Metcalfe Automatic Steam Injectors
FOR SUCTION LIFT APPLICATIONS WITH STEAM PRESSURES FROM 50 TO 200PSI & UP TO 250 PSI WITH WATER PRESSURE SUPPLY
Heritage Steam Supplies have entered into an agreement to work with Metcalfe Engineering to manufacture initially a full range of the Metcalfe Automatic Injectors that are compatible with the range of Penberthy Injectors. Heritage Steam Supplies are Sole Distributors for Metcalfe Injectors. The increasing demand for new injectors to meet both restoration projects and a growing 6” and 9” model market, together with new production of Metcalfe Injectors which are manufactured in the UK, enable us to provide a dedicated after sales service. Metcalfe Engineering has descended from the family roots of the firm Davies and Metcalfe, at one time one of the world’s leading brands in all types of steam injectors, as well as having agreements to make under license, copies of other brands, such as Penberthy.
HIGH PRESSURE INJECTORS
Metcalfe High Pressure Injectors are available in two body styles and 8 sizes with screwed connections from ⅜” to 2½” pipe size having capacities as given in performance table. At the same operating pressure, they use less steam than “Standard” injectors permitting the handling of warmer supply water and higher suction lift as indicated by their design range given below:
Suction Lift Applications
- Start Low: at 50 PSI steam with 3 ft lift and 74°F water
- Work High: up to 200 PSI steam pressure with 3 ft lift and 74°F water
- Lift Water: 20 ft with steam pressures from 80 to 120 psi and 74°F water
Maximum temperature of Suction Water with 3ft lift and at steam pressures as follows;
- 120°C at 120 PSI
- 115°C at 140 PSI
- 105°C at 170 PSI
- 90°C at 200 PSI
