Hamworthy has recently provided several condensation plant projects for the industrial power generation market, with many more in the pipeline.
Apart from the supply of apparatus Hamworthy also offer a supply of complete condenser installations including all the necessary aggregates such as evacuating systems, condensate pumps, condensate level control and safety valve.
Air Cooled Condensers
Air cooler condensers manufactured by Hamworthy Serck Como are especially suitable for liquefaction of turbine exhaust steam at vacuum conditions. The use of low-noise fans enables Hamworthy to install air cooled condensers near residential areas.
Water Cooled Condensers
This condenser is a shell and tube type heat exchanger. The vapour is conducted around the heat bundle and it condenses (liquifies) at the heat exchange space of the pipes. Below the steam inlet there is an impact plate in order to protect the pipes against erosion due to beating of drops, a hotwell is provided for collecting the condensate.
In addition to supplying condensers Hamworthy Serck Como also offer:
• engineering
• all necessary auxiliary and safety equipment
• switchgear cabinet for control of the plant
• assembly and commissioning
• pipework, exhaust steam pipe, electric cabling and heat insulation.
