STEAM

• Pilot Control Valve
  A pilot operated valve can only be used with steam as the energy source. Pilot operated valves use steam pressure as the energy to modulate the control valve. Steam from upstream of the valve is directed into a pilot valve. This pilot valve has an adjustable set point and pressure sensor sensing generated steam pressure. The pilot valve compares the set point to the sensed pressure and regulates the amount of steam passing through the pilot to the diaphragm in the bottom of the control valve. The steam pressure on the diaphragm opens the valve. A pilot operated valve has a constant bleed line leading from the diaphragm to the downstream side of the valve. When the pilot valve senses that the desired pressure is reached it closes; this does not allow any more steam to pressurize the diaphragm in the bottom of the control valve. The bleed line allows any steam pressurizing the diaphragm to be relieved and the valve closes. In the event of high pressure or loss of building power the limit control closes the steam line from the pilot to the valve which closes the valve. With a supply pressure of up to 15 PSI, 3 PSI is the minimum pressure drop permitted across the valve. With a supply pressure from 16 to 31 PSI, 10 PSI is the minimum pressure drop permitted across the valve. With a supply pressure from 31 PSI and above, 20 PSI is the minimum pressure drop permitted across the valve.
  
  
• Pneumatic (Air) Control Valve
  Air operated valves are normally used in building when building control air is available. Air operated valves use building control air pressure to modulate the control valve. The air signal is brought to an adjustable set point pressure sensing controller sensing generated steam pressure. The pressure sensing controller compares the set point to the sensed pressure. The controller regulates the amount of air that passes to the pneumatic actuator of the valve to modulate the valve. This allows steam to pass into the unfired steam generator coil to maintain the set point of the controller. When the set point is achieved, no air is passed through the pressure sensing controller and the valve is closed. In the event of high pressure or loss of building power, the limit control will close the air line to the valve and vent any air to the actuator to atmosphere which closes the valve.
  
  
• Electronic Control Valve
  Electronically operated control valves use a solid state pressure sensor which is wired to an electronic control module. The electronic module has an adjustable set point. The control module compares the set point with the sensed pressure and sends an electric signal to a magnetic linear actuator on the control valve. The magnetic linear actuator modulates the control valve and regulates the amount of steam through the valve to maintain the set point of the controller. When the set point is achieved, the controller sends a signal to the valve actuator and the valve closes. In the event of high pressure or loss of building power, the limit control closes the electric power to the controller which closes the valve.
  
  
• Steam Traps
  CEMLINE provides float and thermostatic traps for both the drip and main trap. Float and thermostatic traps are acknowledged as the correct traps to use with continuously modulating control valves. Float and thermostatic traps provide immediate drainage of condensate and include a built in thermostatic air vent for venting air. The drain orifice is designed to provide a water seal and eliminate the loss of any live steam under all load conditions. Float and thermostatic traps should not be used to lift condensate.
  
  
• Inlet Stream Strainer
  Strainers are "Y" type with blow down connection and easily removable stainless steel strainer screen.
  
  
• Source Steam Pressure Gauge
  Large, easily readable pressure gauges to read both the source and generated steam pressure.
  
  

OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT

• Vacuum Breaker
  A vacuum breaker will be mounted in the coil head and will break any vacuum which might occur when the source steam is condensed.
  
  
  

MAKE UP WATER FEEDING OPTIONS

• Feedwater Pump/Condensate Receiver
  As the boiler makes steam, it is necessary to replenish the boiled off water. This method feeds the water from a boiler feed pump unit with a condensate tank. The condensate tank is fed with make up water and condensate. It operates on a signal from the level controller on the Unfired Steam Generator which starts a pump that feeds the make up water into the Unfired Steam Generator. When the water level in the Unfired Steam Generator is satisfied, an electrical signal from the level controller signals the water feed pump to close. The feed water pump pressure must be 15 psi greater than the generated steam pressure. A solenoid valve and check valve is supplied between the pump and the unfired steam generator.
  
  
• Feed Water Pump
  As the boiler makes steam, it is necessary to replenish the boiled off water. This method uses a feed water pump which is connected to the make up water line and is started and stopped from a signal from the level controller. A solenoid valve and check valve is supplied between the pump and the unfired steam generator.
  

AUTOMATIC BLOW DOWN OPTIONS

• Automated Blow Down - Timer Method
  Unfired Steam Generators using city water will build up an accumulation of minerals in the boiler. These minerals must be disposed by a blowdown system. The blowdown system can simply be a manual blowdown where the maintenance person would manually blow off for a set period of time for a set frequency. It is advantageous to offer an automatic blowdown system. The simplest automatic blowdown system is one that operates from timers. The CEMLINE 2001 SSCM has a built in interval and duration timer wired to a blowdown solenoid valve. The owner/operator can set an interval between blowdowns in a range from 1 to 160 hours and a blowdown duration range of 1 to 250 seconds. The automatic blowdown is a fairly simple system. The automatic timer blowdown requires the owner/operator of the Unfired Steam Generator to do some analysis to determine what duration and interval he/she wishes to have his blowdown occur. *Note: Most municipalities do not allow high temperature discharge directly into the sewer system. CEMLINE offers a type "CBO" centrifugal blow-off/condensate cooler which will receive the blow down, flash the blow down to steam, and cool the condensate going to drain.
  
  
• Automated Blow Down - Total Dissolved Solids Method
  There is a more sophisticated system, which samples the boiler water and blows the boiler down when the dissolved solids exceed the set point. This is a time sample method which measures the total dissolved solids by opening the blowdown valve for an adjustable time period and measuring the blow off for dissolved solids. If the total dissolved solid exceeds the trip point, the motorized valve will remain open until the fresh water make up dilutes the boiler water to a safe level of total dissolved solids. *Note: Most municipalities do not allow high temperature discharge directly into the sewer system. CEMLINE offers a type "CBO" centrifugal blow-off/condensate cooler which will receive the blow down, flash the blow down to steam, and cool the condensate going to drain.
  
  
• Centrifugal Boiler Blow Off/Condensate Cooler
  CEMLINE blow down/condensate coolers are designed to receive blow down from a steam boiler, flash the blow down to steam, and cool the condensate going to drain.
  
  
• High Water Cut Off
  In some unusual situations, it is possible for the feedwater to fail which could cause the Unfired Steam Generator to fill with water and flood the entire system. To prevent this from happening, CEMLINE CORPORATION® offers, as an option, a high water cut-off to close a feedwater ball valve if a high water condition occurs. This option consists of a level control connected to a high level switch. The high level switch will send a signal to either an air operated ball valve or an electrically operated ball valve mounted in the feedwater line. These valves are power to open, spring to close.

• Two Way Valve
  A two way valve modulates from fully closed to fully open varying the amount of hot water circulated through the coil to maintain the desired output pressure. When closed the two way valve may cause a change in the heating water loop pressure.
  
  
• Three Way Valve
  A three way valve modulates from directing all heating water through the coil to directing no heating water through the coil, varying the amount of hot water circulated through the coil to maintain the desired output pressure. The pressure drop in the heating system will be relatively constant with a three way valve.
