| CHARACTERISTICS
SCAM deaerators are different from traditional plants
since they use a type of dispersion with discs and rings
- designed in order to realize the max. mixing between
water and heating steam - and expecially the spraying
system.
The water to degas is lead into a water box, where the
spraying system is installed in the lower part.
The system consists of a set of stacked discs so that
to form a vertical cylinder keyed, in the lower part,
by a flat plate and tied in the upper parts on the bottom
of the inlet water box. The water enters the vertical
channel formed by the discs and is sprayed in very thin
blades through the available space existing between
every two discs. The spraying is constant and independent
from the water flow. Actually, every disc consists of
an elastic ring connected, by means of spokes, to a
central hub.
