- Air Ejectors (2 Of 3)
Air Ejectors (2 of 3) -An air ejector or steam ejector is a device which uses the motion of moving fluid (Motive Fluid) to transport another fluid (Suction fluid). It is has a wide range of application in steam ejector in boiler condenser, fresh water...
- Deaerator ( Part 2 )
DEAERATOR ( PART 2 ) OPERATION PROCEDURES ** Pre-start checks and operations(1) Vent valve shall be wide open.(At low load start, it may be necessary to throttle valve slightly to increase the operating pressure, but vent valve not to be fully close...
- Steam Turbine & Generator Arrangement
STEAM TURBINE ARRANGEMENT The live steam enters the HP turbine through the main stop valves (MSV) and the main control valves (GOVERNORS). After expansion in the HP turbine, the steam is let to the cold reheat line via power assisted check valve. The...
- Self-flushing Debris Filter
The quality of the cooling water intake and the amount of debris in that water affects the operation and performance of the condenser and therefore the thermal performance of the typical steam plant. Material such as slime, calcium carbonate, calcium...

Condenser Vacuum low reasons
Vacuum low reasons:
1. Check condenser surface area, make sure it is clean (you can do inspection for one room while the other still in service and you need to reduce load) this is if possible with your business operations
2. Check for leakage around flanges, gaskets, valves etc, near ejector and condenser
3. Check MP steam pressure which drives the ejector (is it according to the required pressure)??
4. Check ejector drain and steam trap which send the condensate back to condenser (plug-up or not)??
5. Check if someone has opened chest valve / valve after governor drain, maybe drain valve is open instead of steam trap, because condensate which goes back to condenser should pass steam trap, not through drain.
6. Check your vacuum breaker is not in service
7. Check level of condenser, it should be good, and check temperature of cooling water for condenser, it should be low enough to condenser steam.
