TECHNOLOGIES THAT MAKE UP OUR THS SYSTEM

CSI provides both the heating system and the steam circuit supply and return components for a Total Heating Solution. This package optimizes system performance, streamlines the procurement process, and minimizes capital and operating expense by optimizing infrastructure.

Every Component Works Together To:

  • Optimize Thermal Performance: Ensures all hardware is technically sufficient; ensures circuits do not exceed maximum distance.
  • Optimize Project Execution: Eliminates coordination between providers of engineered heating system and steam infrastructure components.
  • Optimize Total Life Costs: Minimizes quantity of field-installed components; minimizes long-term maintenance.

STEAM CIRCUIT SUB-SYSTEM

When CSI supplies the thermal maintenance system (TraceBOOST® Tracing, ControTrace®, or fully jacketed piping) why not let us also design and provide the steam circuitry sub systems?
CSI can optimize the configuration of these components to maximize efficiency and functionality – lowering both installed and ongoing operational costs. CSI has partnered with well-known, worldwide leading suppliers of these components to provide high quality products tailored to fit each CSI heating application. Keep your project simple and save money in the process – let CSI’s experienced design engineers take manifold to manifold responsibility to design a total heating solution for you. CSI’s circuitry sub system components deliver the technical and commercial value you’ve come to expect from CSI for over 50 years.

Features:

  • Optimized system performance, O&M and, project costs
  • Manifold optimization Scheme (MOS)
  • Field installation training & support
  • Reduced infrastructure
Benefits:
  • Fully Optimized Manifold Placement: All circuit routings are evaluated to determine minimum quantity of manifolds required.
  • Performance Based on Engineering: Circuit lengths maximized based on pressure drop analysis.
  • Reduced Installation & Labor Costs: Fewer manifolds and more strategically placed manifolds reduce overall installation & labor costs.

 

 Steam Piping

Like all other substances, water can exist in several states— solid, liquid, or vapor— depending on its temperature and pressure.  Steam is the name for water in its vapor state.  Steam is created by heating liquid water to a point where the intermolecular forces between the molecules are broken, allowing the molecules to move apart. Steam energy is a significant proportion of the energy costs in the process industry. Just having an efficient boiler does not ensure high efficiencies of the steam cycle rather efficiently distributing and utilizing steam combined with recovery of condensate play a major role in improving steam cycle efficiencies.


Every steam system consists of the following major components:

Steam Supply & Condensate Return Manifolds Steam Supply & Manifolds
The compact design saves space, reduces potential leak points, and expedites installation. Unlike gate or globe valves, our piston valves are self-cleaning, have an inherently erosion-resistant seating surface configuration, and do not have an exposed rotating shaft.

 

  Pre-Insulated Tubing Tubing Pre-Insulated
S-LINE® is used for steam supply and condensate return lines feeding individual steam circuits. Delivered as one continuous roll, each run is field routed to follow the best available path. Can be colored to differentiate steam from condensate.

 

Steam Trap & Trap Station Steam Trap & Trap Station
CSI will pick a trap style and model that best suits the heating technology and application. The Trap Station contains isolation valves, a strainer, and a test port in a single compact package. Both initial installation and future maintenance are simplified.

 

   


MONITORING

We offer a selection of steam circuit monitoring technologies ranging from simple to sophisticated.


Fiberoptic Temperature Monitor      Fiberoptic Temperature Monitor
This product continuously records approximate pipe surface temperature by running fiberoptic cables along the length of the pipe. A central controller translates the optical signal to a temperature plot.

 

  Heating medium temperature gauge Heating Medium Temperature Gauge
This insertion-mounted temperature gauge is typically installed on the last jumper, using a tee pipe fitting. It provides precise heating medium temperature.

 

gleason gauge Gleason Gauge
This surface-mounted temperature gauge is located upstream of the steam trap to provide a rough indication of circuit health.
