PSSCP Pure Steam Sample Condenser

Product catalog summary
Overview: The PS-SC Pure Steam Sample Condenser is designed for efficient sampling of Clean Steam (CS) and Water For Injection (WFI) while maintaining a sterile environment. It is wall panel mounted and can operate with either mains or chilled water as the cooling medium. The system is suitable for pharmaceutical and purity systems applications.
Installation: The installation requires a continuous steam duty valve near the steam manifold. Flexible silicone hoses (not supplied) are used to connect the isolation valve on the main steam to the heat exchanger and the cooling medium to the heat exchanger's shell side. A regulating valve controls the sample medium flow, and a drain valve is recommended for removing residual cooling water before sterilization.
Features: Constructed from AISI 316L stainless steel, the condenser is self-draining and fully sterilizable in place (SIP). It is designed for wall panel mounting and is suitable for PS pure steam and WFI systems.
Operating Conditions: The maximum working pressure is 4 barg at 151°C for steam and 6 barg for cooling water. The system is designed for pure steam sampling, point of use cooling/sampling, and in-line conductivity monitoring.
Capacities: The condenser can handle approximately 10 kg/h of steam condensate at 100°C and 30 lt/h of water from 85°C to 30°C, based on a cooling water temperature of 18°C and a flow rate of 10 lt/min.
Standards: The heat exchanger complies with the PED directive 97/23/CE under the SEP "Sound Engineering Practice".
Usage Instructions:
  • Sterilization in Place (SIP): Ensure connections are correct, open the cooling water drain valve, and slowly open the steam inlet valve for sterilization. Close valves in sequence after the cycle.
  • Sampling: Open the cooling water inlet valve, then the product knob, and steam inlet valve. After sampling, close valves in reverse order and disconnect the sample bottle for analysis.
Product Specifications:
  • Materials: AISI 316L stainless steel for tubes, valves, and fittings; PTFE for clamp gaskets.
  • Dimensions and Weight: 800 x 400 x h max. 240 mm; empty weight approximately 000 kg.
  • Connections: Steam: ½” clamp BS 4825; Cooling water: ¾” clamp BS 4825.
  • Supply Included: All valves and parts shown in the picture/sketch.
  • Available Accessories: Silicone Platinum Cured APSW-P flexible hose for connection.

PSSCP Pure Steam Sample Condenser-1

Quality System Certified ISO 9001 PSSCP Pure Steam Sample Condenser Rev.0.doc Page 1 of 2 PS-SC Pure Steam Sample Condenser PS-SC Pure Steam Sample Condenser This PS-SC wall panel mounted is designed to allow Clean Steam (CS) and Water For Injection (WFI) samples to be taken quickly and easily whilst maintaining a sterile testing environment. This wall panel is ideal to be connect at the sampling point and can be operated with either mains or chilled water as the cooling medium. Availability of aseptic sample valve allow fine control of sample flow during testing The PS-SC can be sterilized in situ-on-line, thus ensuring continuity of samples regardless of testing frequency, ideal for fluids in pharmaceutical and purity systems applications. Installation Where steam is the sample medium, a valve (1) excluded from supply, suitable for continuous steam duty must be installed adjacent to steam manifold. First of all the isolation valve on main steam (1) (or on the use point) should be connected with the valve on the top of heat exchanger (4) (tube side) by the first flexible silicone hose clamped not included in the supply; same operation for cooling medium that should be connected with the valve (5) on the lower body connection of heat exchanger (shell side) by the second flexible silicone hose clamped that which is not supplied with the wall panel unit. The medium to be condensed/cooled passes through the tube side and typically a regulating valve (2) will be used to throttle the sample medium flow. When exit from heat exchanger, the condensate flush in the SSB sample bottle that can be disconnected and removed, when sample is finish, ready for analysis. Cooling medium is channelled countercurrent inside the shell to ensure maximum efficiency; tipically mains or chilled water; in order to allow the flow of cooling medium to be controlled during testing an isolation valve (5) should be included. A drain valve (9) also should be included between the cooling water isolation valve (5) and heat exchanger to allow residual cooling water to be drained from the shell prior to sterilization. The cooling water outlet has to be connected to the waste by a flexible silicone hose and must be always vented to atmosphere free of obstructions or isolation valves to prevent any build up in the shell of the heat exchanger unit. Operating conditions:  Aisi 316L – 1.4404 stainless steel construction, suitable for PS pure steam and WFI systems  Self-draining design, eliminates possibility of sample retention  Fully sterilizable in place (SIP)  Wall panel mounted design Typical applications: Capacities (approximate):  Pure Steam sampling  Point of use cooling / sampling  In-line conductivity monitoring  Steam: 10 kg/h of condensate at 100°C  Water: 30 lt/h of water from 85°C to 30°C based on a cooling water temperature of 18°C and flow rate of 10 lt/min. : steam at 4 barg at 151°C : cooling water at 6 barg @ Note – pressure rating may exceed that of clamps connections Standards: Heat exchanger according to PED directive 97/23/CE are CE compliant under the SEP “Sound Engineering Practice” (Article 3 – Paragraph 3) Aerre Inox s.r.l. 26010 FIESCO Via Gerola n.4 -CREMONA- Italy Tel. +39.0374.370828 Fax +39.0374.370833 e-mail : info@aerrei

Quality System Certified ISO 9001 PSSCP Pure Steam Sample Condenser Rev.0.doc Page 2 of 2 HOW TO USE Sterilization in place (SIP) Prior to testing or at periodic intervals it may be appropriate to sterilize the unit to ensure that sample integrity is maintained during testing. Caution: The unit will become hot during operation and sterilization; personnel should be protected against contact with the installation with appropriate insulation. Prior to start, to ensure that the sample bottle connection labeled “IN“ is connected with the heat exchanger and connection “OUT“ is connected with the steam...
