ShortAbsorption Manifolds Steam absorption system for use in air handling units and duct systems
Overview • SAM-e basics • Why SAM-e? • Why insulate? • SS air gap insulation • R-Value • New product updates
Why SAM-e? • Short absorption distances are required • Easy to install • Lower cost & easier to install than multiple LS distributors • No maintenance required • Can be used with atmospheric steam or pressure (boiler) steam • Your AHU manufacturers like it!
Why Insulate? SAM-e Insulated Option • Reduce condensate losses and increase efficiency • 1075 BTU + Liquid Water = 1 lb Steam • 8.35 lbs Steam = 1 US Gallon Wasted Water • 1 US Gallon Wasted Water = Over 8000 BTU Wasted Energy
Why Insulate? SAM-e Insulated Option • Air stream heat gain • Low humidifier output • Low system efficiency
Benefits of Insulation SAM-e Insulated Option • Up to 70% condensate reduction • 120°F max surface temperature • Reduce heat gain • Improved efficiency
SAM-e Insulated Header Insulation Tube Insulation
Insulated Mini SAM-e Header Insulation Tube Insulation
Principle of Operation Insulated Steam Tube Cross Section Cool Airflow Stainless steel shielding ¼” Air-gap Foam strips Hot Steam
Other Benefits • Negligible effect on static pressure drop • Shedding of dust and dirt • Durability • Maintenance & inspection free • Easily retrofitted (units purchased after July 2008)
New White Paper • R-value represents a materials ability to resist the transfer of heat • Condensate losses dependent on a number of factors • Air temperature, duct velocity, distributor configuration • Have you seen an insulated distributor spec calling for: • “…R-value not less than 0.5”
Insulation R-Value R2 R1 R3 Rtotal = 0.66 *Fundamentals of Heat and Mass Transfer, 6th edition, F.P. Incropera
Example – Competitor Calculations • Total Length of tube: • 23 Tubes x 48” Each = 92 Linear ft • Total heat loss: • Stainless steel air gap: • 92 ft. x 441 Btu/hr/ft = 40,572 Btu/hr • PVDF: • 92 ft. x 190 Btu/hr/ft = 17,480 Btu/hr • Total condensate losses: • Stainless steel air gap: • 40,572 Btu/hr ÷ 970 Btu/lb = 41.8 lbs/hr • PVDF: • 17,480 Btu/hr ÷ 970 Btu/lb = 18.0 lbs/hr 441 190
Example – Nortec Calculations 0.2 Total condensate losses: 92 ft. x 0.2 lbs/hr/ft = 18.4 lbs/hr
