Intermittent Boiler Blowoff, Hydronic S.R.V's, and other Process Blowdown The modern and efficient way of handling boiler intermittent blowdown. Separators have also been used for hydronic safety relief valve discharges, deaerator overflows, autoclave draining, and other high flow pressurized condensate to drain applications. The smaller diameter takes up less space then a traditional blowoff tank while providing an efficient separation of flash steam and condensate.
Flash Tanks for Handling Condensate and Flash Steam Recovery Penn Flash Separators use a tangential inlet and cyclonic action to instantly separate steam and condensate. Our Flash separators are smaller in size and more efficient then traditional flash tanks. Because of the unique smaller size they are less expensive then traditional flash tanks. The clean steam can be returned to a lower pressure saving valuable BTU's and makeup water. Return on investment can be in a matter of weeks. Easy to use flash steam and selector charts assure proper sizing of a Flash Separator for your condensate requirements. Special tank designs are also available. Penn Separator has over forty years of experience building pressure vessels to ASME Code. All Penn Flash Separators are constructed to the ASME Code Sec. VIII.
Penn Inline Separators create a centrifugal spinning action that separates out liquid entrainment droplets in steam, air, or other gases. Each are Inline type designed to fit in existing piping.
When steam air and other gases are vented to atmosphere at high velocities noise is created. Typically the higher the velocity the louder the noise level. Penn makes two models of exhaust silencers to reduce noise levels.
Complete packaged heat recovery system in a smaller single vertical tank design. Ten different Pre-Engineered systems for small to medium sized boilers with continuous blowdown of 1 to 30 gpm and make-up capacities of 9 to 150 gpm in a self-contained unit. This system can provide up to 90% heat recovery from the continuous blowdown.

Cannon has obtained exclusive rights to the technology for the Ultramizer from the Gas Technology Institute (GTI). The Ultramizer's technology can be used on any clean fuel boiler to raise the efficiency to near 95% and also allows the return of clean water to the system.
A unique economizer designed to recover your exhaust stack energy and save you thousands of dollars each year. Cannon Feedwater Heaters pay for themselves by reducing your fuel bills. We will provide you with an estimated payback period when you inquire, and it is normally less than one year.
In application the two are one-in-the-same, since they both recovery heat from an exhaust stream and return it to a colder water stream. The difference is the temperature range in which the economizer is operated. Our unit may look identical in outward appearance, but can be used in a condensing application if originally design to do so.
Economizers have been proven money saving concepts for nearly 100 years. Now we can extend the efficiency of the traditional rugged Feedwater Heater style economizer, with less impact on your boiler room than the standard installation. Cannon's On-Demand unit now converts waste gas heat to free energy for your process, with minimal effect on any other piece of equipment in your facility.
Much is being advertised these days concerning new equipment to boost industrial steel boiler efficiency to the 90% range, something that was unheard of decades ago. But all new equipment may not be need to achieve this goal.
Cannon economizers are custom designed for optimum heat recovery and service life for your unique application. Cannon will design your economizer for gas, oil, coal, wood, or special waste gas streams. These units are available in open lattice or bulkhead tubesheet designs, and Cannon manufactures the nickel-brazed helical finned tubes used in all of our economizers.
The vent condenser is a plume abatement device that provides a visual improvement, as well as reducing water/ice or corrosion near the steam vent. Vented steam is directed into the unit and condensed by cold water, and energy is continuously recovered at a rate of 970btu's for every pound of steam. This hot water and clean distilled condensate are then ready for use elsewhere in your operation.
A steam accumulator is a smart method to reduce severe boiler loading and cycling, when short- duration, high flow steam is required. An accumulator can reduce the fuel consumption and increase the service life of your boiler by stabilizing its operating conditions.
Cannon has full capabilities to design, build, rebuild, or repair your heat exchanger. We are experts in our ability to solve customers' problems through innovative design and material solutions.
