SYPHON (SY)

Syphons are made from durable, corrosion-resistant materials that can withstand high-pressure and high-temperature environments. Common materials include:

• Stainless Steel: Provides excellent resistance to corrosion and is ideal for high-pressure applications.
• Carbon Steel: A cost-effective option for systems where corrosion resistance is less critical.
• Alloy Steel: Used for extreme temperature or highly corrosive environments.
• Brass: Used in systems where the environment is less harsh and for lighter applications.

Syphons are available in a variety of connection sizes to meet the needs of different systems. The most common connection sizes are:

• 1/4 inch
• 3/8 inch
• 1/2 inch
• 3/4 inch
• 1 inch

Syphons are usually installed in a U-shaped configuration in the pipeline, positioned in such a way that they allow for the effective capture and transfer of steam or other gases while preventing backflow. Proper sealing and fitting of the connections are crucial for ensuring no leaks and proper functioning.

Yes, syphons made from stainless steel and alloy steels are suitable for high-temperature systems, such as those in power generation plants or industrial processes where temperatures can exceed 200°C or 300°C.

Yes, syphons can be customized in terms of size, material, and design to meet specific operational requirements or system constraints. Customization may also include special connection types or higher pressure/temperature ratings.

Yes, syphons are built according to industry standards such as ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) and ANSI (American National Standards Institute), ensuring their reliability and performance across various applications.

Yes, syphons should be installed with proper sealing to prevent leaks and ensure the effective capture and transfer of fluids. Ensuring that the syphon is positioned correctly and the connections are tight is essential for safe and reliable operation.
