 I / s from Table 1 the sample
outlet temperature would be 4C above the cooling water inlet temperature. If the cooling water is at 15C, the sample temperature would
be 19C.
Table 2 is used in the same way for steam.
Samples may not be taken where marked '-' as the flow is limited by the sample inlet valve capacity.

Safety information, installation and maintenance


For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions supplied with the product.
WARNING:
- To avoid the risk of scalding, it is essential that a full flow of cooling water is present before opening the sample inlet valve.
- Always close the sample inlet valve before turning off the cooling water.
- Sample pipework becomes very hot under normal working conditions, and will cause burns if touched.
Installation note:
The sample inlet to the cooler can be taken direct from a boiler or steam line isolating valve, or if a Spirax Sarco TDS control system is
tted, from the take-off point provided on the blowdown valve. We recommend that a tundish piped to drain is located under the outlet,
with sufcient space below it for a beaker or similar sample container.
Maintenance note:
No routine maintenance is required.

Safety information
Your attention is drawn to Safety Information sheet IM-GCM-10 as well as to any national or regional regulations concerning boiler blowdown.
In the UK guidance is given in HSE Guidance Note PM60.

General information
This information describes the Spirax Sarco heat recovery system which is designed to recover the heat in discharged boiler water from
automatic TDS control systems, and a proportion of this water in the form of flash steam. The heat recovery system must only be used to
recover heat from the TDS blowdown. There will be another blowdown point on the bottom of the boiler used for the intermittent removal of
precipitates. This should be kept entirely separate from the heat recovery system. Refer to separate literature for system selection details.
This equipment is designed to save energy. All pipework and the flash vessel should be lagged.

Installation
Flash vessel
As water passes through the blowdown valve it is reduced in pressure. Flash steam is formed and the pipework downstream of the valve will
contain a mixture of steam and blowdown water travelling at high velocity. If the pipeline to the flash vessel is too small in diameter the result
may be erosion of the pipework with turbulence and carryover as it enters the flash vessel.
The best arrangement is to increase the size of the pipework after the blowdown valve:

2.8.3 -
-
Install the flash vessel at a high level adjacent but not bolted to the feedtank.
Fit the pressure gauge set, safety valve and vacuum breaker as shown in Figure 2.
- Pipework from the flash vessel to the feedtank should match the vessels vent size.
- The safety valve should always be fitted with the centreline of the spring housing vertically above the valve.
- The discharge pipework must be installed so that undue stresses are not imposed upon the safety valve that could cause distortion and
leakage.
- Discharge pipework should be as short and straight as possible and discharge where it can not cause damage or injury to property or persons.
Discharge pipework must not be smaller in diameter than the valve outlet. Where it is necessary to install discharge pipework over a long
distance lowering of the performance and possible chatter can be avoided by fitting larger diameter pipe.
- There must be no shut-off device on the inlet or outlet of the safety valve.
- The size of pipework to drain should match the flash vessel drain connection size.
- The vacuum breaker must be installed in a vertical position above the flash vessel in the flash steam line to prevent a vacuum forming when
the blowdown valve shuts off.

Float trap
The build up of water in the flash vessel must be avoided so a float trap with continuous drainage of condensate at saturation temperature is
essential. The trap must be fitted so that the float arm rises and falls vertically with the direction of flow as indicated on the body. Where capacity
demands two float traps should be fitted in parallel (see Figure 3). The flowrate of residual blowdown through the trap is dependent on the head
of water above it. For the full rated capacity of the system the trap should be positioned at least 2 m below the flash vessel as shown in Figure 3.
It is usually most convenient to fit the trap at a low level for easy access immediately above the heat exchanger. No more than 1 m of horizontal
pipework should be used between the flash vessel and the float trap inlet to prevent the float trap from becoming steam locked.

Heat exchanger (see Figure 4)


All piping to and from the plate heat exchanger and shut-off valves should match the connection size of the exchanger. Pipes should be fitted
so that any thermal expansion does not affect the plate heat exchanger or the fittings. This may be accomplished inherently within the piping
or by flexible connections. Valves and piping are to be mounted without tension on the heat exchanger connections.
We recommend that the residual blowdown being discharged to drain is visible to provide a means of checking that the system is operating
correctly. Use a swan neck to ensure the primary side of the heat exchanger is always full of water. This prevents problems caused by sludge,
and damage to gaskets.

2.8.4
Fig. 4 Heat exchanger - Piping Fig. 5 Pump installation

Pump
The pump should be situated in a vertical pipe pumping upwards as shown in Figure 5. This position ensures that the pump shaft is horizontal
which reduces the thrust bearing load and ensures positive air purging from both the rotor chamber and impeller housing. Where pumps
can only be installed in horizontal pipework, it is imperative that the pump shaft is horizontal, or slightly higher at the vent plug end. The shaft
must not fall below the horizontal plane, even by a few degrees, as this causes premature wear of the top bearing and shaft. Pumps are not
to be installed with the shaft in the vertical plane, as this may lead to dry running of the top bearing, noise and possible pump failure. Try to
position the pump motor away from hot surfaces and allow access to the switch on the terminal box. Ensure that the pump is not stressed
by the pipework and that the pipework is properly supported either side of the pump. If necessary use proprietary mounting brackets. Pipework
downstream of the pump is to match the outlet connection of the pump including the isolating valve.
Arrows on the pump base indicate the water flow direction through the pump. When connecting the pump to pipework, the gasket and union
nut should be assembled dry:
- It is not necessary to use any sealants.
- Ensure that the gasket is positioned correctly and tighten the union nut firmly. Do not over tighten and take care not to displace or distort
the gasket.
- The pump should not be subjected to extremes of temperature. Do not attempt to start the pump until the system has been filled with water
and both the pump and system have been vented. To avoid any possible sediment do not fit the pump in the lowest part of the system and
position the take off point from the cold treated water storage tank above the base of the tank.
- The return line should be below the lowest water level in the storage tank.
- The minimum inlet pressure to avoid cavitation of the pump is equivalent to 2.5 m head of water. It is recommended therefore that the
pump is installed at least 2.5 m below the lowest water level of the cold treated water storage tank as shown in Figure 5.

Thermostat
The HTS3 thermostat should be installed on the pipework leading from the flash vessel drain to the heat exchanger inlet, near to the heat
exchanger, allowing easy access to the setting arrow. The base of the HTS3 should be held in good contact with the metal of the pipe
removing insulation as required. The plastic covered spring fixing cable should be cut to an unstretched length slightly less than the
circumference of the pipe and the hook and eyelet screwed into the ends. Stretch the cable round the pipe and position it in the groove
across the front of the HTS3. Engage the hook and eyelet.

Electrical connection
Pump
Contactor overload protection is not required for these pumps. A
3 amp fuse must be fitted in conjunction with a proprietary switch
capable of disconnecting the electricity supply to the motor:
- The cable size to be used is 3-core, 0.75 mm.
- The cable should be capable of withstanding a minimum
temperature of 80C.
- Remove the terminal box screw and cover.
- Thread the cable through the gland and connect as indicated in
the wiring diagram.
- Tighten the cable gland to ensure that the cable is gripped securely.
- Replace the terminal box cover and fasten securely.
WARNING : This pump must be earthed.
HTS3
Run sufficient 3-core electrical connecting cable to reach the HTS3 Thermostat
installation position without being under tension. HTS3
- Remove the HTS3 cover by undoing the central retaining screw
and connect the cable as shown in Figure 6, HTS3 Wiring diagram.
- Replace and secure the cover. Pump
- The HTS3 is double insulated and no earth connection is required.
WARNING : Disconnect mains supply before removing the cover. Fig. 6 HTS3 Wiring diagram - When hot 2 and C make contact

Commissioning
General
Following the installation and wiring of the blowdown heat recovery system and prior to refilling the cold treated water storage tank as required
all isolating valves should be closed.
- Ensure that the auto TDS system is isolated from the flash vessel until commissioning of the recovery system is complete.
- Turn the dial of the HTS3 clockwise to read an arbitrary figure and ensure that the voltage supply to the pump is off.
- Never run the pump whilst the system is dry or before the pump has been vented.

Gradually open the isolating valve leading from the cold treated water storage tank to the heat exchanger inlet. Static pressure must be
increased slowly to spare the gaskets any undue stress. Open the isolating valve downstream of the pump. Open the isolating valve on the
remaining heat exchanger inlet.
Pump / HTS3
Close the isolating valves either side of the pump i.e. on the pump outlet and on the heat exchanger inlet:
- Slacken the vent plug and remove carefully. Normally the amount of water escaping will be minimal. Take care that water does not enter
the terminal box.
- Insert a small screwdriver into the slot in the shaft end and rotate several times to ensure that the shaft is free to move.
- Replace the vent plug but do not tighten.
- Open the isolating valves either side of the pump as previously described. Switch on the power supply to the system. Using a screwdriver
turn the setting arrow of the HTS3 fully anti-clockwise. The setting marks outside the temperature scale provide a positive on and off position.
Only when fully anti-clockwise should the pump come on.
- When any remaining air has escaped and water only is present tighten the vent plug.
- The pump may be noisy when first switched on due to air remaining in the chamber this should cease after a few minutes running. If noise
persists then re-vent.
- Position the HTS3 setting arrow to the desired temperature for switching. 65C is recommended as a typical setting on this application but if
this is not exactly suitable it may be adjusted later. The requirement being that the pump should run whenever there is any useful heat to recover.
WARNING : Do not start the pump until the system has been filled with water and both the pump and system have been vented in
accordance with the above instructions.
TDS system
For commissioning of auto TDS systems refer to separate literature. Open up the TDS blowdown to the flash vessel. By blowing down through
the auto-TDS system check the operation of the blowdown heat recovery system and adjust the HTS3 switching temperature if required. Observe
in particular the operating pressure of the flash vessel that should not exceed 0.5 bar g under normal conditions and that the heat exchanger
is working correctly. The temperature of the residual blowdown flowing to drain will be below 40C in most cases but this depends
on the temperature of the water in the cold treated water tank.

Operation
Boiler water at saturation temperature is blown down from the boiler through a valve to the flash vessel. A percentage of this blowdown water
will flash to steam as its pressure is reduced typically to 0.2 bar g. The flash steam is allowed to separate in the flash vessel and is then
directly introduced into the feedtank through a steam distributor. This increases the temperature within the feedtank thus reducing heating
requirements and driving off corrosion-causing dissolved oxygen. Also reduced is the quantity of expensive treated water required to replenish
the feedtank. Residual blowdown from the flash vessel flows through a float trap to the heat exchanger where its heat content is used to
raise the temperature of water from the cold, treated water storage tank. The circulating pump is thermostatically controlled to ensure that
it only runs when the system receives blowdown and there is useful heat to be recovered.

Maintenance
Daily
There are no specific checks to be carried out daily on this system.
Weekly
Take a boiler water sample and check the TDS. Adjust the blowdown controller accordingly. Observe the system under operating conditions
for any system faults. Open the flash vessel drain valve whilst there is flow from the TDS system and check that the vessel drain is clear.
Operate the isolating valves throughout the system to ensure that they do not seize. Check that the residual blowdown discharge rate
increases as the blowdown valve opens. When the valve closes check that the residual blowdown discharged to drain eventually stops.
Annually
Examine the blowdown valve for any damage and replace parts as required. Normally it is not necessary to open a heat exchanger until it
is so dirty that its function is impaired. When required open the heat exchanger according to the manufacturers dismantling instructions and
clean each plate separately. Cleaning with the plates in the frame is recommended. Clean the plates using a water jet not an abrasive brush.
If removed the exchanger plates must be numbered to ensure that they are assembled correctly after cleaning. Inspect the float trap on the
flash vessel drain and clear out any deposits checking for any wear of the internals and free movement in all components. Re-commission
the system. For the maintenance instructions of TDS systems refer to separate literature.

Safety information, installation and maintenance


This document does not contain enough information to install the product / system safely. For full details see the Installation and Maintenance
Instructions supplied with the product.
Installation notes:
The preferred method of installation is to bolt the heat exchanger rigidly to the floor, in a vertical position. We recommend the use of a
swan neck on the primary outlet (S2) to ensure the heat exchanger does not dry out - this can otherwise cause problems with debris and
can damage the gaskets.
Maintenance note:
An annual inspection is recommended to check for leaking gaskets and the build up of scale and sludge.

Spare parts
Spare plates with integral gaskets are available from Spirax Sarco.

FV Flash Vessel
Boiler house
Heat recovery systems
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.

1. From boiler pressure move horizontally to flash steam pressure - A

2. Drop vertically to blowdown flowrate in kg / h - B

3. Follow curve to right-hand scale and across to same flash pressure - C

4. Move upwards to flash vessel size. Select flash vessel - in this case an FV8 is required.

Example 2: (dotted lines)


A plant operating on steam at 11 bar g condenses 4 000 kg/h of steam. Flash is to be recovered at 0.5 bar g.

1. From pressure on steam traps move horizontally to flash steam pressure - A1

2. Drop vertically to condensate flowrate in kg/h - B1


2.8.12
3. Follow curve to right hand scale and across to same flash pressure - C1

4. Move upwards to flash vessel size. Select flash vessel - in this case an FV12 is required.

Sizing a Flash Vessel


on up to Three Trap Pressures
Note: The full table for flash vessel sizing is shown overleaf.
Example:
The example below considers condensate from three steam systems at different pressures, 20 bar g, 10 bar g and 6 bar g, discharging into
a flash vessel designed to operate at 2 bar g.

2.8.15 The condensate loads are 1 000 kg / h, 2 000 kg / h and 4 000 kg / h respectively.
By consulting the table and entering the relevant data into the boxes below, the total amount of flash steam can be calculated in kg / h.
This is multiplied by the 'LP factor' according to the flash vessel pressure to give total volume flow in m3 / h.
Five 'Velocity factors' are shown: 67, 138, 243, 385, 560 each of which relate to a 3 m / s take-off velocity for flash vessels FV6, FV8,
FV12, FV15, and FV18 respectively. By dividing the 'Total volume' by each of the 'Velocity factors', five take-off velocities are obtained.
Choose the smallest flash vessel with a take-off velocity of less than 3 m / s.
The example shows an FV8 being the smallest flash vessel with a take-off velocity of 2.7 m / s.

Blowdown vessels
Sizing and selection
The selection of a blowdown vessel depends on the flowrate and the proportion of flash steam released.

The following factors affect the selection:

- The boiler pressure.

- The number of boilers.

- The duration of blowdown.

- The blowdown line size.

- The length of blowdown line between the boiler and the blowdown vessel.

- The blowdown regime.

