Gland Steam Condenser

HTAC Gland Steam Condensers efficiently condense steam from turbine glands, ensuring safe and effective turbine operation. Available in jet, fan, and atmospheric types.
Availability:


We manufacture high-performance gland steam condensers designed to maintain negative pressure in the gland seal systems of turbines. Our condensers are engineered to efficiently condense the leakage steam from turbine glands and return it as condensate to the system. Ideal for power plants, our gland steam condensers ensure safe and efficient turbine operation while minimizing energy loss.


Key Features of Gland Steam Condensers



Our gland steam condensers are designed to handle the leakage steam from the front and rear glands of a steam turbine, ensuring that the turbine operates under optimal conditions. These units are available in jet type, fan type, and atmospheric type configurations, allowing flexibility depending on the specific application. The gland steam is condensed by cooling water flowing through heat exchange tubes, and the resulting condensate is collected and returned to the boiler feed system.


Structure and Working Principle


HTAC’s gland steam condensers utilize a shell and tube heat exchanger configuration. Cooling water flows through the tubes to remove heat from the gland steam, condensing it into water. Non-condensable gases are vented out of the system to maintain efficiency. This condensation process ensures that the turbine gland remains at a slight negative pressure, preventing steam leakage into the atmosphere and improving overall turbine efficiency.

Applications of Gland Steam Condensers


Primarily used in steam turbines, gland steam condensers are essential in power plants to control and manage leakage steam from the shaft seals of rotating equipment. By collecting and condensing this steam, our equipment ensures that the turbine gland system operates with minimal steam loss and maximized efficiency. The gland steam system forms an integral part of the turbine’s operation, preventing the loss of valuable steam and reducing operational risks associated with high-pressure systems.


Benefits of HTAC Gland Steam Condensers


  • Efficient Steam Condensation: Our condensers ensure that all gland steam is captured and condensed, reducing steam loss and improving energy efficiency.


  • Customizable Design: HTAC offers gland steam condensers in various configurations (jet, fan, atmospheric) to meet specific operational needs.


  • Durable Construction: Fabricated from carbon steel or stainless steel, our condensers are built to withstand harsh industrial environments.


  • Easy Maintenance: The modular design allows for easy access to heat exchanger tubes, ensuring simplified maintenance schedules.


Function of Gland Steam Condenser in Power Plant


In a power plant, the gland steam condenser plays a critical role in maintaining turbine efficiency. It helps prevent steam leakage through the turbine's shaft seals by condensing the gland steam and returning it to the condensate system. By maintaining a slight vacuum, the gland steam condenser ensures that excess steam is captured and does not escape into the atmosphere, contributing to both operational safety and energy conservation.



HTAC’s gland steam condensers are a reliable and efficient solution for managing turbine gland steam in power plants and other industrial applications. With customizable features and a robust design, our condensers enhance turbine efficiency and reduce maintenance costs.
