    EXPRESS LIMITED WARRANTY ........ 21 Introduction Thank you for purchasing the TLV SR steam condensing heat exchanger. This product has been thoroughly inspected before being shipped from the factory. When the product is delivered, before doing anything else, check the specifications and external appearance to make sure nothing is out of the ordinary.
  • Page 3: Safety Considerations

     The three types of cautionary items above are very important for safety: be sure to observe all of them as they relate to installation, use, maintenance, and repair. Furthermore, TLV accepts no responsibility for any accidents or damage occurring as a result of failure to observe these precautions.
  • Page 4 If the water seal or inside of the tube freeze, the inside of the product may be pressurized which could cause problems on equipment or devices that are connected to the product. 172-65207MA-08 (SR-3/SR-8) 8 Oct 2020...
  • Page 5: Product Description

    Product Description Intended Use The SR-3/SR-8 is an atmospheric indirect heat exchanger for recovering heat energy from waste or flash steam for applications where the steam cannot otherwise be utilized. By using this product for waste heat recovery or steam condensation, system energy efficiency, work environment, and plant scenery can be improved without increasing back pressure on steam-using equipment.
  • Page 6: System Principle

    System Principle Because the SR-3/SR-8 steam condensing heat exchanger does not have any valve parts on the Waste Steam Recovery side, it does not create any back-pressure on upstream equipment. For this reason, it can be directly connected to and used with feed water tanks and other vessels that do not meet pressure vessel regulations in most locations.
  • Page 7: Specifications

    Do not install valves or orifices at the exhaust outlet, since the SR is an atmospheric type heat exchanger. Maximum Operating Model Pressure Maximum Operating Temperature Heat Transfer Surface Area Maximum Steam Flow Rate Serial No. 172-65207MA-08 (SR-3/SR-8) 8 Oct 2020...

  • Page 12: Piping Installation 1: Waste Steam Inlet Piping

    To handle steam without applying back pressure on steam-using equipment, it is recommended that the piping be of the same diameter as the SR steam inlet (SR-3: 80 mm (3 in), SR-8: 150 mm (6 in)). Suggested diameters for the steam inlet piping...