For example the sizing below assumes the blowdown line has an 'equivalent straight length' of at least 7 m.
When estimating 'equivalent straight length' the lengths shown in Table 1 should be added to the length of straight pipe to allow for
valves and fittings.
From Table 1 it will be seen that in most practical applications it would be unusual for the equivalent straight length to be less than 7 m.
2.9.9 If the length is less than 7 m multiply the actual boiler pressure by 1.15 before using the sizing table, Table 2.
The blowdown regime:

- Typical normal bottom blowdown of, perhaps, 5 seconds duration.

- Weekly low level alarm testing where practice is in accordance with BG01 and INDG436 - steam down from normal level to first low
water level and blow down from first to second low water level.

- Blowdown discharges from sequencing valves on external chambers, gauge glasses etc.

- Automatic TDS control discharges.

The selection table (Table 2) only applies if the blowdown duration is no longer than 20 seconds in total, starting with a cold
vessel (water at a temperature of 15 C to 20 C).
If this time is exceeded, carryover of water with the flash steam may occur through the vent. The water may also be too hot to discharge
safely and legally into a public drainage system.
Always incorporate a cooling water system for multi-boiler applications or in instances where the frequency or duration of blowdown is
considerably in excess of the requirements stated in PM60, BG01 and INDG436.
If there is any doubt about correct vessel selection, please contact Spirax Sarco outlining the specific conditions and
blowdown regime.

Boiler pressure (bar g)

How to select the blowdown vessel:


Step 1. With the aid of Table 1, determine the equivalent straight length of the blowdown line.

Step 2. Use Table 2 to initially establish the correct size of vessel. Note that if the result of Step 1 is less than 7 m, multiple
the boiler pressure by 1.15.
If the vessel is to be used in the conditions set out above, then continue to Step 4.

Step 3. Using Table 4 which contains the vessel data, establish the volume of standing water in the selected vessel.
This volume should be at least twice that of the maximum volume of blowdown. The maximum volume of blowdown is
usually the volume discharged when blowing down from 1st low level to 2nd low level alarm. If this volume is unknown,
it can be calculated with the aid of Graph 1, where details on its use are given.
If it is determined that the volume of standing water is insufficient, then a larger blowdown vessel must be
selected in order to satisfy this requirement.

Step 4. With the aid of Table 3, the correct vent head can be selected to suit the vessel.

The selection is now complete.

Selection example:
For a 10 bar g boiler with 40 mm blowdown line at least 7 m long select, from Table 2, a BDV60/5.
From Table 3 select a VH6 vent head.

ABV21i and ABV40i


Air Actuated Boiler Blowdown Valves
Description
The Spirax Sarco ABV21i and ABV40i one piece end entry, reduced bore ball valves are fitted with 90 rotary spring return pneumatic
actuator, for boiler blowdown duties.
They are used in conjunction with a Spirax Sarco blowdown timer to provide timed control of bottom blowdown, ensuring that the
recommended boiler blowdown cycles occur with minimum heat loss, avoiding duplication or omission.
The pneumatic actuator, (which can also be operated with other non-corrosive gases), moves through 90 to open the valve, and has
a spring return fail-close operation.
2.9.18
A switch box is mounted on the actuator, and either or both microswitches may be wired to a Building Management System if required.
Note: The BT1050 blowdown timer uses one switch only to indicate 'valve fully closed' or 'valve not fully closed' positions, and does
not indicate that the valve has opened fully.
A solenoid valve is required, which may be directly mounted to the NAMUR
(VDI / VDE 3845) interface on the actuator.
A suitable solenoid valve may be selected from the Spirax Sarco MV range.
Alternatively, an air supply may be connected directly to the actuator port
'A' (" BSP), where it is necessary to install the solenoid valve remote from
the actuator.
A standard " BSP 3-way solenoid valve may also be used.
3-port / 2-way NAMUR mounting solenoid types:
MV11 - 230 Vac, MV12 - 110 Vac, MV13 - 24 Vac, MV14 - 24 Vdc

- Automatic timed blowdown minimises wasted heat.

- Suitable for boiler pressures up to 17.25 bar g.

- Spring return for fail-safe operation.

- Pneumatic actuator for fast response.

BBV
Automatic or Manually Actuated
Boiler Blowdown Valves DN15 to DN65
Description
The BBV is specifically designed for the removal of suspended / deposited solids and water from the bottom of steam boilers.
The BBV is available in air / water actuated and manual versions. The air / water-actuated version is supplied with a manual hand lever.
The valve is spring-to-close on power failure and the manual version can easily be upgraded to an automatic version.
When used with a Spirax Sarco blowdown controller the automatic version provides timed control of blowdown, ensuring that the
recommended blowdown occurs with the minimum of heat loss and avoids duplication and omissions.
The valve can be fitted with a mechanical switchbox. This can be linked to the blowdown controller or a BMS system to indicate when the
2.11.2
valve has not closed.

Principal features:
- Easily upgraded from manual to automatic operation.
- Dedicated self-adjusting and self-cleaning spindle seals.
- Engineered for the specific application of bottom blowdown.
- Flow pressure assists closing.

B850
Boiler House Energy Monitor
Description
The B850 is a flexible and easy to use Boiler House Energy Monitor that accurately calculates the efficiency of the boiler based on
measured inputs from fuel, feedwater, steam output, condensate return and blowdown.

The B850 is a boiler house energy monitoring solution that has been designed for organisations operating boilers on an existing
installed base and for boiler OEM's where customers specify a requirement for energy monitoring. The B850 calculates a boiler's 'real
time' energy transfer efficiency from fuel to steam. It will also measure for energy losses from the boiler due to blowdown applications. 2.12.2
Being fully compatible with a wide range of Spirax Sarco flowmetering products the B850 is the heart of a fully integrated system that
will provide Operating Managers in an increasing range of industries detailed information to be able to review boiler efficiency against
past performance.

The unit is available for either wall or panel mounting. The B850-W-2 and B850-W-2-UL are wall mounted versions are mains powered
(100 to 250 Vac), while the B850-P-2 panel mounting version is intended for direct connection to a Low Voltage power supply typically
found inside PLC panels, i.e. 24 Vdc.

The B850 is supplied with a default configuration that makes configuration easy, either off-line with the free PC based software wizard
provided with each product. When the configuration has been completed, it can be saved to file or to the free USB memory stick
provided, from where it can be plugged in and up-loaded directly into the unit. Alternatively, commissioning can be carried out via a
hierarchical menu structure through the front panel. Full commissioning details are included in the Installation and Maintenance
Instructions (IMI) supplied with the unit.

Spirax Sarco offers a complete range of flowmeters for the measurement of: Gas, Feedwater, Steam and make-up water.

For existing installed flowmeters the B850 can accept 4 - 20 mA, Pulse and RTD inputs.

The B850 is compatible with a large number of interfaces and protocols including: RS-485, Modbus RTU, BACnet MSTP,
RJ-45 Ethernet, Modbus TCP / IP, BACnet IP, USB and Hosted http web.

A GSM module can be connected to the RS-485 port which enables transfer of information about failures, alarms and measurement
values in the form of SMS text messages.

Gilflo ILVA Flowmeters


System Overview
Description
The Spirax Sarco Gilflo ILVA flowmetering system consists of two EL2271
major parts: temperature
transmitter
1. The Gilflo ILVA pipeline unit. This is installed in the line where
the flow is to be measured. Using impulse pipework, this is Gilflo ILVA
connected to:
2. The M610 DP transmitter assembly. This measures the
differential pressure across the Gilflo ILVA pipeline unit and

3.2.1
converts it to a 4 -20 mA output signal. This output signal can EL2600
be used in a number of ways: pressure

i- To act as a suitable input to an EMS / BEMS which can be
programmed by the user to carry out the linearising of the
output signal based on the calibration data that is supplied F50C isolation valves
with each Gilflo ILVA flowmeter. Additional inputs from the
EL2600 pressure transmitter and EL2271 temperature
transmitter can be used to carry out density compensation
for compressible flow applications.
ii- To supply an M750 display unit. This gives a non- M610
compensated display of rate of flow and totalised flow. It is DP transmitter assembly
suitable for liquid, gas and steam applications where density (for gas applications the
compensation is not required. M610 DP transmitter is
mounted above the
iii- To supply a Spirax Sarco M850 flow computer. Use of the Gilflo ILVA)
pressure and temperature transmitters enables automatic
density compensation to be carried out for compressible
flow applications. See the relevant TI for details of
pressure / temperature limits for flow computers.

The Gilfo ILVA pipeline unit can be used to measure the flow of
most industrial liquids, gases and vapours within the pressure
and temperature limits detailed in the TI's.

Installation
Care must be taken to meet all the requirements of the Installation EMS/
BEMS
and Maintenance Instructions that are included with the equipment.
Some installation points to watch are noted overleaf.
In addition, heat metering is possible on saturated steam systems or
by replacing the EL2600 pressure transmitter with an EL2271

Installation points to watch:


1. Ensure that all pipework is adequately supported and properly aligned. Special care should be taken to ensure that the Gilflo ILVA
pipeline unit is concentrically mounted in the line.

2. The Gilflo ILVA pipeline unit should be selected on capacity rather than line size. Where line size changes on steam systems are
necessary, use eccentric reducers to avoid build-up of condensate.

3. The minimum recommended lengths of straight pipe upstream and downstream are 6 D and 3 D respectively. See other literature
for more details concerning the Gilflo ILVA.

4. Take care to ensure the correct direction of flow as indicated by the arrow on the flowmeter body.

5. Take care to avoid reverse flow through the flowmeter.

6. Avoid installing the flowmeter downstream of a pressure reducing valve (especially on steam systems) as this may cause inaccurate
readings. Similarly, avoid installing the flowmeter downstream of a partially open valve.

7. Remember that actuated valves may cause rapid pressure fluctuations which could cause damage.

8. On steam or liquid systems, the M610 DP transmitter assembly is mounted below the flowmeter. Take care to ensure that all impulse
lines remain full to prevent damage to the DP transmitter through contact with steam or high temperature liquid.

9. For steam applications, care should be taken to ensure adequate line drainage, trapping etc., to avoid condensate slugs impacting
the flowmeter. Where practicable, steam separators should be fitted. These should be drained using a float trap set.

10. For gas applications, the M610 DP transmitter assembly is installed above the pipework. Ensure that the impulse lines allow
3.2.2
free drainage of moisture away from the DP transmitter and back into the pipeline.

1. The Gilflo ILVA should be mounted with a minimum of 6 straight
pipe diameters upstream and 3 downstream. No valves, fittings or TF = Actual flow temperature (K) = C + 273

Sizing the Gilflo ILVA flowmeter


In order to determine the flow capacity of a Gilflo ILVA pipeline unit, it is necessary to calculate the equivalent water flowrate (Q E) based
on the anticipated actual flow (see Step 1).
The Table below is used to select the appropriate unit (steam only).

Step 1. Determine equivalent water flowrate (Q E) in l/min:- Step 2. Using the value of Q E as determined in Step 1, select
Mass flow units Volumetric units the correct size of the Gilflo ILVA flowmeter using the Table below.

Safety information, installation and maintenance


For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions supplied with the product.
Installation note:
The following main points are given here for guidance:
1. The Gilflo ILVA should be mounted with a minimum of 6 straight pipe diameters upstream and 3 downstream. No valves, fittings or
cross sectional changes are permitted within these pipe lengths. Where an increase in nominal pipe diameter is required upstream of
the flowmeter, the length of straight pipe should be increased to 12 diameters. Similarly, where a Gilflo ILVA is installed downstream
of two 90 bends in two planes, a pressure reducing valve or a partially open valve, 12 upstream pipe diameters should be allowed.
2. It is important that the internal upstream and downstream diameters of pipe are smooth. Ideally seamless pipes should be used. It is
recommended that slip-on flanges be used to avoid any intrusive weld beads on the internal diameter of the pipe.
3. Care should be taken to install the Gilflo ILVA concentrically in the line. If this is not done, flow measurement errors may occur.
4. The Gilflo ILVA should be mounted horizontally.
5. For steam applications, good basic steam engineering practices should be followed:
- Correct line drainage through adequate trapping.
- Good alignment and support of associated pipework.
- Line size changes achieved by the use of eccentric reducers.

cause inaccuracies and/or possible damage. Similarly avoid (steam / gas)
installing the flowmeter downstream of a partially open valve.
7. Remember that actuated valves may cause rapid pressure Outputs,
fluctuations which could cause damage. alarms, etc.
8. On steam or liquid systems take care to ensure that all impulse
lines remain full to prevent damage to the DP transmitter
through contact with steam or high temperature liquid.
9. For steam applications, care should be taken to ensure
adequate line drainage, trapping etc., to avoid condensate
slugs impacting the flowmeter. Where practicable, steam
separators should be fitted. These should be drained using a
float trap set.
10. For gas applications ensure that the DP cell and impulse lines
are positioned above the pipework. Also ensure that the
impulse lines allow free drainage of moisture away from the
DP cell and back into the pipeline.

M610 Series II
DP Transmitter Assembly
Description
The M610 Series I I DP transmitter assembly is designed to accept a differential pressure input from a primary flow element such as an
orifice plate or Gilflo flowmeter and convert it into an analogue 4 - 20 mA output signal. The standard version comes with digital
communications in the form of HART 5.2 which is superimposed on the 4 - 20 mA output. The 3-way manifold which is supplied already
assembled to the DP transmitter acts as a means of secondary isolation and as a pressure equalisation valve to check the zero of the DP
transmitter.
The M610 Series II DP transmitter assembly consists of two items:
- A high accuracy (0.1%) differential pressure transmitter.
3.2.17 - A 3-way carbon steel isolation manifold.
Note: These items are supplied already assembled.

TVA
Flowmeter for
Saturated and Superheated Steam Service
Description
The Spirax Sarco TVA flowmeter is designed for use on saturated and superheated steam (with the dedicated pressure sensor kit) and
operates on the target principle, by measuring the force produced on a moving cone by the fluid flow. This force is then converted into
density compensated mass flowrate and is transmitted via a single loop powered 4 - 20 mA and pulsed output. TVA flowmeters also
incorporate a totalised flow function and EAI 232C (RS 232) or EAI 485C (RS485) Modbus communications.

(in accordance with ISO 17025)
2% of measured value from 10% to 100% of maximum rated flow.

0.2% FSD, from 2% to 10% of maximum rated flow.

Turndown : up to 50:1

As the TVA flowmeter is a self contained unit, the uncertainty quoted is for the complete system. Many flowmeters claim a pipeline unit
uncertainty and for a true system uncertainty, the individual uncertainty values of any associated equipment, such as DP cells, need to
be added to the pipeline value.

