Clean steam generation
Spirax Sarco has launched its Compact Clean Steam Generator range for hospital sterilisation and smaller industrial applications. Using plant steam to heat treated feedwater, the generators can produce up to 580kg/h of clean steam. When demineralised or reverse osmosis feedwater is used, the generators comply with the demanding requirements of Health Technical Memoranda HTM 2010 and 2031 covering sterilisation in hospitals. The generators are fitted with pre-heat tanks to raise the feedwater to 85?C before it enters the boiler. This removes soluble gases in the feedwater, improving the output quality and eliminates the need to heat cold feedwater in the boiler. This avoids the thermal stresses that can damage systems without pre-heating when cold feedwater hits the boiler, which typically runs at 140?C.
