Desuperheaters are used to control
the temperature of superheated steam
{or gas). By injecting water into the
steam flow, the steam temperature
becomes reduced. Temperature
reduction to 8° C (14° F) above the
saturation temperature is possible.
Features:
™ Characteristic: linear/modified
parabolic
™ Large delta P water/steam
possible (max 100 bar/1450 psi)
™ Large rangeability
Tight shut-off
No additional control valve
required
BO16-3EN‘The nozzles in the sprayhead are designed to give the
injection water a high velocity and a radial rotating
movement under all conditions. The result isa fine
atomisation and very quick evaporation (see fig. 2)

Introduction
Desuperheating (cooling) the steam can simply be
achieved by inject water into the steam flow. When.
injected, the water is evaporated by means of the
