The basic design of steam distributing coils features an inner tube inserted down the entire length of the outer tube. The steam is fed through the inner tube and into the space between the inner and outer tube, either at the end of the tube or through perforations, and then condenses. The outer tube is plugged or capped so that the condensate remains under pressure and is distributed to the return header.
Steam distributing coils are designed to feed live steam across the entire coil face providing even heat distribution and to minimize freeze risks. The design typically involves a pitched core/casing design to encourage the flow of the condensate back to the drain line.
Our steam distributing coils are used in several industries, including food storage & processing, military, HVAC, and power generation.
- Opposite or same end connections
- Pitched casing for proper condensate removal
- Enclosed header construction
- Thin wall tubing for low steam pressures (5 - 15 psig) to heavier wall tube for higher pressure steam (150+ psig)
- Aluminum fin
- Carbon steel tube and fin
- Copper tube and fin
- 304/316 Stainless steel tube and fin
