Constant Demand Direct Steam Injection Liquid Heater
What is a "Constant Flow" Steam Injection Heater?
The Pick Constant Flow Steam Injector is used wherever a relatively constant flow of heated liquid at a precisely controlled temperature is required.
The Constant Flow Steam Injector mixes medium-to-high pressure steam with cold water and delivers instant hot water. It is ideal when the water flow is fixed or varies over a narrow span (3:1).
The Pick Heater is delivered as a complete, compact system and can be easily customized with additional controls, valves, and instrumentation to meet your plant specifications. Save space, energy and maintenance costs using a Pick Constant Flow Heating System.
