Steam Jet Syphons |
We offer a complete line of eductors
and syphons in a wide range of sizes and materials to satisfy
a variety of process
needs. We can also provide custom engineered designs for your
unique application requirements. The following is a brief overview
of our eductor and syphon product line. For more complete information
on our eductors and syphons, fill out our online application
data sheet to submit a specific information request. See

| Application |
| Eductors and syphons are ejector venturi
devices that utilize a high pressure motive fluid to lift, entrain,
and pump a lower pressure liquid. Liquid jet eductors utilize
water or other liquid as the motive fluid in various mixing
and pumping applications. Steam jet syphons use steam as the
motive source and are employed in various pumping, priming,
sampling, and heating applications. |
| |
| We can also supply tank
mixing eductors and eductors
used to convey solids with motive liquid, air or other gas. |
| |
| Advantages |
Eductors and syphons often provide
an economical alternative to conventional pumps. With no moving
parts, they eliminate the constant maintenance and down time
associated with mechanical devices. Since they do not require
elictricity, eductors and syphons are ideally suited for explosion
proof and remote installations where a mechanical pump is
not practical or cost effective. Since eductors and syphons
can be constructed from erosion or corrosion resistant materials,
they can also provide a less expensive alternative to mechanical
pumps in highly erosive or corrosive situations.
Eductors and syphons are easy to install and operate. They
are self-priming and can be used in either continuous or intermittent
operation. With the addition of simple controls, eductors
and syphons can also be easily adapted for automatic operation. |

| Construction |
| Our standard eductors and syphons
(up to 1-1/2") in size are stocked and cast in 316 stainless
steel and Carbon Steel. Units 2" and larger are typically
fabricated. Standard units consist of a one-piece body and tail
with a removable nozzle. Three motive nozzles are available
for each stocked size to satisfy a wide range of application
requirements. We can also supply eductors and syphons in other
metals such as carbon steel, Monel, Hastelloy and titanium as
well as plastics such as PVC, CPVC, polypropylene, Kynar and
Teflon. Connections are typically threaded or flanged, but other
connections such as socket or butt weld, sanitary or quick disconnects
can be supplied. |
| |
| Specialized Designs |
| We are able to provide special designs
to fulfill unique application requirements such as: |
| Sanitary |
| Sanitary eductors and syphons have
sanitary connections and a sanitary finish inside and outside
for use in food grade applications. They are available in 304
or 316 stainless steel. |
| |
| Plastic Lined Fittings (PLF) |
| PLF eductors and syphons are constructed
using thermoplastic inserts machined to fit standard lined pipe
fittings. They are typically used in highly corrosive applications
where structural integrity is also a prime concern. They are
available in Teflon, PVC, polypropylene, and Kynar. |
| |
| Ceramic Lined |
| Ceramic lined eductors and syphons offer an erosion resistant design. They consist of a removable ceramic nozzle, a fixed body and a venturi tail with a carbon steel external housing. This construction provides the structural integrity of steel with the erosion resistance of ceramic. |
| |
| Plastic |
Plastic eductors and syphons are also used in corrosive applications and are constructed in PVC, CPVC, Kynar (image at right), and polypropylene. See Larger Image Of Kynar Eductor |
| Injector Venturi Syphon |
| Injector venturi syphons are used in applications requiring the injection of a small amount of gas or liquid into a pressurized liquid stream. They can be supplied in a wide range of construction materials. |
| |
| Jet Mini Eductor |
| Jet mini eductors pump liquids or gases using pressurized
liquid or compressed air as the motive fluid. They are used
where an air or liquid motive source is available and where
high suction flow rates are not required. Jet mini eductors
are machined from bar or cast and are available in any machineable
material.
