Pick Heaters – Direct Steam Injection (DSI)
More Information
Advantages of Our Product
Energy Efficient
When compared to Tank Steam Sparging, Indirect Shell & Tube, or Plate Heat Exchangers, Pick Direct Steam Injection Heaters can cut fuel costs dramatically – up to 28% – because 100% of the available energy from the steam is instantly absorbed by the liquid. We can conduct a energy comparison study for you!
Exceptional Temperature Control
Accurate temperature control throughout the entire operating range conserves energy and assures product quality. The Pick Heaters DSI adapts quickly to process load changes and can maintain precise temperature control to within 1°C.
Complete Mixing in Heater Body
With Pick Heaters DSI, there is no need for straight run discharge piping before or after the heater as required by high velocity steam eductors.
Capital Costs Savings
When compared to conventional heat exchangers, DSI heaters take up only a fraction of the space. No matter what your plant size or floor space constraints are, there’s always room for a Pick Heater. The DSI also deliver an unlimited supply of hot water on demand, thus eliminating the need for large storage tanks.
Low Maintenance Costs
The DSI has only one moving part, which can be inspected quickly and easily. Replacement parts are low cost as compared to expensive internal trim in high velocity steam eductor heaters and heat exchanger tube bundles or gasketed plates.
