Mosser Damper: Steam turbine isolation damper
- Ecolaire Corp., Easton, PA (United States)
Ecolaire Corp. has designed, fabricated and installed a new type of isolation damper which provides alternatives to customary new power plant design and upgrades. Through the combined efforts of two experienced product groups, Ecolaire Corp. has successfully proved that a steam turbine can be isolated from the main condenser without taking the condenser out of service or requiring auxiliary condensing equipment. Ecolaire Heat Transfer, an international supplier of steam surface condensers, and Mosser Damper, supplier of flue gas dampers for wet flue gas desulfurization applications and other harsh environments have combined their technologies and field experiences to develop a guillotine damper which allows personnel to access the interior of the steam turbine while the main condenser continues to operate. The cooperation between product groups was critical in achieving a design for the application which addresses the varying equipment arrangements and operating conditions.
