The Concept
The vent condenser is a plume abatement device. Vented steam is directed into the unit where it is cooled and condensed by cold plant water. Energy is continously recovered at a rate of 970 BTU's for every pound of steam contained in the plume. It is recovered in two forms, hot water and clean distilled condensate ready for productive use elsewhere in your operation.

Benefits:
- Energy recovery from latent heat process.
- Water recovery from plume condensate.
- Stop moisture damage to the roofing structure.
- Prevent ice/snow build-up on the roof in winter months.
- Aesthetic reasons: removal of the steam plume.

Applications
Cannon Vent Condensers can be used wherever steam is vented to the atmosphere. They are particulary suited for use with deaerators, high pressure condensate collectors, and condensing of other process vapor venting devices. Our standard unit is capable of collapsing 1,000pph steam at 5 psi. Other custom designed units are available upon request. |
Options:
-
In-line safety relief valve. Protects piping between steam source pressure vessel and Vent Condenser shell from overpressure.
-
A.S.M.E stamped and National Board Registered coil.
-
Coolant temperature control valve
