Vertical up-flow inline moisture separators serve the same purpose as moisture separators. They help in removing moisture from the steam circulating in the machine. The difference lies in the direction of the gas.

As the name suggests, vertical up-flow inline moisture separators are compatible with steam moving in the upward direction. These separators serve the dual function of eliminating steam and other contaminants from steam to deliver unadulterated dry steam or gas.

Corrosion Allowance

Due to their function of keeping moisture at bay,the vertical up-flow inline moisture separators also suffer from degeneration caused by moisture. Thus, they are reinforced with a protective layer added to the external wall. This is known as corrosion allowance.

The corrosion allowance depends on the metal loss that the separator is expected to undergo. This is calculated by first understanding the depth of moisture penetration in the metal. The corrosion allowance is calculated on the basis of this information. The service life of the product will depend on the corrosion allowance.

Benefits of Corrosion Allowance

1. The corrosion allowance makes the vertical up-flow inline moisture separators operate seamlessly for a long period of time. This makes them extremely reliable.
2. It reduces the total number of maintenance cycles.
3. It makes the product more durable.
4. It helps in increasing the life span of the vertical up-flow inline moisture separator.

Vertical up-flow inline moisture separators are designed in a manner to allow them to seamlessly integrate into any gas system. These machines are compatible with almost all units and gases. They efficiently keep moisture and particulates out of steam moving in an upward direction. The corrosion resistance is an important factor to consider when buying a vertical up-flow inline moisture separator.
