3. rax Sarco has the answer
Boiler Controls & Systems
Requirements for greater productivity have led to increasing boiler house automation
and limited levels of supervision. Spirax Sarco has developed a range of boiler controls
that improve levels of both efficiency and safety in the boiler house.
• Surface (TDS) Blowdown Systems • High and Low Level Alarm Systems
• On/Off and Modulating Level Controls • Boiler Bottom Blowdown System
• Condensate Contamination Detection Systems
• By measuring boiler water conductivity, Spirax Sarco surface blowdown systems
provide automatic TDS control. The same operating principle is used to monitor and
control retuning condensate lines ensuring contaminated condensate is not retuned
to the boiler house.
• Using “state-of-the-art” conductivity and capacitance probes, Spirax Sarco systems
provide automatic On/Off and Modulating level controls for boilers, deaerators,
feedwater tanks, etc.
• High integrity, self-monitoring level alarm systems incorporating conductivity probes
offer low maintenance, high and low alarms that provide warnings of system faults
and allow safe shutdown of plant. These systems are suitable for steam boilers,
particularly for those operating with only limited supervision, and can be used with other vessels.
Flow Meters
EMCO Flow Systems has been in the metering business for over 45 years with field
proven flowmeters offering solutions for measurement including industrial inline vortex,
industrial insertion vortex and turbine, and variable area flow products. Now part of the
Spirax Sarco group of companies, our global network of over 1,300 dedicated industry
engineers in 34 different countries, and with over a combined 150 years of experience,
we can give you access to the expertise and resources you need to improve the
performance of your plant, comply with legislation, meet environmental goals and stay
ahead of even the most intense competition.

condensate and other liquids from vacuum systems, condensers, process equipment, or
any other steam condensing equipment. The Pressure Powered Pump can handle liquids
from 0.65 to 1.0 specific gravity and capacities up to 39,000 lb/hr. Available in cast iron or
fabricated steel (ASME code stamped) with stainless steel internals and stainless steel
check valves. The rugged body allows a maximum pressure of 125-300 psig. This system
solution saves energy and provides optimum system efficiency with low maintenance.
• Pressure Powered Pump • Packaged Pressure Powered Pumps
• High Capacity Pressure Powered Pump • Electric Pumps
• Combined Automatic Pump Traps
For easy installation, Pressure Powered Pump packaged units are pre-piped and combine any Pressure Powered Pump, with a
receiver, strainer, isolation valves and traps as requested. Electric pumps are packaged units, assembled, wired and tested. Electric
condensate return pumps are available in simplex units with an integral float switch or a mechanical alternator on the duplex units.

5. High Purity Products
Avoidance of the risk of contamination across many industries has resulted in a growing
need for clean steam, pure steam and water of WFI (Water For Injection) quality.
Products suitable for these high purity systems must be designed and manufactured
to a high standard to ensure compliance with the exacting rules and regulations set for
example by the biopharmaceutical and healthcare industries. Spirax Sarco’s extensive
range of high purity products extends from generation through distribution to usage.
• Sanitary control and instrumentation
• Pure and clean steam trapping
• Sanitary ancillary products
• Fabrication and service

• Radiator Valves • Vent Heads
• Ball Valves • Vacuum Breakers
• Steam Injectors
Training
Years of accumulated experience has enabled the development and nurturing of
in-depth expertise for the proper control and conditioning of steam. Experienced
field personnel work closely with design, operations, and maintenance engineers,
continuously evaluating ways to improve productivity. Often, these solutions pay for
themselves many times over.
The four U.S. training centers located in Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, and Columbia,
SC., have on-site steam systems providing hands-on training. Education programs
include the theory of steam, the application of steam products, plant design, energy and
system efficiency, to name just a few. Programs also can be tailored to meet individual
needs. Thousands of engineers, maintenance personnel, operations managers, energy
and plant managers complete Spirax Sarco training programs each year and return to
continue broadening their knowledge of steam systems.

The environment
Steam has always been environmentally friendly
- modern, highly efficient centralized boiler plant
ensures emissions are minimized and the steam
itself condenses to pure, unpolluted water. Spirax
Sarco remains at the forefront of improving the
efficiency of the entire steam and condensate loop
and is the only company with this total capability.
