FARAD Heat Exhangers S.A. products

Also known as: Drain cooler, dump condenser, atmospheric condenser
The steam condenser is an integral part of any industrial and marine steam system. The heat exchanger condenses and sub cools return steam so that it can enter the boiler feed pump. Seawater or freshwater is used as the cooling medium. Steam condenses at atmospheric or higher than atmospheric pressure.

The COPT (Cargo Oil Pump Turbine) condenser, condenses steam under vacuum. It is used to condense low pressure steam before it enters the boiler feed pump. Twin jet ejectors for creating the vacuum, as well as the jet ejector condenser are also supplied. Steam ejectors are used to eject air form Condenser and maintain a vacuum inside. Seawater is used as the coolant fluid.

The cargo tanks in oil carriers require cleaning with hot water. This heater uses steam to raise the temperature of seawater to approximately 80 °C for effective cleaning. Steam flows in the shell side and seawater flows in the tube side.

The fresh water generator produces distilled water from seawater. It operates on the principle of vacuum distillation. Water evaporates in the lower part of the FWG and raises to the top. Solid particles remain in the brine which is returned overboard. Steam condenses and exits from the top part of the FWG. Farad FWG contains tubular heat exchangers which have proven reliability and provide high efficiency and easy maintenance.