Pressure drop
The pressure drop across the TVA is nominally 750 mbar (300 ins water gauge) at maximum rated flow for the DN50, and 500 mbar (200
inches water gauge) for the DN80 and DN100.

Safety information, installation and maintenance


3.3.5 For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions (IM-P192-02) supplied with the product.

The following main points are given for guidance only:

1. The TVA flowmeter should be mounted with a minimum of 6 straight pipe diameters upstream and 3 downstream. No valves, fittings or
cross sectional changes are permitted within these pipe lengths. Where an increase in nominal pipe diameter is required, upstream of the
flowmeter, the length of straight pipe should be increased to 12 diameters. Similarly, where a Spirax Sarco TVA is installed downstream
of two 90 bends in two planes, a pressure reducing valve or a partly open valve, 12 upstream pipe diameters should be allowed.

2. It is important that the internal upstream and downstream diameters of pipe are smooth. Ideally seamless pipes should be used and
there should be no intrusive weld beads on the internal diameter. It is also recommended that slip-on flanges are used to avoid this.

3. Care should be taken to install the TVA flowmeter concentrically in the line. If this is not done, flow measurement errors may occur.

4. The TVA flowmeter can be installed in any orientation up to a line pressure of 7 bar g whilst conditions are saturated. When conditions
are superheated then the TVA flowmeter can only be installed in horizontal pipework, with the electronics below the pipeline.

5. As for all steam flowmetering installations, good basic steam engineering practices should be followed:

- Correct line drainage through adequate trapping.

- Good alignment and support of associated pipework.

- Line size changes achieved by the use of eccentric reducers.

- Do not lag (insulate) the TVA body or the mating flanges.

6. The TVA flowmeter must not be installed outside where it can be subjected to driving rain or where it is liable to freeze.

TFA
Flowmeter for
Saturated Steam Service
Description
The Spirax Sarco TFA flowmeter is designed for use on saturated steam only and
operates on the target principle, by measuring the force produced on a target by
the fluid flow. This force is then converted into density compensated mass flowrate
or power and is transmitted via a single loop powered 4-20 mA and pulsed output. TFA flowmeter
TFA flowmeters also incorporate a totalised flow function and EIA 232C (RS232) body
or EIA 485C (RS485) Modbus communications.

Safety information, installation and maintenance
For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions (IM-P193-02 and IM-P193-03) supplied with the product.

The following main points are given for guidance only:

1. The TFA flowmeter should be mounted with the 'concave' side of the target facing upstream, with a minimum of 6 straight pipe diameters
upstream and 3 downstream. No valves, fittings or cross sectional changes are permitted within these pipe lengths. Where an increase
in nominal pipe diameter is required, upstream of the flowmeter, the length of straight pipe should be increased to 12 diameters.
Similarly, where a flowmeter is installed downstream of two 90 bends in two planes, a pressure reducing valveor a partly open valve,
12 upstream pipe diameters should be allowed.

2. It is important that the internal upstream and downstream diameters of pipe are smooth. Ideally seamless pipes should be used and
there should be no intrusive weld beads on the internal diameter.

3. The TFA flowmeter must be installed concentrically in the line using the centralising bush kit (ordered separately). If this is not done,
flow measurement errors may occur.

4. The TFA flowmeter can be installed in any orientation up to a line pressure of 7 bar g (102 psi g).

5. As with all steam flowmetering installations, good basic steam engineering practices should be followed:

- Correct line drainage through adequate trapping.

- Good alignment and support of associated pipework.

3.3.9 - Line size changes achieved by the use of eccentric reducers.

TEG10
Thermoelectric Generator for use with
Spirax Sarco wireless enabled flowmeters
Description
The TEG10 thermoelectric generator generates low voltage dc
power suitable for powering Spirax Sarco wireless enabled remote
flowmeters. The TEG10 uses thermoelectric modules which are
solid state integrated circuits that utilise Seebeck Thompson effect,
to convert heat energy into power. It is ideally suited for use with
powering remote flowmeters that use HART wireless technology
for communication, saving costs associated with power provided
by hard wiring and installation.
The TEG10 can be clamped to a steam pipe in sizes DN50, DN80
and DN100 that are flowing saturated steam between 3 to 32 bar g.
3.3.10
Standards:
- The TEG10 carries the mark when so required.
- The Spirax Sarco flowmeters and TEG10 have been tested as a
radio system which comes under the R & TTE Directive. Due to 1
this, the TEG10 has been assessed under the LVD (Low Voltage
Directive) 2006 / 95 / EC.
Please note that the above standards are only applicable when
used with Spirax Sarco's WirelessHARTTM TVA flowmeter.

Description
The M410 orifice plate and carrier assembly is a primary flow element
consisting of a tab handled square edged orifice plate and optional
carrier. The orifice plate is designed and manufactured to meet the
requirements of British Standard BS 1042 and International Standard
Organisation ISO 5167 in all respects and is suitable for the M410 orifice plate
measurement of the rate of flow for most liquids, gases and steam.
The tab handled orifice plate can be used for either:
a: on its own fitted between flanges with pressure tappings in the
3.4.1 users pipework or flanges.
or
b: fitted into a carrier with integral flange tappings designed to fit
between customer flanges.

Limiting conditions
The pressure and temperature limitations of both the tab handled plate
and the carrier assembly are the same as the specified flange ratings.

Performance
To BS 1042 and ISO 5167.
The performance of an orifice plate flowmetering system can be
greatly influenced by installation variables, so the figures given below
are for guidance only:
Typically 3% of actual flow
Accuracy (equivalent to 1.5% full scale deflection at 50%
of rated maximum flow)
Repeatability Typically 0.3%
Turndown Typically 4:1

Pipe sizes available


Tab handled plates with or without carriers are available to suit the
following pipe sizes:
DN25, DN40, DN50, DN65, DN80, DN100, DN125, DN150, DN200,
DN250, DN300, DN350, DN400, DN450, DN500 and DN600.

Connections
Tab handled plates and carriers are available to suit the following
flange specifications:
EN 1092 PN16, PN25 and PN40.
BS 10 Table H.
ASME B 16.5 Class 150, 300, 600.
Japanese Industrial Standard JIS 20.
Korean Standard KS 20.

Materials
Tab handled orifice plate BS 1449 S 316
Carrier Passivated zinc plated carbon steel
Gaskets Exfoliated graphite

Pressure tappings
When the tab handled orifice plates are used without the optional
carrier, it is the responsibility of the user to provide appropriate
presssure tappings in either his flanges or upstream and downstream
pipework in line with BS 1042 / ISO 5167.
The optional carrier assembly incorporates upstream and downstream
pressure tappings threaded " NPT. These tappings are 25.4 mm M410 orifice plate

Safety information, installation and maintenance


For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions
supplied with the product. T, Note 2
Installation note:
It is important that all details of the installation conform to BS 1042 /
ISO 5167. Of special note, is the long, straight lengths of pipe that C, Note 1
must be present upstream of the orifice plate. As an approximate
guide, 20 to 30 pipe diameters upstream and 5 downstream should
be adequate but it is recommended that reference is made to the
relevant standard (BS 1042 / ISO 5167). A summary of the basic
requirements is included with the M410 equipment.
Maintenance note:
A visual inspection of the orifice plate should be made at regular
intervals to check for dirt build-up, damage or a loss of sharpness
of the upstream edge of the plate. Replacement orifice plates and
gaskets are available from Spirax Sarco.

How to specify
Orifice plate primary element with / without optional carrier assembly
conforming to BS 1042 / ISO 5167.

EL2270 and EL2271


Temperature Probes
Description
EL2270
The EL2270 is a Pt100 platinum resistance temperature sensor for general industrial use. The sensing device is an RTD 3 wire device
that meets EN 60751: Class A. This sensor can be connected directly to any temperature indicator or controller that has a 3 wire Pt100
input. A quick response version (40 mm insertion length only) is also available for applications such as plate heat exchanger control.
A miniature version of the EL2270 may also be ordered. This has a " BSP taper thread, and a tip length of 39 mm.

EL2271
The EL2271 is a combined Pt100 sensor and transmitter assembly. The sensing element is a 3 wire device that meets EN 60751:
Class A and the transmitter has a 4 - 20 mA output.
An ATEX approved version is available to special order.
3.5.14
A comprehensive standard range is normally available from stock. Non-standard ranges can be obtained to special order, subject to a
low limit of -50 C, and a maximum of +500 C. The 4 - 20 mA output can be connected directly to any temperature indicator, controller
or flow computer that has a 4 - 20 mA input. Contact Spirax Sarco for further details. Transmitters with 3 point calibration are available
to special order.

Pockets (thermowells)

General
Three types of pockets are available:
1. Thin wall with a " NPT process connection for non-flow applications only.

2. Drilled taper with a " NPT process connection.

3. Hygienic, to 3A sanitary standard, with a 1" sanitary clamp connection


(ASME BPE) electropolished to 0.4 m (a Declaration of Conformity is
available).

Note: No pocket is available for the miniature EL2270.


Material 316 stainless steel

Maximum temperature 500 C

Selection
Pockets are sized to suit the probe tip length 'D', and are specified as 'pocket to
suit a _ _ mm probe'.

Note 1 - The pocket dimension 'F' is 25 mm shorter than the probe length 'D',
which appears to be incorrect. The reason is that the threaded body of the pocket
acts as a stand-off, and therefore allows adequate clearance between the probe
tip and the end of the pocket.
Note 2 - Pockets to suit 225 mm and 725 mm probes are for non-flow
applications only (maximum flow velocity 0.65 m/sec).

Pressure/temperature limits
The EL2270 and EL2271 temperature probes can be used in applications where the process temperature is within the following limits.
Where greater temperatures and pressures are present, the temperature probe should be fitted with a pocket.
For air and steam applications, flow velocities must be below 45 m/s (32 m/s for fabricated pockets).
For liquids a recommended velocity is 5 m/s (700 mm and 200 mm non-flow applications only).

UTM10 Series
Ultrasonic Transit-time Flowmeters

Description
UTM10 ultrasonic flow and energy meters clamp onto the outside of pipes and do not make contact with the internal liquid. The
technology has inherent advantages over alternate devices including: low-cost installation, no pressure head loss, no moving parts to
maintain or replace, no fluid compatibility issue, and a large, bi-directional measuring range that ensures reliable readings even at very
low and high flowrates. UTM10 is available in a variety of configurations that permit the user to select a meter with features suitable to
meet particular application requirements.

The UTM10 is available in two versions: a stand-alone flowmeter, and an energy flowmeter used in conjunction with dual clamp-on,
or dual insertion RTDs. The energy flowmeter measures energy usage in kJ, Wh, BTU and Tons and is ideal for retrofit, chilled water 3.6.2
and other HVAC applications.

VLM10
In-line Vortex Mass Flowmeter

Description
The VLM10 in-line vortex flowmeter measures process fluid flow
by detecting the frequency at which vortices are shed from an
obstruction in the process fluid line (the bluff body). A piezo-electric
sensor mounted outside of the fluid flow acts as a transducer,
converting the pulses into electrical signals. An internal temperature
sensor along with the multi-variable electronics provide mass flow
rate of liquid, gas and steam applications. The VLM10 measures
all process variables with a single device providing outstanding
accuracy and reduces installation costs. Simplified commissioning 3.7.2
through an easy to use local display or internet accessible web
server.

VLM10 electronics provide excellent noise immunity, while a wide


range of wetted materials provide outstanding compatibility with
most process fluids. The transmitter provides a wide range of outputs
including Modbus RTU, BACnet MS / TP, Modbus TCP / IP IP, analog,
frequency and pulse outputs.

Local indicator and totalizer


The indicator displays flowrate and total in user-selectable, engineering units. The OLED display has selectable character sizes.
The totalizer enables a pulse output providing a 5 - 999 msec pulse each time the totalizer increments.

Remote mount electonics


Signal cable is provided to mount the electronics enclosure up to 30 m (100 ft) from the flowmeter flow tube, and must be installed
within proper electrical conduit.

Straight run piping requirements


Typical 10 diameters upstream, 5 diameters downstream. In certain applications where multiple bends or butterfly valves are present,
more straight run may be required.

Some typical piping configurations / considerations Upstream Downstream


One 90 elbow before the flowmeter 10 D 5D
Two 90 elbows belore the flowmeter 10 D 5D
Two 90 elbows out of plane before the flowmeter 30 D 5D
Reduction before the flowmeter 10 D 5D
Regulator or valve partially closed 30 D 5D

Other installation considerations


Installation
A flowmeter can be installed vertically, horizontally, or at any
angle. For liquid service, the flow line must remain full during
flowmeter operation.
Site selection
The flow measurement location should be selected to minimize 3.5 to 7
turbulence and swirl. The extent of these flow disturbances internal diameters
depends upon the piping configuration. Valves, elbows,
pumps and other piping components may add disturbances Pressure
to the flow. Flow transmitter
Serviceability
The sensor element and temperature sensor can be
removed, and replaced, without removing the flowmeter
body from the process line, and without process shut
down for process pressures below 52 bar g (750 psi g).
The flowmeter K-factor is not affected by sensor or electronics
servicing.
Pressure tap
The pressure tap should be mounted 3.5 to 7 pipe diameters
downstream from the flowmeter. See Figure 1. Fig. 1 Pressure tap dimensions

Flowmeter sizing
Selecting the appropriate size flowmeter can be critical. If the flowmeter is over-sized, the signal strength could be weak limiting
rangeability. If the flowmeter is under-sized, excessive pressure drop or cavitation may occur affecting accuracy. Use the minimum
linear flow velocity curves and Tables 1 through 5 (minimum and maximum flowrates for various types of applications) for general sizing.

One 90 elbow before the flowmeter 10 D 5D
Two 90 elbows before the flowmeter 15 D 5D
Two 90 elbows out of plane before the flowmeter 30 D 5D
Reduction before the flowmeter 10 D 5D
Regulator or valve partially closed before the flowmeter 30 D 5D

D = Internal diameter of the pipe.


If there is not a sufficient straight run of pipe, a flow rectifier may be used to reduce the above diameter measurements.
Consult your local Spirax Sarco representative or the factory for your specific application.

Other installation considerations:


- Tap size
50 mm (2") minimum diameter.

- Mounting position
The RIM10 may be installed in vertical, horizontal, or angled pipe sections. The flowmeter is attached perpendicular to the axis of the
pipe and should not be mounted 'upside-down' (with its top section hanging below the pipe mount). For liquid service, the fluid must
completely fill the pipe.

- Site selection
The flow measurement location should be selected to minimize turbulence and swirl. The extent of these flow disturbances depends
upon the piping configuration. Valves, elbows, pumps, and other piping components may add disturbances to the flow.

