JET VACUUM SYSTEMS PVT. LTD

An ISO 9001:2008 Certified Company Efficiency is our prime concern
Steam Jet Ejector is the total absence of moving parts, which eliminate mechanical breakdown, and assures constant and
dependable operation with freedom from repairs. No adjustment or lubrication is required nor are any specially trained
operators necessary as their operation is very simple. Over and above this, as Steam Jet Vacuum System convey at very high
velocity which are many times the speed of sound, they are capable of handling large volume under vacuum thus making them
eminently suitable for deodorization, evaporation, distillation, crystallization, power generation, dye & intermediates
applications wherein high quantity of condensable and non-condensable loads are to be handled.

PRINCIPLE :
Steam Jet Ejectors offer a reliable & economical means for producing vacuum. In
Steam Jet Ejector, pressure energy of motive fluid is converted into velocity
energy. The velocity energy entrains the suction fluid. This entrained mixture of
motive fluid & suction fluid are discharged via convergent/divergent diffuser
where its velocity energy is reconverted into pressure energy. This action makes
the discharge pressure higher then suction pressure thus a Steam Jet Ejector
behaves like a compressor.

 Troubleshooting

Unsatisfactorily performance of an Ejector System can

be caused by external or internal causes.
Unsatisfactory performance can also be classified as
sudden or gradual.
The gradual loss of vacuum will normally suggest
internal erosion or corrosion, whereas a sudden loss of
vacuum will normally suggest external causes. Since it
is easier to check external Causes of trouble, all
possible external causes should be checked first.
Multi Nozzle Steam Booster System
External Causes of Trouble:

1. Low steam pressure.

2. Wet steam.
3. High water temperature or insufficient water flow.
4. Entrained air in condenser water.
5. High discharge pressure
6. Fluctuating water pressure
7. Change in load excessive air leakage.

Let us assume that a multi-stage system has lost

vacuum.
The possible external causes are quickly checked and Multi Nozzle Steam Booster
are Found trouble-free.
We must now look for internal causes of trouble.

Internal Causes of Trouble :

1. Eroded or corroded parts, particularly nozzles and

diffusers.
2. Clogged nozzles, diffusers and strainers.
3. Leaks in steam chests.
4. Clogged or fouled water supply.
5. Clogged water discharge.
6. Excessive leakages cracked or worn parts.
7. Inter-condenser water nozzle eroded. Booster System
