temperature of the outlet steam. DeSuperheater can be classified into two:

a. Non-Integral type DeSuperheater: where DeSuperheater nozzle and water valve are separate units

b. Integral type DeSuperheater: where DeSuperheater is in-built with actuator so that there is no need of separate
spray water valve
DeSuperheater nozzles are also classified into:
a. Venturi type: Where nozzle orifice is fixed irrespective of flow variation
b. Variable orifice: where orifice area opening will vary according to the flow and pressure variations
Applications
PRDS and DeSuperheaters are used in all Process and Power Plants where steam service is involved. Typical
applications are in Boiler steam, Turbine by-pass, Attemperator, HRSG (Heat recovery steam Generation), and typical
Process application where steam temperature and Pressure are critical.
Turbine Bypass valve
Auxillary PRDS
Turbine Gland Sealing
Pegging Steam
Attemperator
Benefits at a glance
Normally steam will be produced in the Boiler with high pressure and temperature and depending on the process
requirement, pressure and temperature will be reduced at the consumption point at the plant. This will help to reduce
the energy losses during the transmission.
PRDS used in turbine bypass application help to protect the turbine during start-up, power trip and also for part load
generation. Turbine by pass valve will prevent venting of steam into atmosphere and allow the steam to be dumped
into condenser so that energy can be saved to generate high temperature Boiler Feed Water.
Applications
Thermal Power Plants and Cogeneration Plants
All process plants like Fertilizers, Petrochemical, Refineries, Pharmaceuticals, Sugar Pulp & Paper, Steel etc.
