Degas Column Relisafe ™ CO2

In Steam and Water Cycle conductivity measurement is very basic, but the most important measurement. Specific conductivity (total conductivity), acidic conductivity, conductivity after cation exchanger CACE and degassed cation conductivity (DCASE) are measured at different location in steam and water cycle continuously Conductivity measurements give indication of contamination of water / steam with any kind of salts.

These salts can get added to the water / steam from atmosphere or due to leakages in heat exchangers etc. The conductivity of ultra pure water is almost close to zero(as low as 0.05 microsiemens/cm), while with addition of even 1ppm of any salt, the conductivity can shoot up to even more than 100 micro siemens/cm. Thus conductivity is a very good general purpose watch dog which can give a quick indication of plant malfunctioning or possible leakages.

Degassed cation conductivity (DCASE) is very critical measurement for Power plants operated under Cyclic, Variable loads and frequent start stop operations. DCACE Measurement is recommended in Condensate and Steam for such power plants

Forbes Marshall’s Relisafe-CO2 Degas Conductivity Measurement System is designed to optimise the CO² removal process for conductivity measurement in ultrapure water applications. A unique heat recovery feature ensures minimum power consumption along with maximum accuracy of measurement.
