SIHI~Global, Dependable
Condenser Evacuation
Full Conformance to HEI Standards
Global Leadership in
Liquid Ring Technology
Designed for 1"HgA or main condenser design pressure, whichever is lower, and 7.5F sub-cooling
he heart of our condenser evacuation package is our rugged, lowmaintenance, two-stage liquid ring vacuum pump. It is the ideal
solution for handling liquid carryover, condensate and large volumes
of water vapor. It performs seamlessly and automatically through
condenser hogging and holding. The positive displacement characteristics of SIHI liquid ring vacuum pumps result in significantly
increased performance even as air in-leakage increases, so your condenser will continue to operate closer to the design point. Our liquid
ring pump tracks condenser performance as cooling water temperature varies, since it uses main condenser circulating water for cooling. You can begin condenser hogging without waiting for full steam
pressure, which is ideal for plants that need to come online quickly.
Two-stage liquid ring pumps are naturally suited for main condenser
evacuation service and provide long life and optimum performance
for your steam turbine condenser system.
s a global leader in the electric utility industry, SIHI has hundreds of installations in conventional, geothermal and nuclear
steam power plants worldwideso we understand your needs. Main
steam condenser air removal is critical to efficient plant operation,
and an application in which we excel, but we also cover the entire
gamut of power plant applications, including water-box and pump
priming, condenser hogging, deaeration, flue gas desulfurization
and fly-ash conveying. We also have a significant installation list of
pumps and systems in nuclear plants around the world. All systems
supplied to North American customers are designed and built in the
USA to meet your most exacting design specifications.
IHI 2-Stage liquid ring vacuum pumps are the standard for reliability and efficiency in power applications for good reason. Their
ability to condense water vapor and tolerate liquid carryover makes
them ideal for condenser air removal service. But, only the cool
thrive and survive. Because water temperature is so important to
liquid ring reliability and performance, SIHI pumps are designed to
fully utilize available cooling water supply. A few degrees difference
in seal water temperature can result in huge performance penalties,
especially at normal condenser operating pressures, and can spell
the difference between a pump that cavitates and fails, and one that
runs maintenance-free over an extended period. This is a significant
advantage, particularly on condenser air removal service, and one
that cannot be overemphasized.

electing the best vacuum system for your condenser involves a thorough
understanding of anticipated plant loading, seasonal factors, condenser
performance and design point, the effect of condenser pressure on turbine
efficiency and other factors. Our engineers can assist you in estimating your
needs until you are ready for in-depth analysis.
