Spirax Sarco releases Steam Jet Thermocompressors, energy saving devices that compress low–pressure steam to a higher acceptable pressure for additional applications. The unit is simple in construction and consists of three fundamental components: motive steam nozzle, suction body and a diffuser. The compact and lightweight design means it’s easy to install into a pipeline and enables overhead installations. A wide range of materials are available to suit process requirements to ensure maximum operating efficiency including stainless steel, carbon steel, titanium, chrome and molybdenum.

Steam Jet Thermocompressors have no moving or rotating parts. Minimal maintenance is required indicating the units can be installed in remote or inaccessible locations, according to the company.

Steam Jet Thermocompressors comply with the requirements of ASME B31.3 mechanical design standards.