- Hot-tap compatibility
The RIM10-600 is hot-tap compatible, which means that the sensor can be installed and removed under full flow conditions.
The RIM10-900 and 900H is hot tap compatible when installed with a 2" double flanged, full-port ball or gate valve that adheres to the
dimensions.

- Bi-directional flow (option)


The RIM10 is capable of bi-directional flow measurement only when a bi-directional rotor is ordered with the flowmeter. The rotor will be
calibrated in both directions - See 'RIM10 rotor selection guide'.

RIM10 rotor selection guide


Selection of the RIM10 rotor model depends upon the fluid type and operating velocity range of the fluid.
- For all liquids, the model L1 or L1B rotor, with a maximum velocity of 9 metres / second (30 feet / second), must be used.
Please note that the L1B is a bidirectional rotor.
- For gases and steam, six different rotors are available with maximum velocities ranging from 16 - 53 metres / second
(55 - 175 feet / second) - See the Table below for the maximum velocity limits (V max.) for all rotors.
The RIM10 rotor will typically respond linearly over the velocity range from 'V lin' to 'V max' within 1.0% (3.0% for the G6 rotor).
This is defined as the 'linear' range of the rotor. The minimum 'measurable' velocity (V min) can be considered the application minimum.
Velocities from 'V min' to 'V lin' are measurable and repeatable, but less accurate.
When determining the fluid velocity limits for a given rotor, the following equations can be used to compute fluid velocity.

Note: Rotors have moving parts that require periodic maintenance - See page 8, 'How to order replacement rotors'.

Description
Spira-trolTM is a range of two-port single seat globe valves with cage retained seats
conforming to EN and ASME standard. These valves are available in three body
materials in sizes ranging from DN15 to DN200 (" to 8"). When used in conjunction
with a pneumatic or electric linear actuator they provide characterized modulating or
on / off control.

Spira-trolTM valve characteristic - options:


Equal percentage (E) - Suitable for most modulating process control
JE
applications providing good control at all flowrates.
JF Fast opening (F) - For on /off applications only.

QLM and QLD Series


Three-port Control Valves
Description
The QLM and QLD are three-port control valves which have linear characteristics
for mixing or diverting service. These valves can be used on thermal oil,
compressed air, steam, condensate and some other fluids.They are available in
four body materials: cast iron, SG iron, carbon steel or stainless steel. All valves
can be supplied with the standard metal-to-metal seats, stellite facing for increased
resistance to wear or soft seats for tight shut-off. The standard stem sealing is by
spring adjusted PTFE chevrons but high temperature graphite seals or metal
bellows with supplementary safety packing may also be specified.

PF51G
Bronze Piston Actuated
On / Off Valves
Description
A 2-port pneumatically actuated on /off bronze valve for use on
water, air, oil and gases. It can also be used on lower specification
steam applications.
A pneumatic signal acts on the actuator piston to open or close
the valve with a spring return action. The valve plugs have a PTFE
soft seal (G) to provide a tight shut-off. A valve position indicator
is included on standard and flow regulator models.
Valves are available with one of three sizes of actuator:
Type 1 (45 mm), Type 2 (63 mm) and Type 3 (90 mm) with the
following action options:
- NC (Normally Closed)
These valves are designed for flow over the seat (port 1 to 2).
Caution: Not recommended for waterhammer prevention. 4.1.96
- NO (Normally Open)
These valves are designed for flow under the seat (port 2 to 1).
Can be used to prevent waterhammer on valve closure in liquid
applications.
- BD (Bi-Directional normally closed)
These valves are designed for special applications that require
flow in both directions and incorporates an anti-waterhammer
design for liquid applications f lowing under the seat
(por t 2 to 1). Note: To help prevent the possibility of
waterhammer on liquid applications flowing over the seat
(port 1 to 2) the pressure should not exceed 1 bar g.

Optional extras (see 'Valve selection guide', page 7):

PF6
Stainless Steel
Piston Actuated On/Off Valves
Description
A 2-port pneumatically actuated on / off stainless steel valve for use on
steam, water, air, oil and gases. A pneumatic signal acts on the actuator
piston to open or close the valve with a spring return action. A valve
position indicator is included on standard and flow regulator models.
Standard versions have PTFE stem seals for operation up to 180 C.
Optionally, high temperature stem seals (H) can be provided for
operation up to 200 C.

Valves are available with one of three sizes of actuator:

Type 1 (45 mm), Type 2 (63 mm) and Type 3 (90 mm) with the following
action options:
- NC (Normally Closed) - Designed for flow over the seat (port 1 to 2).
Caution: Not recommended for waterhammer prevention. 4.1.104
- NO (Normally Open) - Designed for flow under the seat (port 2 to 1).
Can be used to prevent waterhammer on valve closure in liquid
applications.

- BD (Bi-Directional normally closed) - Designed for special


applications that require flow in both directions and incorporates an
anti-waterhammer design for liquid applications flowing under the seat
(port 2 to 1). Note: To help prevent the possibility of waterhammer on
liquid applications flowing over the seat (port 1 to 2) the pressure
should not exceed 1 bar g.

How to use the sizing data on pages 4 to 23:


The following tables supply guidance as to the sizing of the PN9000 when it is used on a Spira-trol TM control valve.

Two conditions are illustrated in tabular form:


Class IV shut-off - Providing shut-off of the valve to the requirements of BS 5793-4 (IEC 60534-4) class IV.
Class VI shut-off - Providing shut-off of the valve to the requirements of BS 5793-4 (IEC 60534-4) class VI.

To select a suitable actuator:


- Identify the column containing the valve and gland material selected.
- Identify the maximum operating pressure condition, including any transient pressures likely to occur, within the selected column.
- Read back to the left hand side of the table to identify the suitable actuator for the application.
For conditions outside of those illustrated please contact Spirax Sarco.

PN9000 series selection guide:
Before making your PN9000 series selection please reference pages 4 to 27 - Sizing data

How to use the sizing data:


The tables supply guidance as to the sizing of the PN9000 when it is used on a SPIRA-TROL control valve.

Two conditions are illustrated in tabular form:


Class IV shut-off - Providing shut-off of the valve to the requirements of BS 5793-4 (IEC 60534-4) class IV.
Class VI shut-off - Providing shut-off of the valve to the requirements of BS 5793-4 (IEC 60534-4) class VI.

To select a suitable actuator:


- Identify the column containing the valve and gland material selected.
- Identify the maximum operating pressure condition, including any transient pressures likely to occur, within the selected column.
- Read back to the left hand side of the table to identify the suitable actuator for the application.
For conditions outside of those illustrated please contact Spirax Sarco.

How to use the sizing data:


The following tables supply guidance as to the sizing of the TN2000 when it is used on the SPIRA-TROL series control valves.

There are three applications: Two conditions are illustrated in tabular form in each of the applications:
- Unbalanced flow under applications Class IV shut-off - Providing shut-off of the valve to the requirements of
- Unbalanced flow over applications EN 60534-4 (IEC 60534-4) Class IV.
- Balanced applications Class VI shut-off - Providing shut-off of the valve to the requirements of
EN 60534-4 (IEC 60534-4) Class VI.
Class V shut-off - Providing shut-off of the valve to the requirements of
EN 60534-4 (IEC 60534-4) Class V.

To select a suitable actuator:


- Identify the column containing the valve and gland material selected.
- Identify the maximum operating pressure condition, including any transient pressures likely to occur, within the selected column.
- Read back to the left hand side of the table to identify the suitable actuator for the application.

For conditions outside of those illustrated please contact Spirax Sarco.

Note: With exception to the TN2277SE, the values in the following tables are based on the air pressure indicated below the product
nomenclature of the specific unit. In the event of air failure you will require an air pressurised tank to position the valve.

Limit Switches
Description
The switch kits are for use with linear pneumatic actuators conforming to the NAMUR standard. The series provides switched electric or
variable resistance outputs, relative to the valve actuator position.

How to choose the right limit switch for your actuator and application:
Identify the actuator and valve travel Example: If the travel < = 30 mm then choose between an SLM1, SLI1 or SLI2
Identify your electronic signal requirements Example: 250 Vac and 3 A = > Choose between an SLM1 or SLM2
Make your choice between the inductive or mechanical
Example: 2 sensors open / close in inductive = > Choose an SLI1
and if you require one or two sensors.
Do you need ATEX certification ? Example: Yes = > Choose between an SLI1 or SLI2

Applications and technical data


The switch kits series can be used with the following Spirax Sarco actuators using the fixing kit specified: 4.2.36

Electric actuators
How to use the sizing data:
The following tables supply guidance as to the sizing of the AEL6 series actuator when it is used on the Spira-trolTM K and L series valves.

Three conditions are illustrated in tabular form:


KE, LE, KEA - 2-port valve: Class IV shut-off - Providing shut-off of the valve to the requirements of BS 5793-4 (IEC 60534-4)
class IV.
KE, LE, KEA - 2-port valve: Class VI shut-off - Providing shut-off of the valve to the requirements of BS 5793-4 (IEC 60534-4)
class VI.
QL - 3-port valve: Class IV shut-off - Providing shut-off of the valve to the requirements of BS 5793-4 (IEC 60534-4) class IV.

To select a suitable actuator:


- Identify the column containing the valve size and gland material selected.
- Identify the maximum operating pressure condition, including any transient pressures likely to occur, within the selected column.
- Read back to the left hand side of the table to identify the suitable actuator for the application.

For conditions outside of those illustrated please contact Spirax Sarco.

Maximum differential pressures for modulating duties only


KE, LE, KEA and LEA 2-port valves.
For pure control applications providing control across the full valve operating range, but not guaranteeing shut-off to a greater level than
the minimum flowrate based on the valve 50:1 turndown.

EL7200 Series
Electric Actuators
Description
EL7200 series electric actuators are available for use with the
following supply voltages: 230 Vac, 115 Vac and 24 Vac. This
range of electric actuators has three user-configurable control
modes as standard:
- (VMD) Valve Motor Drive,
- (0 / 4 - 20 mA) modulating control or
- (0 / 2 - 10 Vdc) modulating control.
When they have been fitted to a control valve they provide
modulating control or on / off action.

EL7200 series electric actuators can be used with the following


valves:

SP400
Electropneumatic Smart Positioner
Description
The SP400 is a loop powered digital valve positioner for linear and
quarter-turn pneumatic valves. It has been designed for users that
want the benefits of a smart digital positioner but do not need all
the functionality and extra features of the SP500.
Precise control is maintained through valve position feedback that
automatically varies the pneumatic output pressure to overcome For the
the effects of stem friction and flow forces to maintain programmable
the desired valve position. Indication of valve position is provided functions see
page 2
through a continuous digital display of % travel.
The pneumatics are based on piezo-valve technology giving high
resolution, high reliability, vibration insensitivity and class-leading
low air consumption.

4.4.5 The SP400 includes straightforward functionality that can be easily


set up through the screen and keypad. The absence of mechanical
SP400 with front cover closed
linkages greatly reduces the time required for the mounting
procedure and the software has been designed to simplify
operations as much as possible: commissioning requires just
assembling the SP400 to the valve and pressing one button.
The SP400 is supplied with a NAMUR standard mounting kit for
attachment to yoke or pillar mounted actuators. For quarter-turn
valves, a mounting kit compliant to VDI / VDE 3845 is supplied.

Air supply
The SP400 smart positioner must be provided with a high
quality air supply. A Spirax Sarco MPC2 filter regulator with
coalescing filter or equivalent must be used. A fixing kit is
available to mount the MPC2 filter regulator onto the actuator.

SP500
Electropneumatic Smart Positioner
Description
The SP500 smart valve positioner is a loop powered device
that is able to drive linear and quarter turn pneumatic valves.
A 4-20 mA input signal determines the valve set point.
Precise control is maintained through valve position feedback
that automatically varies the pneumatic output pressure to For the
overcome the effects of stem friction and flow forces to maintain programmable
desired valve position. Indication of valve position is provided functions see
through a continuous digital display of % travel. Valve position page 2
feedback is retrieved by means of a non contact technology based
on Hall effect. The pneumatics are based on piezovalve technology
- Therefore, high resolution, high reliability, vibration insensitivity
and extremely low air consumption is guaranteed at steady state. SP500 with front cover closed
The SP500 includes many smart functions that can be fully
programmed through menu driven software using an integral
4.4.7 keypad and LCD alphanumeric data. Valve commissioning is
simplified through an autostroke routine and LCD data of
programming status, software travel switch status, mA input signal
and valve diagnostics data. Moreover, the absence of mechanical
linkages between the valve stem and the positioner, drastically
simplifies and reduces the time required for the mounting
procedure. The SP500 is supplied with a NAMUR standard
mounting kit for attachment to yoke or pillar mounted actuators.
For quarter turn valves, a mounting kit compliant to VDI / VDE 3845
is supplied.
The SP500 smart valve positioner supports optional expansion to
include the HART communication protocol, enabling complete SP500 with front cover removed
configuration using a PC or handheld device

The capacity varies for both the 37D and 37DE according to the pressure drop across them. The chart above enables the capacity to be
read off for different pressure drops. The maximum capacity occurs when the downstream pressure is at, or below 58% of the absolute
upstream pressure (Critical pressure drop). For many applications, valves can be satisfactorily sized on 10% pressure drop, i.e. with a
downstream which is 90% of the absolute upstream and a 10% pressure drop line is included in the chart to allow this to be done easily.

How to use the chart


The way in which the chart is used is explained by examples:
Example 1. Firstly, to find the size of control valve required to pass 200 kg/h with an upstream pressure of 8 bar and a permissable
pressure drop of 2 bar (downstream pressure = 6 bar)
Find the point at which the curved 8 bar upsteam pressure line intersects a horizontal line drawn from a downstream pressure of 6 bar and
read vertically downwards. It will be seen that a DN15 valve will pass 200 kg/h and is the correct size to choose.
Example 2. A DN50 valve is operating on an upstream pressure of 10 bar and has to pass 3 500 kg/h. It is required to know the downstream
pressure and hence the pressure drop across the valve.
The flowrate 3 500 kg/h is read off the horizontal line at the bottom of the chart giving the capacity of the DN50 valve using the vertical
guide line read upwards from the 3 500 kg/h figure until you strike the curved 10 bar upstream pressure line and from this point read
horizontally to the left to meet the downstream pressure scale. This is at the 7 bar reading and the pressure drop across the DN50 valve
when passing 3 500 kg/h of steam is 3 bar giving a downstream pressure of 7 bar.
Example 3. Finally, if a 10% pressure drop is satisfactory and a valve is required to pass 1 000 kg/h with an upstream pressure of 14 bar find
the point where the 14 bar curved upstream pressure line intersects the 10% pressure drop line. From this point read vertically
downwards and it will be seen that a DN32 valve is the correct size.

