How It Works
Wet steam enters the inlet of the separator where it is deflected in a centrifugal downward motion. The entrained moisture is separated out by reduction in velocity. Separated liquid then falls below the cyclone drip plate where it cannot be re-entrained. Dry steam or air then flows upward and exits through the outlet of the separator.
Installation and Maintenance
The WDS Air/Steam Moisture Separator must be installed in a horizontal run of pipe. Exercise standard piping and structural practices when installing this unit. Proper drainage of the separator utilizing a float & thermostatic steam trap or liquid
