We can provide you cleaning chemicals specifically formulated to remove mineral scale, insoluble scale, organic fouling or microbial residue.  

FM PISTON VALVE is a zero leak isolation Piston Valve, in which the seat & gland are replaced by Lower & Upper Sealing rings along with a Piston. This overcomes the difficulties usually associated with the replacement of conventional seats. The FM Piston valve is the name for prevention of inline leakage as well as leakage through glands, making for leakproof isolation in the pipelines. The FM Piston valve is a seat less & gland less Piston Valve. At the heart of the FM piston valve are Piston & sealing rings. A burnished piston seals against SS reinforced graphite rings to achieve a leak proof shutoff. This unique design ensures a long life even at high temperatures up to 427 deg C A Burnished piston is connected to the Piston Valve stem & hand wheel. The piston passes through two sealing rings separated by a lantern bush. Each sealing ring is Stainless steel reinforced graphite, which has both features of sustaining compression exerted by Bonnet & providing soft seal against piston. The upper sealing ring acts as a conventional gland packing and prevents leakage towards atmosphere. The lower sealing ring acts as the seat which prevents in line leakage. The lantern bush is required to maintain separation between the upper & lower rings & to allow flow through the Piston Valve.

FORBES Disc Check Valves are recommended after traps discharging into closed systems to guarantee against return or spill back. DCVs feature a compact and rugged stainless steel design and are suitable for any process liquid & gas, not just steam. Main advantage of these check valves is they can be mounted between pipe flanges in any direction. DCV 1,2,3DCV 1, 2 and 3 Disc Check Valves are designed to be sandwiched between flanges i.e. wafer type. They are suitable for use on a wide range of fluids for applications in process lines, hot water systems, steam and condensate systems etc. DCV 4 Wafer Check ValveThe DCV 4 Disc Check Valve is designed to be sandwiched between ANSI flanges. It is suitable for use on a wide range of fluids for applications in process lines, hot water systems, steam and condensate systems etc.

Hot condensate still contains 20% of the energy you used to make steam in the first place. And since condensate is distilled water, it makes perfect boiler feedwater. Our positive displacement pressure Powered Pump is the heart of a money and energy saving Condensate Return System.The PPPU pumps condensate at 100 oC without electricity, using just a small blast of steam or air pressure, even under vacuum and stall conditions. Due to its sealed & gland-less design, the collected condensate can be pumped immediately, without waiting for it to cool, and with no risk of cavitation Pressure Powered Pumping Packaged Unit (PPPPU) Pressure Powered Pumping Packaged Unit is a positive displacement pump unit operated by steam, compressed air or pressurized gas. The unit is specifically designed to pump hot liquids of specific gravity 1.0 down to 0.9. Condensate Recovery (CRM) is also an integral part of the PPPPU. It is an effective management tool which not only shows the condensate quantity & condensate temperature, but also shows the energy saved through condensate return. Together, this unit is a complete solution to collect condensate, pump it to desired level and destination, to measure the condensate temperature and meter the condensate quantity. PPPPU has to be preceded with properly sized flash vessel depending upon the condensate parameters.  

Flash steam can be effectively recovered by using a Condensate Flash Vessel as a part of a Flash Steam Recovery System. The flash steam is free steam and can be used to supplement the normal steam requirement. Flash steam should be separated from the condensate to maximise the system''s efficiency. Since the flash steam is utilised, it will not be vented to the atmosphere where it is wasted and can be a safety hazard.

FORBES Marshall brings to you the Automatic Pumping Trap - the world's smallest condensate drainage system that works under all the load conditions, even vacuum. It's compact design makes it convenient to install within 200 mm of the installation head. The Automatic Pumping Trap is fully mechanical with no requirement for electrical power, pnuematic supply, motors or level switches. What do you mean by Stall ? Stall is the reduction or the cessation of condensate flow from the steam space, and occurs when the pressure in the steam space is equal to, or less than, the total backpressure imposed on the steam trap.

The FORBES pressure reducing station is an engineered and factory assembled unit. It is designed in line with good steam engineering practices using our proprietary software. FORBES Marshall manufactures all the components of the pressure reducing station in-house, which enables quality control for each component to FORBES standards. Every component is tested on live steam & the entire assembly is hydro tested.
