Steam Ejectors

Transvac Steam Ejectors for creating vacuum across many industries. From coarse vacuum single-stage ejectors to multi-stage systems producing vacuum levels up to 25 microns Hg abs. ZIRCO is proud to represent Transvac as the authorized distributor for Western Canada.

Transvac Steam Ejectors

Transvac Steam Ejectors (also known as Steam Jet Ejectors or Steam Eductors) are used for creating vacuum across many industries. ZIRCO delivers these proven Transvac solutions to Western Canada's industrial operators.

Applications Range: From coarse vacuum single-stage Steam Ejectors, such as rapid evacuation Ejectors (also known as 'Hoggers'), up to 5-stage Steam Jet Ejector Systems fully packaged to produce vacuum levels of up to 25 microns Hg abs.

Energy Efficient: Modern, energy efficient Steam Jet Ejector Systems offer many advantages when compared with other vacuum producing systems, such as mechanical Liquid Ring Vacuum Pumps, Rotary Vane or Screw type Vacuum Pumps. Steam Jet Ejectors can often utilise surplus motive steam sources on site and need no additional energy.

Two Ranges of Steam Ejectors

Standard Steam Ejectors

Standard Steam Ejectors for non-corrosive applications, such as Power Generation.

Materials of Construction

Stainless Steel and Carbon Steel are most commonly used for Standard Steam Ejector applications.

Corrosion Resistant Steam Ejectors

For corrosive applications, such as Fine Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals.

Materials of Construction

Corrosion resistant Steam Ejectors can be offered in exotic materials including Hastelloy, Titanium, Graphite and PTFE.

Steam Jet Ejector Packaged Systems

Transvac design and manufacture a huge variety of custom-designed Steam Ejector Systems in both Standard and Corrosion Resistant materials. From single-stage Steam Ejectors to fully packaged multi-stage systems, incorporating Direct and Indirect Contact Condensers.

Combination Systems: Steam Jet Ejector / Liquid Ring Vacuum Pump

Transvac Ejectors can be combined with mechanical Liquid Ring Vacuum Pumps into a compact vacuum system. Combination systems are available with one, two or three stages of Steam Ejectors combined with single or two stage Liquid Ring Vacuum Pumps and Condensers (Direct or Indirect Contact).

For these systems the Liquid Ring Pump is very effective at rapidly producing a coarse vacuum with the Steam Ejectors creating higher vacuum levels. These low-level, skid mounted systems are versatile in handling both wet and dry loads.

Condensers

Transvac offers a full range of Direct and Indirect Contact Condensers for either barometric or low-level operation.

Indirect/Surface Contact

Shell & Tube, Plate or Graphite Block - used when the condensed fluid and cooling medium (usually water) must be kept separate.

Direct Contact

Ring & Disc or Spray type - used when mixing of the condensed fluid and cooling medium is acceptable.