Control Valve Selection
for Heating and Cooling Applications
How to select a system
Valve selection:
1. Is the application for heating or cooling?
A heating application will require a valve that is normally open and will close with rising temperature.
A cooling application will require a valve that is normally closed and will open with rising temperature.

2. Is the valve to be used on steam or water applications?


For steam applications use the sizing chart in Table 1 on page 2.
For water heating applications use the chart in Table 2 on page 3.
For water cooling applications use the chart in Table 3 on page 4.
Differential pressure
3. Determine the pressure upstream of the valve (P1) for normal running conditions.

4. Determine the pressure downstream of the valve (P2) for normal running conditions. 4.5.2
5. Determine the required flowrate of the steam or water.

6. Determine the size and basic type of control valve using the sizing charts
in Tables 1, 2 and 3. A sizing example is illustrated for each of these charts
under each of these Tables.

Please note that at this point only the valve size and basic valve type has been
selected. It is now necessary to refer to Tables 4, 5, and 6 to check the following:

7. What body material is required? Pressure temperature limitations for each


material (gunmetal, cast iron and cast carbon steel) are shown in Table 4, P1 P2
page 5. Economics may also influence the choice of body material.

8. What end connections are required - screwed or flanged? Please note: the pressures given on the
Choices are shown in the valve selection Tables 5 and 6 on pages 6 to 9. sizing charts are in bar g only
9. Normally closed valves may have a bleed which allows a small flow to
reach the sensor so that it can react to a temperature rise. This will
depend on the application.

10. What is the maximum differential pressure across the control valve? In a heating application with a normally open valve a rise in
temperature at the sensor will cause the valve to close. In order to ensure that the valve closes fully the sensor must be able to overcome
the force generated on the valve plug by the maximum differential pressure across the control valve (P1 max - P2 min). This is often
substantially greater than the normal running pressure drop across the control valve. Similarly, for a cooling application using a normally
closed valve, the return spring must be able to close the valve against the maximum differential pressure. The maximum differential
pressure for each valve is shown in Tables 5 and 6. The maximum differential pressure of a valve may be increased by incorporating
a balancing bellows, details of which are also indicated in Tables 5 and 6 under the column titled 'Balanced'.

Control system selection


The control system consists of the sensor, capillary tube and actuator. Tables 5 and 6 show which control systems are compatible with
each valve:

11. From Table 7 on page 10, select a temperature range which allows adjustment on both sides of the control point.

12. From Table 7, choose the configuration of the control system to suit the application.

13. From Table 7, choose the length of capillary tube.

14. Choose any ancillaries (pockets, mounting brackets etc.) from Table 8, pages 11 and 12.

How to use the chart


The curved lines labelled 2, 3, 4, 5 etc., represent upstream pressures. Downstream pressures are read along the vertical line on the left
hand side of the chart.
How to use the chart is best described by an example:-
Required, a pressure reducing valve to pass 120 kg /h reducing from 8 to 6 bar. From the downstream pressure of 6 bar on the left
hand side of the chart extend out horizontally until the line meets the curved 8 bar upstream line. At this point read vertically downwards
where it will be seen that a " BRV2 will be required.

How to use the chart


The curved lines labelled 2, 3, 4, 5 etc., represent upstream pressures. Downstream pressures are read along the vertical line on the
left hand side of the chart.
How to use the chart is best described by an example:-
Required, a pressure reducing valve to pass 120 kg /h reducing from 8 to 6 bar. From the downstream pressure of 6 bar on the left
hand side of the chart extend out horizontally until the line meets the curved 8 bar upstream line. At this point read vertically downwards
where it will be seen that a " SRV2S will be required.

side of the chart.

Example
Required, a reducing valve to pass water at the rate of 1.6 litres /sec reducing from 7 bar to 3 bar. From the downstream pressure of 3 bar
on the left hand side of the chart extend out horizontally until the line meets the curved 7 bar upstream line. At the point read vertically
downwards where it will be seen that a " DN20 valve (with a 1.4 - 4.0 bar spring) will be required.

DRV4 and DRV4G


Cast Steel
Pressure Reducing Valves
Description
The DRV4 is a cast steel direct acting bellows sealed pressure reducing valve. The standard version has an EPDM diaphragm and
is suitable for steam, water and air applications. The DRV4 is available with a Nitrile rubber diaphragm (suffix 'N') for oil applications.
A Nitrile rubber soft seated version (suffix 'G', limited to 90 C) is also available for applications that require tight shut-off. It is
recommended that for these applications, a maximum pressure turndown ratio of 10:1 is observed.
Note: To protect the actuator diaphragm on steam applications a WS4 water seal pot must be installed in the downstream pressure
signal line to the actuator. Refer to TI-S12-03 for details.

Available types
DRV4 and DRV4G are available in 6 pressure ranges (suffix 1-6).

Safety information, installation and maintenance


For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions (IM-S12-04)
supplied with the product.

Installation note:
Caution - To protect the actuator diaphragm on steam applications a WS4 C
series water seal pot must be installed in the downstream pressure signal
line to the actuator. Refer to TI-S12-03 for details.
The valve should be mounted vertically downwards in a horizontal pipeline with
the direction of flow as indicated by the arrow on the valve body. For applications
with downstream temperatures below 125 C the valve can alternatively be
mounted vertically upwards.

How to order Type 3 / 3N and 4 / 4N actuator arrangement


Example: 1 off Spirax Sarco DN40 DRV4B3 direct acting pressure reducing
valve flanged PN40.
Note: Add suffix 'N' if the Nitrile rubber diaphragm is required. i.e. DRV4B3N.

DRV7 and DRV7G


SG Iron
Pressure Reducing Valves
Description
The DRV7 is an SG iron direct acting bellows sealed pressure reducing valve. The standard version has an EPDM diaphragm and is
suitable for steam, water and air applications. The DRV7 is available with a Nitrile rubber diaphragm (suffix 'N') for oil applications.
A Nitrile rubber soft seated version (suffix 'G', limited to 90C) is also available for applications that require tight shut-off. It is recommended
that for these applications a maximum pressure turndown ratio of 10:1 is observed.
Note: To protect the actuator diaphragm on steam applications a WS4 water seal pot must be installed in the downstream pressure
signal line to the actuator. Refer to TI-S12-03 for details.
Available types:
DRV7 and DRV7G are available in 6 pressure ranges (suffix 1-6).

Sizing and selection
The required Kv can be calculated from the following formulae,

Where:

= Steam mass flow (kg/h)

= Liquid volume flow (m 3 /h)

= Gas flow at standard conditions: 0C @ 1.013 bar a (m/h)

= Upstream pressure (bar absolute)

= Downstream pressure (bar absolute)

P1 - P 2
= (pressure drop factor)
P1

= Specific gravity

= Absolute average gas temperature (Kelvin = C + 273)

Selecting valve type and nominal diameter


Using the required maximum flowrate and smallest differential pressure P1 - P2 , calculate the required Kv from one of the adjacent
formulae. Select a valve whose Kv value is 30% greater than the calculated K v. The optimum working range of the selected valve should
4.6.39 ideally be within the range of 10 to 70% of its Kv.
You should also note the reduction ratio (inlet pressure P1 divided by outlet pressure P2). If this exceeds the quoted pressure reduction
ratio for the valve being considered the valve will not close.

Sizing and selection for steam applications

The sizing chart below can be used to determine the Kv value of the valve for steam applications by
plotting:
- Upstream pressure.
- Maximum valve pressure drop.
- Maximum steam load.
Where the Kv value is known, the chart can be used to determine pressure drop across the valve for
any given flowrate.

Kv sizing example:
Maximum flowrate 1 500 kg/h
Upstream pressure 9 bar g (10 abs)
Maximum pressure drop 0.5 bar
Draw a horizontal line A - B at 10 abs.

Sizing and selection for water applications

The sizing chart below can be used to determine the Kv value of the valve for water applications by plotting:
- Maximum flowrate.
- Maximum valve pressure drop.

Where the Kv value is known, the chart can be used to determine pressure drop across the valve for any
given flowrate.

Kv sizing example:
Maximum flowrate 10 m 3/h.
Maximum allowable pressure drop 0.3 bar.

Draw a horizontal line A - B at 10 m 3/h.


Draw a vertical line C - D at 0.3 bar pressure drop.
At intersection E, read the required Kv = 19.
Valve size required DN40 having the next highest Kv of 24.

Safety information, installation and maintenance


For full details see IM-S12-10 supplied with the product.
Installation note:
Caution: To protect the actuator diaphragm on steam applications a WS4 series water seal pot must be installed in the upstream
pressure signal line to the actuator, refer to TI-S12-03 for details.
The valve should be mounted vertically downwards in a horizontal pipeline with the direction of flow as indicated by the arrow on the valve body.
For applications with upstream temperatures below 125C the valve can alternatively be mounted vertically upwards.

How to order
Example: 1 off Spirax Sarco DN40 DEP7B3 direct acting pressure reducing valve having flanged PN25 connections.
Note: Add suffix 'N' if the Nitrile rubber diaphragm is required. i.e. DEP7B3N.

Sizing and selection for steam applications

The sizing chart below can be used to determine the Kv value of the valve for steam applications by plotting:
- Upstream pressure.
- Maximum valve pressure drop.
- Maximum steam load.
Where the Kv value is known, the chart can be used to determine pressure drop across the valve for any
given flowrate.

Kv sizing example:
Maximum flowrate 1 500 kg/h
Upstream pressure 9 bar g (10 abs)
Maximum pressure drop 0.5 bar
Draw a horizontal line A - B at 10 abs.
At intersection with 0.5 pressure drop draw a vertical line C - D.
Draw a vertical line E - F at 1 500 kg/h.
At intersection G, read the required Kv = 28.
Valve size required DN50 having the next highest Kv of 40.

Sizing and selection for water applications

The sizing chart below can be used to determine the Kv value of the valve for water applications by plotting:
- Maximum flowrate.
- Maximum valve pressure drop.

Where the Kv value is known, the chart can be used to determine pressure drop across the valve for any
given flowrate.

Kv sizing example:
Maximum flowrate 10 m 3/h.
Maximum allowable pressure drop 0.3 bar.

Draw a horizontal line A - B at 10 m 3/h.


Draw a vertical line C - D at 0.3 bar pressure drop.
At intersection E, read the required Kv = 19.
Valve size required DN40 having the next highest Kv of 24.

Safety information, installation and maintenance
For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions (IM-S12-10) supplied with the product.

Installation note:
Caution - To protect the actuator diaphragm on steam applications a WS4 series water seal pot must be installed in the upstream
pressure signal line to the actuator. Refer to TI-S12-03 for details.
The valve should be mounted vertically downwards in a horizontal pipeline with the direction of flow as indicated by the arrow on the
valve body. For applications with downstream temperatures below 125C the valve can alternatively be mounted vertically upwards.

How to order
Example: 1 off Spirax Sarco DN40 DEP4B3 direct acting excess pressure valve having flanged PN40 connections.
Note: Add suffix 'N' if the Nitrile rubber diaphragm is required. i.e. DEP4B3N.

Note
The capacities quoted above are based on valves fitted with an external pressure sensing pipe. Reliance on the internal balance pipe
will mean that capacities may be reduced. In the case of low downstream pressure this reduction could be up to 30% of the valve
capacity.

How to use the chart


Saturated steam
A valve is required to pass 600 kg/h reducing from 6 bar to 4 bar. Find the point at which the curved 6 bar upstream pressure line
crosses the horizontal 4 bar downstream pressure line. A perpendicular dropped from this point gives the capacities of all DP sizes
under these conditions. A DN32 valve, is the smallest size which will carry the required load.

Superheated steam
Because of the higher specific volume of superheated steam a correction factor must be applied to the figure obtained from the chart
above. For 55 C of superheat the factor is 0.95 and for 100 C of superheat the factor is 0.9.
Using the example given for saturated steam, the DN32 valve would pass 740 x 0.95 = 703 kg/h if the steam had 55 C of superheat.
It is still big enough to pass the required load of 600 kg/h.

How to use the chart


Capacities are given in cubic decimetres of free air per second (dm 3 /s). The use of the capacity chart can be best explained by an
example. Required, a valve to pass 100 dm 3 /s of free air reducing from 12 bar to 8 bar.
Find the point at which the curved 12 bar upstream pressure line crosses the horizontal 8 bar downstream pressure line. A perpendicular
dropped from this point shows that whereas a DN15LC valve will only pass 57 dm 3 /s and is therefore not large enough, a DN15 valve
will pass approximately 120 dm 3 /s under these conditions and is the correct valve size to choose.

Safety information, installation and maintenance


For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions (IM-P006-07) supplied with the product.

Installation note:
The valve should be installed in a horizontal pipeline with the direction of flow as indicated by the arrow on the valve body.

How to order spares


Always order spares by using the description given in the column headed 'Available spares' and state the size and type of pressure
reducing valve.
Example: 1 - Main valve assembly for a Spirax Sarco DN15 DP143 pressure reducing valve.
How to fit. See the Installation and Maintenance Instructions supplied with the pressure reducing valve. Further copies are available
on request.

Interchangeability of spares
The following table shows how in certain sizes some parts are interchangeable. For example in the line headed 'Main diaphragm' the
diaphragm used in the following sizes: DN15LC, DN15 and DN20 is common to these sizes by the letter 'a'. The letter 'b' indicates that
sizes DN25 and DN32 use one common diaphragm.
Some parts, particularly pilot and main valve assemblies are specific to particular models e.g. DP143G Interchangeability is therefore
restricted to model type for some parts.
Please note for storage purposes: The spare parts marked are not the same material as those for the DP163, consequently they
may not be compatible for interchangeability.

Note
The capacities quoted above are based on valves fitted with an external pressure sensing pipe. Reliance on the internal balance pipe
will mean that capacities may be reduced. In the case of low downstream pressure this reduction could be up to 30% of the valve
capacity.

How to use the chart


Saturated steam
A valve is required to pass 600 kg/h reducing from 6 bar to 4 bar. Find the point at which the curved 6 bar upstream pressure line
crosses the horizontal 4 bar downstream pressure line. A perpendicular dropped from this point gives the capacities of all DP sizes
under these conditions. A DN32 valve, is the smallest size which will carry the required load.
Superheated steam
Because of the higher specific volume of superheated steam a correction factor must be applied to the figure obtained from the chart
above. For 55C of superheat the factor is 0.95 and for 100C of superheat the factor is 0.9.
Using the example given for saturated steam, the DN32 valve would pass 740 x 0.95 = 703 kg/h if the steam had 55C of superheat.
It is still big enough to pass the required load of 600 kg/h.

