Pure steam is used for sterilizing tanks, pipelines, and filling machines. The PureSteam pure steam generator produces sterile , pyrogen-free steam , ideally suited for SIP ( Sterilization-in-Place ). Depending on requirements, the system can also be designed to generate pure steam for direct injection into the product.


 Application
 Pure steam for sterilizing:
 
 
 Tanks
 
 
 Pipelines
 
 
 bottling machines



 How Puresteam generates pure steam
 For pure steam generation, the feedwater enters a tube bundle heat exchanger with an expansion chamber above it:
 
 
 In the tube bundle heat exchanger, the pretreated water is heated and steam is generated.
 
 
 The tubes of the heat exchanger are connected to the expansion chamber – this serves as a separation column .
 
 
 The chamber is equipped with a demistor to produce pyrogen-free vapor.
 
 
 After entering the expansion chamber, the steam continues to move upwards in the column.
 
 
 Due to gravity and the special column design, unevaporated water droplets fall back into the lower part of the chamber and are separated from the vapor.
 
 
 Since droplets can contain impurities such as endotoxins , this droplet separation is crucial to prevent them from being carried along.



 Quality control (optional)
 
 
 The conductivity of the pure steam condensate can optionally be monitored as an important quality characteristic.



 Expandability (depending on requirements)
 
 
 If necessary, PureSteam can be expanded into a multi-stage distillation system by adding additional columns.
 
 
 This makes the combined simultaneous production of ultrapure water and ultrapure steam possible.
 
 
 A pure steam distribution system for SIP applications is available upon request.
