PRDS Valve Series
• Water entry from top of PRDS (540 series): For high steam pressure drop and high spray Water quantity requirement.
• Water entry from bottom of PRDS (520 series): Through stem : For low steam pressure drop and high or low spray water quantity requirement Through nozzle: For high steam pressure drop and low water quantity requirement (Available only in valve sizes 1” and 2”).
Features
• Pressure reduction and desuperheating in a single valve
• Compact unit
• Immediate response to flow changes
• No waterhammer
• No water carryover problems
• Efficient mixing of spray water
• Compact design
• Reduces need for separate desuperheater which simplifies your system
• Reduces length of piping because of elimination of separate desuperheater
• Available in various types like water entry from top or bottom as per water quantity and Pressure available at site
• Water is injected at the ‘Vena Contracta’ point which is the most turbulent zone causing Complete atomization
• High turndown ratio possible
• Improved rate of heat transfer
• Easy maintenance
• Some designs don’t contain a nozzle which avoids possibility of choking
