Steam and Water Analysis System (SWAS):

In any Power Plant running on steam, the purity of boiler feed water and steam is absolutely crucial; especially to steam turbine, steam boiler, super heater, condenser and other steam equipment.To prevent damage of steam turbine, steam boiler & other apparatus due to Scaling and Corrosion, on line steam and water analysis critical parameters such as pH, Conductivity, Dissolved Oxygen, Silica, Sodium, Phosphate etc. is a must. The steam can be as hot as 560°C.The pressures can be as as 250 bar. To keep the power plant up & running, with minimum erosion and corrosion of steam turbine, steam boiler & condenser, we have developed fully integrated Steam & Water Analysis Systems (SWAS) that provide exact, precise measurements on all these critical parameters. A good SWAS necessitates efficient Sample Cooler for water sampling, steam sampling, or process sampling problem We also have broad experience in compact Heat Exchangers and boiler blowdown heat recovery systems.

To keep the power plant up & running, with minimum erosion and corrosion of steam turbine, steam boiler & condenser, we have developed fully integrated Steam & Water Analysis Systems (SWAS) that provide exact, precise measurements on all these critical parameters & works like a sentry for the power plant. A well engineered SWAS would call for a good expertise in mechanical aspects such as knowledge & expertise on welding practices, piping design and thermodynamics. With more than 50 years experience in steam related products & systems, we can offer you all this. It also calls for expertise in Control Instrumentation when it comes to offering analyzers in SWAS. We represent Hach Ultra Analytics, Switzerland for Polymetron range of analyzers for more than 3 decades. This makes us the most preferred vendor for many power companies in the world.

What is new from Forbes Marshall :

CoolMax : Coil in coil type sample cooler : The CoolMax Tube in Tube Helically coiled Heat Exchanger is similar to the straight double-pipe heat exchangers used in Industrial process heating/cooling purposes, except that the tubes are both curved to take advantage of the space saving characteristics & the enhanced heat transfer coefficients of the helical geometry. The design is ideally suitable where one has to extract more heat at lesser flow rates/temperatures – The application areas include, Pharma, Pertochemical, Alcohol, Chemical, Waste Water etc
