Jet Compressors are a type of ejector that use a jet of high-pressure gas as an operating medium to entrain a low-pressure gas, mix the two, and discharge at an intermediate pressure. Gases can be steam, air, propane, and others.
Jet Compressors are flanged and have no regulating spindle. The pressure connection is threaded, the suction and discharge connections are flanged, and the nozzle is threaded into the body for easy removal and maintenance. The Jet Compressor has all threaded connections and is equipped with a manually-controlled spindle which is used specifically when the unit operates at a steady load but where flexibility of the nozzle orifice is desired to compensate for changes in operating conditions.
Advantages
Jet Compressors have no moving parts. They can be manufactured from any machinable or castable material. Large units can be fabricated from any materials which are available in plate and are weldable. They can be installed in any position. Due to velocities involved, good mixing of dissimilar gases is obtained. Jet Compressors can replace mixing valves and at the same time boost pressure which replaces a compressor. Jet Compressors can reduce boiler steam demand or enhance the capacity of an existing boiler.
Automatic Jet Compressors can be used in applications operating over a range of pressure and differential pressure. Automatic Jet Compressors may be utilized wherever available energy is being lost through reducing valves; such as high pressure steam reduced and desuperheated for process use and mixing of gases without use of mechanical compressors. Diaphragm and piston operators use any standard split or full range, electric, electronic, or pneumatic instrument signal. The control can be activated by temperature, pressure, flow, or suction to motive gas ratio.