How to use the chart


Capacities are given in cubic decimetres of free air per second (dm 3 /s). The use of the capacity chart can be best explained by an example.
Required, a valve to pass 100 dm 3 /s of free air reducing from 12 bar to 8 bar.
Find the point at which the curved 12 bar upstream pressure line crosses the horizontal 8 bar downstream pressure line. A perpendicular
dropped from this point shows that whereas a DN15LC valve will only pass 57 dm 3 /s and is therefore not large enough, a DN15 valve will
pass approximately 120 dm 3 /s under these conditions and is the correct valve size to choose.

Safety information, installation and maintenance


For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions (IM-P006-07) supplied with the product.
Installation note:
The valve should be installed in a horizontal pipeline with the direction of flow as indicated by the arrow on the valve body.

How to order

How to order spares


Always order spares by using the description given in the column headed 'Available spares' and state the size and type of pressure
reducing valve.
Example: 1 - Main valve assembly for a Spirax Sarco DN15 DP163 pressure reducing valve.
How to fit - See the Installation and Maintenance Instructions supplied with the pressure reducing valve. Further copies are available
on request.

Interchangeability of spares
The following table shows how in certain sizes some parts are interchangeable. For example in the line headed 'Main diaphragm' the
diaphragm used in the following sizes: DN15LC, DN15 and DN20 is common to these sizes by the letter 'a'. The letter 'b' indicates that sizes
DN25 and DN32 use one common diaphragm.
Some parts, particularly pilot and main valve assemblies are specific to particular models e.g 'DP163G'. Interchangeability is therefore
restricted to model type for some parts.
Please note for storage purposes: The spare parts marked are not of the same material as those for the DP143, consequently they
are not compatible for interchangeability.

DP27T and DP27TE


Pilot Operated Pressure /
Temperature Control Valves with SG Iron Bodies
Description
The DP27T and DP27TE are combined pressure / temperature
control valves for use on steam applications. They are DP27T shown
designed to be used in conjunction with a 2 m length of
capillary which is available separately (other lengths are
available on request - see 'Optional extras', page 4). They
combine a temperature and pressure pilot valve in one unit.
This controls the main valve so that the temperature is
maintained while the maximum steam pressure is limited.
A variable rate conical pressure adjustment spring is fitted
providing a downstream pressure range of 0.2 - 17 bar g.
Notes:

4.6.94
1. The valve can be supplied with a blank undrilled flange
if required.

2. The sensor of the control system will need to be mounted

Note
The capacities quoted above are based on valves fitted with an external pressure sensing pipe. Reliance on the internal balance pipe
will mean that capacities may be reduced. In the case of low downstream pressure this reduction could be up to 30% of the valve capacity.

How to use the chart


Saturated steam
A valve is required to pass 600 kg/h reducing from 6 bar to 4 bar. Find the point at which the curved 6 bar upstream pressure line crosses
the horizontal 4 bar downstream pressure line. A perpendicular dropped from this point gives the capacities of all DP sizes under these
conditions. A DN32 valve, is the smallest size which will carry the required load.

Superheated steam
Because of the higher specific volume of superheated steam a correction factor must be applied to the figure obtained from the chart
above. For 55 C of superheat the factor is 0.95 and for 100 C of superheat the factor is 0.9.
Using the example given for saturated steam, the DN32 valve would pass 740 x 0.95 = 703 kg/h if the steam had 55 C of superheat.
It is still big enough to pass the required load of 600 kg/h.

How to use the chart


Capacities are given in cubic decimetres of free air per second (dm3/s). The use of the capacity chart can be best explained by an example.
Required, a valve to pass 100 dm3/s of free air reducing from 12 bar to 8 bar.
Find the point at which the curved 12 bar upstream pressure line crosses the horizontal 8 bar downstream pressure line. A perpendicular
dropped from this point shows that whereas a DN15LC valve will only pass 57 dm3/s and is therefore not large enough, a DN15 valve will
pass approximately 120 dm3/s under these conditions and is the correct valve size to choose.

Safety information, installation and maintenance


For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions (IM-P470-09) supplied with the product.

Installation note:
The valve should be installed in a horizontal pipeline with the direction of flow as indicated by the arrow on the valve body.

Interchangeability of spares
The following table shows how in certain sizes some parts are interchangeable. For example in the line headed 'Main diaphragm' the
diaphragm used in the screwed valves " and " is common to these sizes by the letter 'a', the letter 'c' indicates that one diaphragm is
common to the DN40 and DN50 valves. Spares which are marked are interchangeable with the DP17 and DP27 pressure reducing
valves. Spares marked 'o' are interchangeable with the 37D temperature control valve.

Note
The capacities quoted above are based on valves fitted with an external pressure sensing pipe. Reliance on the internal pressure sensing
pipe will mean that capacities may be reduced. In the case of low downstream pressure this reduction could be up to 30% of the valve
capacity.

How to use the chart


Saturated steam
A valve is required to pass 600 kg/h reducing from 6 bar to 4 bar. Find the point at which the curved 6 bar upstream pressure line
crosses the horizontal 4 bar downstream pressure line. A perpendicular dropped from this point gives the capacities of all DP sizes
under these conditions. A DN32 valve, is the smallest size which will carry the required load.

Superheated steam
Because of the higher specific volume of superheated steam a correction factor must be applied to the figure obtained from the chart
above. For 55 C of superheat the factor is 0.95 and for 100 C of superheat the factor is 0.9.
Using the example given for saturated steam, the DN32 valve would pass 740 x 0.95 = 703 kg/h if the steam had 55 C of superheat.
It is still big enough to pass the required load of 600 kg/h.

How to use the chart


Capacities are given in cubic decimetres of free air per second (dm3/s). The use of the capacity chart can be best explained by an example.
Required, a valve to pass 100 dm3/s of free air reducing from 12 bar to 8 bar.
Find the point at which the curved 12 bar upstream pressure line crosses the horizontal 8 bar downstream pressure line. A perpendicular
dropped from this point shows that whereas a DN15LC valve will only pass 57 dm3/s and is therefore not large enough, a DN15 valve will
pass approximately 120 dm3/s under these conditions and is the correct valve size to choose.

Safety information, installation and maintenance


For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions (IM-P100-05 for the DP27G and DP27GY, or IM-P470-03 for the DP27E,
DP27R and DP27Y) supplied with the product.

Installation note:

Description
The SVL606 is a stainless steel, full lift TV approved anged safety
valve suitable for use with steam, gas and liquids. 9
Available types
Two main variations of the valve are available:
SVL606-B with a sealed cap for liquid service. 11
SVL606-C with a packed easing lever for steam (or other services
where a lever is specied).
Note: Both designs have closed bonnets.
Applications 8
The SVL606 is suitable for the overpressure protection of steam
boilers, pipelines, pressure vessels and most general process
industry applications, particularly where a valve of all stainless steel
construction is required to minimise contamination of the process
media or where hygienic considerations and aesthetic qualities are
prerequisites. This valve is also suitable for cryogenic service. 4.7.26
Standards and approvals 7
Approved by the TV to AD Merkblatt A2, TRD 421.
The requirements of the European Pressure Equipment
Directive, 97/23/EC have been satised and the valve belongs to
Category 4, having been designed for use with uids in Group 1
and 2 (gases and liquids). Always consult Spirax Sarco for uid 5
compatibility.

Formulas:
For steam service: For organic fluid vaporizers - lb / h:

Where:
A = Required orifice area in square inches

P = Relieving pressure in pounds per square inch absolute = set pressure (psi g) + overpressure + 14.7 where the overpressure is
3% or 2 psi, whichever is the greater. P = 1.03 x set pressure + 14.7 or P = set pressure + 2 psi + 14.7.

T = Inlet temperature, F. Absolute (F plus 460).

s = Required steam capacity in pounds per hour.

= Required vapor capacity in pounds per hour.

Kd = Coefficient of discharge, 0.955 for steam, air and vapour service.

Ksh = Steam superheat correction factor. See Table 1 below.

M = Average molecular weight of vapour. See Table 3, page 5.

C = Gas or vapour flow constant. See Table 2, page 5.

Z = Compressibility factor corresponding to T and P. If this factor is not available, compressibility correction can be safely ignored using
a value of Z = 1.0.

Direct Contact Desuperheaters

Description
Spirax Sarco direct contact desuperheaters reduce the temperature of superheated steam to produce steam temperatures approaching
saturation temperature. To cool the superheated steam, water is entrained and flashed into vapour by absorbing heat from the steam.

Typical applications:
- To reduce the temperature of steam
discharged from turbine by-pass systems
on power plants for heat exchangers, dump
stations etc.
- To improve heat transfer of indirect contact
heat exchangers - shell and tube , plate

4.8.2
type, reactor heating jackets etc.
- To reduce the temperature of steam on
direct contact applications - food cooking
kettles, in-line steam heaters, tobacco
drying plant and paper mills.

Sizing and selection
There are a number of factors which must be considered in determining the best type of desuperheater for each application. Such
factors are:-
1. Residual superheat.
2. Turndown.
3. Accuracy of final temperature.
4. Available pressure drop.
5. Cooling water pressure.
6. Auxiliary higher pressure steam available for atomising.
7. Cost.
With so many factors, it is not an easy task to develop a decision tree to aid selection, but the charts below have been developed to
assist engineers in desuperheater selection.

Safety information, installation and maintenance
For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instruction that are supplied with the product.

Installation note
Desuperheaters may be installed either horizontally or vertically with the steam flowing upwards.
Spirax Sarco strongly advises against installations in which the steam flow is vertically downwards.

In the case of a horizontal installation the cooling water connection (and the atomising steam connection on a steam atomising
desuperheater) should ideally point downwards, as this gives the best orientation for drainage of fluids in a shutdown situation. Other
orientations are acceptable for satisfactory operation, but drainage is not as effective.

In a vertical installation we recommend that, the cooling water pipework (and atomising steam pipework, if applicable) should be brought
to the Desuperheater from below the corresponding connections on the desuperheater. This will provide the best layout for drainage
of fluids on shutdown.

Desuperheater overview
In typical process plants, process steam is usually superheated,
or heated to a temperature above saturation. The difference
between the saturation temperature and the actual temperature
of the steam is called 'superheat'.

Desuperheated steam is more efficient in the transfer of thermal


energy, consequently desuperheaters are used to bring the outlet
degree of superheat closer to that of saturation.

Desuperheaters reduce the temperature of superheated process


steam by introducing finely atomized cooling water droplets into
the steam flow. As the droplets evaporate, sensible heat from
the superheated steam is conver ted into latent heat of
4.8.12
vaporization.

A typical desuperheater installation is shown below:

Desuperheaters
Desuperheater selection
There are various types of desuperheater available so evaluation of the process duty is crucial to ensure selection of the right equipment.
Turndown capability, pressure drop and outlet superheat play lead roles in desuperheater design and selection:

Turndown: (Maximum steam flowrate Minimum steam flowrate)


Turndown represents the variability of the steam flowrate. For many processes, turndown is very small or fixed. Generally, the higher
the turndown, the more complicated the Desuperheater design.

Outlet superheat:
Although desuperheaters are capable of desuperheating to the saturation temperature of the steam, typically, desuperheaters
are designed to produce steam temperatures at 3C to 5C above saturation. This is because it becomes increasingly difficult to control
the process (and there is very little advantage) at lower temperatures.

Steam pressure drop (for venturi type desuperheaters):


For most pressure systems, a 0.4 to 0.7 bar g drop is considered reasonable. It should be noted that as the required turndown increases,
so does the pressure drop. This is because there is a minimum acceptable pressure drop at the minimum flowrate case that ensures
sufficient velocity to atomise the water droplets. Therefore, as the maximum steam flowrate increases, so does the velocity and hence
the maximum pressure drop.

Water pressure drop (for spray type desuperheaters):


It should be noted that as the required turndown increases, the required cooling water pressure also increases.

General 'Rule-of-thumb':
Over-specifying the thermal load or process requirements is detrimental to efficient operation and will increase the cost
of the desuperheater (and its controls). Under specifying the operating range can result in a unit that cannot handle all
operating cases.

4.8.13 Each type of Spirax Sarco desuperheater, employs a different method to create water droplets. The process by which the water droplets
are created is usually referred to as 'atomisation'.

It must be remembered that the evaporation of the water droplets (and hence cooling of the steam) is a time dependent process and
does not occur instantaneously. Consequently, most of the desuperheating does not occur in the desuperheater itself, but in the pipework
immediately downstream. Thus, the design of the downstream pipework is a crucial factor in a successful desuperheater installation.

It is important that the water droplets remain suspended in the downstream pipework for as long as possible. To ensure this, it is
necessary to maintain sufficient turbulence in the downstream piping by keeping the velocity relatively high higher than is usually
encountered in steam distribution systems (up to 60 m/s). This is the reason why desuperheaters and their associated pipework are
often (not always) smaller than the distribution system in which they are being installed.

Desuperheaters
Types of desuperheater
From the foregoing paragraphs, it is easy to understand why there has to be a period of good contact between the droplets of cooling
water the superheated steam. If good contact is lost, the water can no longer absorb heat effectively from the steam, evaporation stops
and the desuperheating process comes to a halt.

When the steam velocity is too low, 'water droplet fall-out' occurs and a pool of water is formed which runs along the bottom of pipe.
At this point good contact between cooling water and the steam is lost and effective desuperheating will not occur. By following the
guidelines presented in this document or using the Spirax Sarco online sizing software, problems due to droplet fall-out can be avoided.

There are three basic types of Spirax Sarco desuperheater (shown below) which all use a different method to atomise the cooling water
droplets. Each one has its own merits and the desuperheater selection chart shown on the following page determines which type should
be selected.

Other considerations
Desuperheater orientation
Desuperheaters may be installed either horizontally or vertically (with the steam flowing upwards). In a vertical installation, increased
turndown can be achieved; as the steam and water are countered by gravity, the water is less likely to fall out of suspension. Spirax
Sarco strongly advises against installations in which the steam flow is vertically downwards, as the opposite would occur.

In the case of a horizontal installation the cooling water connection (and the atomising steam connection on a SAD (steam atomising
desuperheater) should ideally point downwards, as this gives the best orientation for drainage of fluids in a shutdown situation. Other
orientations are acceptable for satisfactory operation, but drainage is not as effective.

In a vertical installation we recommend that, the cooling water pipework (and atomising steam pipework, if applicable) should be brought
to the desuperheater from below the corresponding connections on the desuperheater. This will provide the best layout for drainage of
fluids on shutdown.

Other considerations (continued)

Cooling water supply


Typical cooling water supply options are as follows:
- Boiler feedwater (BFW) (taken from the pressure side of the boiler feedpump).
- Demineralised water.
- De-ionised water.
- Condensate.
Towns water or process water may also be used, but depending on hardness, salts may be deposited on the inside of downstream
pipework and the face of valve seats and plugs.

