Preventing steam tube damage in combined cycle attemperator control schemes and other flow applications

A major problem occurs in the HRSG during hot and cold restarts. Attemperator spray systems require tight control and a high degree of reliability. If a block valve in the attemperator spray loop fails, premature tube failures may be inevitable (maintenance issue), excessive downtime follows (production issue), and there could be a risk for a potential hazard (safety issue).

To avoid these issues, Flexim has created a unique non-intrusive solution to detect liquid in these high-temperature, high-pressure lines. The ability to detect leaks in the block valve prevents rapid cooling which leads to tube failure.

This webinar will facilitate a solution that has been proven to prevent tube failure without the need to shut the system down and can be installed while the unite is in operation meaning no costly downtime or extra work during an outage.
