Description

Fisher DFA Variable Geometry Desuperheater

The Fisher DFA (Desuperheater with Flexible Architecture) integrates a water control element with a variable geometry, mechanically atomized, self-contained desuperheater to handle moderate to high flow variation. It is installed via a flanged connection on the side of an NPS 8 or larger pipeline.

Key Features

•Custom-designed bodies with a probe-style desuperheater and multiple trim styles to fit a wide range of piping and application needs.

•AF nozzle technology delivers an optimized spray pattern for fast mixing and vaporization across a wide operating range.

•Service-friendly nozzle design—nozzles can be removed/maintained/replaced without replacing the whole unit.

•Anti-vibration nozzle mount engineered to reduce excitation from vortex shedding and flow-induced vibration.

•Forged construction and integral thermal liner to help reduce risk of thermal shock when cooling water is introduced.