Cooling water quality


The quality of the injected water is important. The TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) of the injection water should be as low as possible
since all these solids will come out of solution and be deposited on the faces of valves and could block up the small orifices in the
desuperheater nozzles.

Cooling water temperature


Generally, the hotter the better. This is because hot droplets need to absorb less heat to reach their flash temperature than cold ones.
Hence, hot droplets will evaporate more quickly, producing a more efficient desuperheating process. Using hot water also has the
additional advantage that smaller amounts of water will fall onto the inside walls of the pipework.

Because of the benefits of using hot water, it is logical to insulate the water supply pipes to minimise heat loss.

Cooling water pressure and flowrate


In order to inject the cooling water, its pressure at the desuperheater nozzle must be equal to or greater than the operating steam
pressure in the pipe. The requirement varies from one type of desuperheater to another, but typical minimum values are:

- Spray type desuperheater steam pressure + 0.5 bar


4.8.17 - Venturi type desuperheater steam pressure + 0.1 bar

- Steam atomising type desuperheater equal to steam pressure

For the spray and Venturi type desuperheaters, the highest water inlet pressure required will be at the highest cooling water flowrate.

It should be noted that the water flowrate is a function of the square of the pressure difference between cooling water and the steam.
So if the water flowrate is to be increased by a factor of 4 for example, then the pressure difference must increase by a factor of 4 2 =
16. This is the reason why it is important not to over-specify the turndown as high cooling water pressures are quickly reached (especially
with spray type desuperheaters).

If an independent or booster pump is used, a spill-back will be required to ensure that there is always flow through the pump.

Cooling water control valve


A pressure drop will be required over the water control valve. We have already said that ideally the water should be as hot as possible
so care is needed to ensure that flashing conditions do not exist across the control valve.

Superheated steam pressure control


It is desirable that a constant steam supply pressure be maintained.

The temperature of the steam after the desuperheater controls the amount of water added. The higher the temperature, the more the
control valve will open and the greater the amount of water that is added. Usually the target is to reduce the steam temperature to within
a small margin of saturation temperature. In virtually all applications the upstream pressure will be controlled and constant, however,
if the superheated steam supply pressure is increased, the saturation temperature will also increase. The set value on the Controller
will not change, and an excessive amount of water will be added as the control system tries to achieve the set temperature. This would
result in very wet saturated steam with its attendant problems.

Control
In this document we have frequently used the term 'turndown' to describe the performance of the different types of desuperheater.
However, as far as an installation is concerned, it should remembered that the desuperheater is only one element of a desuperheating
station. Obviously, if the controls that are fitted have lower turndown than the desuperheater, then the turndown of the desuperheater
station will be reduced.

For example, in a particular pressure reducing / desuperheating station, the rangability of the cooling water valve may not be as high
as the desuperheater. In this case it will be the rangability of the water control valve that limits the turndown of the desuperheating
station.

Separator station
In applications where there must be no moisture present in the resulting steam (such as prior to a turbine for example) it is recommended
that a separator is installed downstream of the desuperheater. This will protect downstream pipework and equipment from the effects
of moisture in the event of a control system failure or abnormal operating conditions, for example at start-up.

The separator must be located after the temperature sensor thereby giving the water droplets as much time as possible to evaporate.

Page 6 of 12 TI-P475-06 CH Issue 3


Control valves
Desuperheaters
Strainer
Spirax Sarco recommend that a strainer is incorporated in the cooling water supply line to protect both the cooling water control valve
and the small bores within the desuperheater from becoming blocked.

Isolation valves
To allow maintenance to be safely carried out, isolation valves are recommended upstream of:

- The superheated steam pressure control valve.

- The cooling water control valve.

Safety valve
In applications involving simultaneous pressure reduction, a safety relief valve may be needed to protect both the desuperheater and
downstream equipment from the effects of:

- Excess pressure in the event of pressure control system failure.

- Excess temperature in the event of temperature control system failure.

It is essential that the desuperheater and downstream equipment are suitable for the maximum temperature of the superheated steam.
This is to protect these items in the event of a failure of both the pressure and temperature control systems.

Recycle loop
For SAD steam atomising desuperheaters with a very high turndown a 'catchpot and recycle loop' are often installed as shown on the
diagram below. The recycled condensate is hot which leads to faster absorption.

The desuperheater generates a small suction effect to draw the recycle water back to the desuperheater ensuring that the water doesnt
'by-pass' the desuperheater.

As the turndown required equals 5:1 and the application
involves simultaneous pressure reduction, this would
seem to be a good application for a venturi type
desuperheater (VTD). Please note that a steam atomising
desuperheater (SAD) could also be used for this duty, but
the overall installation cost would be higher due to the
greater complexity of the installation.

As already stated, it is not possible to control at the


saturated temperature of the steam so any associated 1
temperature controller should have a set point of 3 C
above the saturation temperature (which is 136.7C in this
example).

Rev Description By Date Checked Date

A Spirax Sarco Size 6 venturi type desuperheater has been selected. It can be seen from the 'Cooling Medium' section that the maximum
cooling water pressure required is 5.34 bar g consequently a water booster pump should also be installed (as the cooling water is only
available at 5 bar g.

The program has calculated a steam pressure drop across the desuperheater of 0.302 bar g (maximum). As there is a pressure reducing
valve installed, the program has automatically added this pressure drop to the desuperheater inlet pressure to 'compensate' for the
pressure drop. This will ensure that the outlet pressure from the desuperheater is 2 bar g. The datasheet therefore shows the correct
pressures and flowrates for sizing both the pressure reducing valve and the water control valve.

VAD
Variable Area Desuperheaters
Desuperheater overview
Steam used in process plants can be superheated, that is, heated to a temperature above
saturation. The excess of temperature above its saturation is called 'superheat'.
Desuperheated steam is more efficient in the transfer of thermal energy, consequently
desuperheaters are used to bring the outlet steam temperature closer to that of saturation
for the steam pressure.
Desuperheaters reduce the temperature of superheated process steam by introducing
finely atomised cooling water droplets into the steam flow. As the droplets evaporate,
sensible heat from the superheated steam is converted into latent heat of vaporisation.
As standard the VAD is supplied with an actuator. The following optional extras can
be supplied if requested when placing an order: Positioner, Regulator and Limit switch.

A typical desuperheater installation is shown below:

Safety information, installation and maintainance
For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions that are supplied with the product.

Installation note:
Desuperheaters may be installed either horizontally or vertically with the steam flowing upwards.
Spirax Sarco strongly advises against installations in which the steam flow is vertically downwards.
In the case of a horizontal installation the cooling water connection should ideally point downstream, as this gives the best orientation
for drainage of fluids in a shutdown situation. Other orientations are acceptable for satisfactory operation, but drainage is not as effective.
In a vertical installation we recommend that, the cooling water pipework should be brought to the desuperheater from below the
corresponding connections on the desuperheater. This will provide the best layout for drainage of fluids on shutdown.
The VAD must be sited in location on the pipeline that offers a stable flow - An unstable flow will affect the mixing efficiency of the VAD.

A typical installation illustrating a VAD variable area desuperheater in conjunction with a PN9000 series actuator

The temperature sensor should be located a minimum distance of calculated on the sizing sheet (and typically more them 12m) after
the VAD, however for optimum temperature control it is recommended that it be installed at the point of use.
A minimum length of 5 metres should be present before a pipe elbow. A thermal sleeve is recommended to protect the elbow from
4.8.29 corrosion and erosion.
The steam pipeline should be of at least DN150. At steam line sizes up to and including 20" NB, we recommend the thermal sleeve is
manufactured from pipe which is one size smaller than the steam line. Above 20" NB steam line size, we recommend the thermal sleeve
is two sizes smaller.
Pipe size should ensure a minimum 5m/s velocity in each flowrate, in case of lower value please contact Spirax Sarco
Water must be supplied with more than 3 bar differential pressure to the steam.

Disposal
The product is recyclable. No ecological hazard is anticipated with disposal of this product, providing due care is taken.

The location of the VAD in the pipeline must be such that it offers a stabilised flow. Unstabilised flow will affect the mixing efficiency.

The VAD must be sited in location on the pipeline that offers a stable flow - Unstabilised flow will affect the mixing efficiency.

Potentiometer transmitter characteristics


A potentiometer is placed in the vertical weather-proof tube
outside the level indicator.
The total resistance of a known value is measured at the ends of
this potentiometer.
The float, following the liquid level trend, activates the potentiometers
reed contact chain through its own magnetic field, locally closing
the signal.
The total value of the resistance is measured 100% at its maximum
level and 0% at its minimum level.
The end poles of the potentiometer are connected to a converter
that transforms the input value into Ohm and the output into mA.

R1C
Steam Trap Failure Monitor
Description
The R1C steam trap failure monitor will monitor the performance of a single steam trap when used in conjunction with a Spiratec sensor
chamber and sensor or a steam trap with integral sensor. It will indicate whether a trap is operating correctly, passing live steam or has failed
closed by means of coloured trap status lights on the unit. Analogue and digital outputs allow it to be connected directly to BEMS / EMS to
indicate steam trap status remotely.
System components
To detect a steam trap that is leaking steam, a standard SS1 Spiratec sensor is installed in a sensor chamber or steam trap. To detect a steam
trap that is leaking steam or is waterlogged, a WLS1 Spiratec waterlogging sensor assembly is installed in a sensor chamber or steam trap.
R1C system installation
The R1C must be installed in a steel conduit system within 10 m of the Spiratec sensor.
Connections
The R1C enclosure is a circular conduit box with M20 threaded entry holes. To maintain resistance to moisture, use a suitable cable gland
between the R1C and the Spiratec sensor (Type SS1 or WLS1). If the cable to the BEMS / EMS passes through a conduit, make sure that the
threaded connection to the R1C is water-tight to maintain the IP65 enclosure rating. Details of electrical connection are supplied with the product.

Trap Failure Indicators
Description
The Spiratec Type 30 and Type 40 trap failure indicators are used
for the detection of steam leaks through steam traps.
They are used with:
- a sensor chamber and sensor, installed immediately upstream
of a steam trap.
- a steam trap with a built-in sensor.
A remote test point (Spirax Sarco R1 or R12) can be used where
access to the trap or chamber is difficult.
Three versions of the indicator are available:
Spiratec Type 30
Spiratec Type 30 UL approved (described in separate literature)
Spiratec Type 40
The Type 40 is similar to the Type 30, but the Type 40 has
an electronic filter to give a steady response where fluctuating
pipeline conditions may cause a less stable signal.
Type 30 and Type 40 indicators are battery powered, and
are connected to the sensor using the 1.25 m cable provided.

5.1.12
The trap status is indicated with red and / or green LEDs. A test
circuit indicates low battery or a faulty unit.

R16C
Automatic Steam Trap Monitor
Description
The Spiratec R16C is an automatic steam trap monitor for up to 16
steam traps. Remotely mounted, it continuously scans electronically
up to 16 Spiratec sensors and indicates when steam wastage or
waterlogging occurs at any of the traps being monitored.
A sensor is screwed into each sensor chamber or steam trap and
is connected by wiring to the R16C which is sited at a convenient
point.
When all the steam traps being monitored are working correctly a
single green light will be illuminated. If one or more of the steam
traps is failing, then the corresponding 'fail' lights (of which there are
thirty two) are illuminated and the green light is extinguished.
The R16C, which operates continuously, will indicate that either all
the traps are operating correctly, or that there is a failure of any
particular identified trap or traps. The unit can be interfaced with
most computer controlled Building Management Systems, through
a pair of volt free contacts, which will open on trap failure.

STAPS Wireless Steam Trap Monitoring System


Steam traps
Steam trap management
How does it work?
A head unit assembly mounted on the pipe upstream of the trap to be monitored 'listens' to the sound signature of the trap in operation.
This sound signature is categorised and transmitted via 2.4 GHz wireless network to a central PC. The PC determines the trap condition
and calculates any steam loss.

Each STAPS head unit assembly is powered by a long life Lithium battery (typical battery life of over 3 years). It can communicate
directly to a receiver that is connected to the PC software via a LAN connection or via another intelligent head or repeater. The PC
software can be installed onto a PC on the sites internal network, or onto a standalone local PC.

The STAPS head, repeater and receiver create a network and can communicate with each other, passing on the steam trap data to the
supervisory PC. The illustration below illustrates a typical network.

Description
The Spirax Sarco BT6-B sanitary balanced pressure thermostatic steam trap is designed to remove condensate from clean and
pure steam applications with minimal condensate retention. Applications include sterile steam barriers, block and bleed installations,
mains drainage and CIP / SIP of vessels and reactors and process lines. Manufactured in 316L, the crevice free body design of the
BT6-B incorporates a 15 angled seat to ensure full drainability. The standard element is extremely sensitive to changes in
condensate temperature and is designed to open with a minimum of sub-cooling, less than 2 C from steam saturation temperature
at pressures below 2.5 bar g for typical operating conditions. Exact operating performance may be affected by operating pressure,
installation and ambient conditions. Each trap is individually packaged within a 'clean' environment with protective end caps and
sealed in a protective plastic bag.
Available types
BT6-BL Low capacity and BT6-BH High capacity

Body surface finish (measured to ISO 4287-1997 and ISO 4288-1997):

- Internal surfaces have a finish of 0.6 m (25 micro-inch Ra, ASME BPE SFV2).

- External surfaces have a finish of 1.0 m (40 micro-inch Ra).

Options:

- Mechanical and electropolishing to 0.375 m (15 micro-inch Ra,ASME BPE SFV4).

- For applications requiring closer to steam saturation temperatures, for example, critical SIP applications, please consult
Spirax Sarco.

Standard
The BT6-B has been designed and built in general accordance to ASME BPE and complies with the requirements of the European
Pressure Equipment Directive 2014/68/EU. All seals comply with FDA CFR title 21, part 177, section 1550 and USP class VI

Safety information, installation and maintenance


For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions (IM-P180-31) supplied with the product.
Installation note
The BT6-B is designed to be installed in vertical lines with the flow downwards so that the body is self-draining. Check the flow arrow
on the body for correct orientation. Fittings and pipe clamps are not supplied.
5.2.18
Installation should include a suitable cooling leg to avoid condensate back-up into process equipment under normal operating
conditions.
Do not expose the capsule element to superheat conditions. Handle all components carefully to avoid damage to surfaces.

Operation
The operation relies on a stainless steel capsule that is filled with a temperature sensing fluid. During cold or start-up conditions the
capsule will be fully open allowing large volumes of air, condensate and / or CIP fluid to be drained. As the system approaches steam
temperature the fluid in the capsule expands and the valve closes the trap to prevent live steam loss. This closure occurs very close
to steam temperature to ensure efficient drainage of the system.

