WDS Series Steam Moisture Separator
![]() |
HOW IT WORKS
Moisture-laden steam enters the inlet of the separator where it is deflected in a centrifugal downward motion. The entrained
moisture is separated out by reduction in velocity. Separated liquid then falls below the Vortex containment plate where it cannot be re-entrained. Dry, clean steam then flows upward and exits through the outlet of the separator.
