Direct steaming chambers

tip PAR-D

In direct steaming chambers, steam from an external source- steam boiler, is introduced by a perforated stainless steel tubing (steam distributor) directly into the steaming chamber. The steam distributor can be installed above ground or submerged in a water channel. The steam from the boiler condenses and is irretrievably lost during the steaming process. The steaming process in this model of steaming chamber is simple, but with a higher consumption of water and energy for steaming than in indirect steaming chambers.

 

The steaming process is conducted automatically, and the steaming regimes are based on the requirements of users, experience and cooperation with the profession.

CHARACTERISTICS:

  • Steaming all types of freshly cut wood (max 3 days)
  • Steam capacity: from 15-50 m3 net per cycle
  • Working medium: wet steam, pressure 0,5 bar
  • Standard steam room width: 5/6/7 m
  • Standard steam room depth: 3/4/5 m
  • Stacking height: 3.5 / 4.1 m
  • Steaming chambers can be constructed according to the customer’s request.
  • Steaming process guided automatically (PD-01 controller). Each steaming chamber has its own controller
  • Remote monitoring and control on a PC using Nigos Parionica software, via the RS485 standard