How to order
Example: 1 off Spirax Sarco " BT6-BH sanitary balanced pressure thermostatic steam trap with self-draining body. Connections to
be sanitary clamp ends to meet the requirements of ASME BPE. Suitable for pressure up to 6 bar g. Internal surface finish to be
electropolished to 0.375 m (15 micro-inch Ra, ASME BPE SFV4). Material certification to EN 10204 3.1 for pressure containing parts.

To work out the appropriate bimetallic pilot valve and seat size Pilot valve assembly N type 10, 11, 12, 15, 21
for your application, follow the sizing procedure listed below:
1. The trap inlet pressure must be known: Pilot valve assembly E type 10, 11, 12, 15, 21

2. The outlet pressure must be known to determine the differential
pressure across the trap.
Always order spares by using the description given in the column

Sizing example:
1. If the trap inlet pressure is 10 bar g - select E type pilot valve.
2. If the outlet pressure is 6 bar g then: 10 bar g (inlet pressure) 16
- 6 bar g (outlet pressure) means 4 bar g differential pressure exists.
3. If the trap is required to drain 25 000 kg / h then select either an
SP80E or SP100E with a 46 mm seat, as this is closest to 15
the mid-range capacity for a 46 mm seat. Although the capacity 14 11

to handle very high condensate loads up to differential pressures of
4 bar. An integral float trap mechanism provides a variable capacity
in addition to the orifce. Minimum flowrates are required to avoid
blowthrough and these depend on the orifice selected A, B, C or D.
The FT12 is manufactured in cast iron with DN150 (6") flanged
connections. It is designed specifically for the sugar industry, which
has inherently low pressure, high load steam systems.

Capacities shown above are based on condensate at saturation temperature. When discharging sub-cooled condensate the air vent provides
extra capacity. Under start-up conditions when the condensate is cold the internal thermostatic air vent will be open and provides additional
capacity to the main valve. On 4.5 bar units this will provide a minimum of 50% increased capacity above the hot condensate figures shown.
On 10 and 14 bar units this will be a minimum increase of 100% on the published capacity. The following table gives the minimum additional
cold water capacities from the air vent.

Differential pressure bar (x 100 = kPa)

Additional cold water capacities from the thermostatic air vent under start-up conditions
Capacities shown above are based on condensate at saturation temperature. When discharging sub-cooled condensate the air vent
provides extra capacity. Under start-up conditions when the condensate is cold the internal thermostatic air vent will be open and provides
additional capacity to the main valve. On the IFT14-4.5 units, this will provide a minimum of 50% increased capacity above the hot
condensate figures shown. On the IFT14-10 and IFT14-14 units there will be a minimum increase of 100% on the published capacity.

drainage of temperature controlled systems.
They are the perfect choice in solving problems caused by steam
that is carrying solid and incondensable contaminants such as salts 1
and gasses; These quickly lead to fouling and the accumulation of
sediment and debris, resulting in failure of the internal mechanism.
They are typically used on geothermal steam.
The main design feature is the innovative self-cleaning float
closing mechanism, which allows automatic safe operation even 2a + 2b

in cases of severe steam contamination. Furthermore, the position
and size of the main valve and seat makes it easier for the discharge
of condensate and solid contaminant. The trap is able to modulate 3 11 8 6

variations of flow and pressure.

Safety information, installation and maintenance


For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions (IM-P605-02) supplied with the product.
Installation note:
FT_23 ball float steam traps must be installed below the draining point with the direction of flow as indicated on the body and with the
float lever positioned in a horizontal plane so that it rises and falls freely. For optimum working conditions and protection of the unit it is
recommended that a strainer be installed upstream to prevent possible damage to the internal mechanism and to ensure peak operation
within your plant.
In order to allow simple and safe inspection for cleaning or maintenance purposes install suitable isolation valves. If the trap is to
discharge to atmosphere ensure that it is to a safe place, the discharged medium may be at a temperature of 100C. In order to ensure
an efficient discharge of incondensable medium, it is recommended that a balance line be connected to a drain system (reference the
Installation and Maintenance Instructions that are supplied with the unit).

Disposal
The product is recyclable. No ecological hazard is anticipated with the disposal of this product providing due care is taken.
In the event that, during the operation, the trap comes into contact with harmful substances, you will need to dispose of it in accordance
with regulations under the current legislation.

Description
The FT46 is an austenitic stainless steel bodied ball float steam trap having stainless steel working internals and automatic air venting
facility. The body and cover castings are produced by a TV approved foundry. The trap is supplied with integrally flanged connections
and can be maintained without disturbing the pipework. Flow direction for the horizontal trap is clearly illustrated above.

Air vent: The BP99/32 capsule which is used in the FT46 is suitable for use on 150 C superheat @ 0 bar g. This value reduces with
elevated pressure.
The bimetallic element is fitted as standard to the 32 bar variants to provide additional superheat resistance. It is also available on other
variants on request. Please refer to the Pressure/temperature limits graph on page 2.

Standards: This product fully complies with the requirements of the European Pressure Equipment Directive and carries the
mark when so required.

Certification: This product is available with certification to EN 10204 3.1. Note: All certification / inspection requirements must be
stated at the time of order placement.

Optional extras: A manually adjustable needle valve (designated 'C' on the nomenclature i.e. FT46-C) can be fitted to the trap.
This option provides a steam lock release (SLR) feature in addition to the standard air vent.
Note: The SLR and bimetallic air vent cannot be used in conjunction with each other. Alternative arrangements may be available. For
further information please consult Spirax Sarco.
The top of the cover can be drilled and tapped " BSP or NPT for the purpose of fitting a balance line if requested at the point of
order.
The bottom of the cover can be drilled and tapped " BSP or NPT for the purpose of fitting a drain cock if requested at the point

General safety information


Pressure
Before attempting any maintenance on the trap, consider what is or may have been in the pipeline. Ensure that any pressure is isolated and
safely vented to atmospheric pressure before attempting to maintain the steam trap. This is easily achieved by fitting Spirax Sarco
depressurisation valves type DV (see separate literature for details). Do not assume that the system is depressurised even when a pressure
gauge indicates zero.
Temperature
Allow time for temperature to normalise after isolation to avoid the danger of burns and consider whether protective clothing (including
safety glasses) is required.
Caution: The cover gasket and main valve assembly gasket may contain a thin stainless steel support ring which may cause physical injury
if it is not handled and disposed of carefully.

Installation
The trap is designed for installation with the float arm in a horizontal plane so that it rises and falls vertically, ideally with a drop leg immediately
preceding the trap. Suitable isolation valves must be installed to allow for safe maintenance /replacement. Remove all protective caps prior to
installation. Open isolation valves slowly and check for leaks. Where steam traps are fitted in exposed conditions, the possibility of freezing
damage may be reduced by thermal insulation /draining /isolation.

Maintenance
Maintenance can be completed with the trap in the pipeline, once the safety procedures have been observed. It is recommended that new
gaskets and spares are used whenever maintenance is undertaken. Ensure that the correct tools and necessary protective equipment are used
at all times. When maintenance is complete open isolation valves slowly and check for leaks. See IM-P603-03 for further details.

Disposal
No ecological hazard is anticipated with the disposal of these products provided due care is taken.

Safety information, installation and maintenance


For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions (IM-P603-03) supplied with the product.
Installation note:
The trap is designed for installation with the float arm in a horizontal plane so that it rises and falls vertically, ideally with a drop leg immediately
preceding the trap. Suitable isolation valves must be installed to allow for safe maintenance /replacement. Where steam traps are fitted in
exposed conditions, the possibility of freezing damage may be reduced by thermal insulation /draining /isolation.
Caution: The cover gasket and main valve assembly gasket may contain a thin stainless steel support ring which may cause physical injury
if it is not handled and disposed of carefully.
Maintenance note:
Maintenance can be completed with the trap in the pipeline, once the safety procedures have been observed. It is recommended that new
gaskets and spares are used whenever maintenance is undertaken.

Disposal
No ecological hazard is anticipated with the disposal of these products provided due care is taken.

Safety information, installation and maintenance


For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions (IM-P603-03) supplied with the product.
Installation note:
The trap is designed for installation with the float arm in a horizontal plane so that it rises and falls vertically, ideally with a drop leg
immediately preceding the trap. Suitable isolation valves must be installed to allow for safe maintenance / replacement. Where steam
traps are fitted in exposed conditions, the possibility of freezing damage may be reduced by thermal insulation / draining / isolation.
For DN15 DN25 sizes : It is recommended that a strainer, with a screen having 0.8 mm perforations, is installed upstream of the unit
to ensure adequate removal of dirt from the steam system.
For DN40 DN50 sizes : It is recommended that a strainer, with a 40 mesh screen, is installed upstream of the unit to ensure adequate
removal of dirt from the steam system.
Maintenance note : Maintenance can be completed with the trap in the pipeline, once the safety procedures have been observed. It is
recommended that new gaskets and spares are used whenever maintenance is undertaken.
Caution : The cover gasket and main valve assembly gasket may contain a thin stainless steel support ring which may cause physical
injury if it is not handled and disposed of carefully.
Disposal : No ecological hazard is anticipated with the disposal of this product provided due care is taken.

Description
The Spirax Sarco HM Series of cast iron inverted bucket steam
traps are designed for installation in horizontal pipework. They are
available in screwed and flanged connections, with an optional
blowdown valve.

Screwed BSP or NPT
DN15 - HM003, DN20 - HM103 and DN25 - HM123.
Standard flange: BS 4504 and DIN PN16

Optional extras
Integral blowdown valve:- The HM Series inverted bucket steam
traps can be supplied with integral blowdown valves to remove
debris from the inlet strainer. For further details see the relevant
Technical Information Sheet.

External air vents:- When required, HM Series inverted bucket


5.6.2
steam traps can be supplied with separate thermostatic air vents
to provide the efficient and quick release of air. Various models,
both balanced pressure and bimetallic, are available. Details for
the range up to 30 bar g are shown in the relevant sales brochure.

Diffusers:- Where steam traps discharge to atmosphere a diffuser


should be fitted to reduce the effect of the blast discharge. The
diffuser not only reduces the risk of groundwork erosion and
condensate splashback, but also reduces sound pressure levels
as well. Available models are detailed in the relevant sales
brochure.

Safety information, installation and maintenance


Pressure
Before attempting any maintenance of the steam trap, consider what is or may have been in the pipeline. Ensure that any pressure
is isolated and safely vented to atmospheric pressure before attempting to maintain the steam trap. This is easily achieved by fitting
Spirax Sarco depressurisation valves type DV (see separate literature for details). Do not assume that the system is depressurised
even when a pressure gauge indicates zero.
Temperature
Allow time for temperature to normalise after isolation to avoid the danger of burns and consider whether protective clothing (including
5.6.4
safety glasses) is required.
Warning
The body/cover gasket contains a thin stainless steel support ring, which may cause physical injury if it is not handled and disposed of
carefully.

Installation
The trap must be installed with the body upright so that the bucket is rising and falling vertically. The inlet and outlet connections should
be in a horizontal plane, with the trap installed below the drain point so that a water seal can be maintained around the open end of the
bucket.
Suitable isolation valves must be installed to allow for safe maintenance and trap replacement. Remove all protective caps prior to
installation. Open isolation valves slowly until normal operating conditions are achieved. Check for leaks and correct operation.

Maintenance
Maintenance can be completed with the trap in the pipeline, once the safety procedures have been observed. It is recommended that new
gaskets and spares are used whenever maintenance is undertaken. Ensure that the correct tools and necessary protective equipment are
used at all times. When maintenance is complete open isolation valves slowly and check for leaks.
How to fit the valve and seat assembly
Isolate the trap, remove the cover by undoing the cover nuts.
Unhook the bucket from the valve lever. Remove the valve seat.
Remove the valve guide plate by undoing the two screws. Screw in a new valve seat, using a little jointing paste on the threads and making
sure the joint faces are clean. Fix a new valve guide plate in position by using the new screws which are supplied, hook the new valve
lever over the pins on the valve guide plate and centralise the valve to the orifice and tighten the screws.
Note: Due to adoption of metric threads the spares for the HM series, other than buckets, are not interchangeable with the spares for the
previous H series.
How to clean or replace the strainer screen
Undo the strainer cap and remove the screen. Clean or replace as required and reassemble the strainer cap into the body, ensuring the
screen is located centrally and a new gasket is used. Using a little anti-seize compound on the threads tighten to the recommended torque.

Disposal
This product is recyclable. No ecological hazard is anticipated with the disposal of this product, providing due care is taken.

Installation
The trap must be installed with the body upright so that the bucket
is rising and falling vertically. The inlet and outlet connections 5
should be in a horizontal plane, with the trap installed below the
drain point so that a water seal can be maintained around the
open end of the bucket.

Maintenance
Before undertaking any maintenance on the inverted bucket steam
trap it must be isolated from both supply line and return line and any
pressure allowed to safely normalise to atmosphere. The trap should
then be allowed to cool. It is recommended that new gaskets are
used whenever maintenance is undertaken. 18
The cover gasket contains a thin stainless steel support ring 6
which may cause physical injury if it is not handled and disposed (not an available spare)
of carefully.
How to fit valve and seat assembly Recommended tightening torques
Isolate the inverted bucket steam trap, remove body by undoing mm

Safety information, installation and maintenance


For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions
supplied with the product.

Installation note:
The trap must be installed below the drain point with the body
upright in a vertical position, the cover at the top and the inlet
connection at the bottom; this orientation will ensure that the
bucket mechanism will rise and fall vertically without any friction.
It is recommended that a strainer is installed upstream of the IBV
to protect it from contamination.
To permit safe inspection for cleaning or maintenance purpose it
is again recommended that suitable shut-off valves are installed
upstream and downstream of the IBV application.
It needs to be appreciated that there is blast discharge with this
device, consequently the downstream accessories, if any, should
be installed at a minimum distance of 1 m from the IBV.

Safety information, installation and maintenance


For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions
supplied with the product.

Installation note:
The trap must be installed below the drain point with the body
upright in a vertical position, the cover at the top and the inlet
connection at the bottom; this orientation will ensure that the
bucket mechanism will rise and fall vertically without any friction.
It is recommended that a strainer is installed upstream of the IBV
to protect it from contamination.
To permit safe inspection for cleaning or maintenance purpose it
is again recommended that suitable shut-off valves are installed
upstream and downstream of the IBV application.
It needs to be appreciated that there is blast discharge with this
device, consequently the downstream accessories, if any, should
be installed at a minimum distance of 1 m from the IBV.
