J-Series PSX Steam Sparger Steam Injection Heater
The ProSonix Jet steam sparger is direct steam injection heater for heating water and slurries. It can be a tank mount steam sparger or installed directly in a liquid pipeline. The integral modulating steam control design allows for mass flow heat-up of tanks and trim temp heating for maintenance. High velocity steam delivery assures complete mixing of steam, reducing occurrences of vibration, and saves energy losses from uncondensed steam escaping. An excellent upgrade for poor performing sparge nozzles, sparge tubes, and steam ejectors.
What is a steam sparger?
The ProSonix J-Series Jet Sparger is designed for water and slurry heating for both tank and inline applications. Typical applications are boiler feedwater tank heating, CIP hot water for plant sanitation and chemical CIP applications along with central hot water tank storage requirements. Also, well suited for central hot water re-collection tanks such as paper mill whitewater heating systems. Can be installed in your existing tank flange, or simply by adding a flanged inlet to your process piping.

APPLICATIONS
Boiler Feedwater Tank
The steam sparger steam injection heater can heat boiler feedwater tanks to drive off the dissolved oxygen and maintain steady feedwater temperature to the boiler. This reduces the amount of oxygen scavenging chemicals required.
CIP Hot Water
Can be used to heat CIP hot water tanks for plant sanitation hot water or chemical CIP cleaning systems.
Manual Tank Fill
Hot water tanks that are on standby for hot water used can be kept at target temp to ensure hot water is ready when you need it.
Chemical Mix Tanks
When water tanks are used to mix special batches of dry chemicals and hot water.
Boiler Deaerator Tank
Heating the water helps to optimize oxygen release protecting boiler components.
Reactor Sparging
Sparging is another one of the three main applications for removing inert gases. It can be used to strip oxygen from liquids such as oils, beverages, chemicals and wastewater.
