    HP flush box

    The laboratory team has designed the HP flush box with the diameter of 800 mm and the height of 2600 mm.

    Design parameters of the flush box: pressure – 0.69 MPa. Temperature – 200 °C, operating parameters: pressure – 0.12 MPa. Temperature – 104 °C.

    In 2014, the flush box was manufactured by the Non-Standard Equipment Department of NPO CKTI JSC and delivered to the Severnaya Cogeneration Plant-21 of the Nevsky branch of JSC TGC-1 (Unit No. 1), passed the tests, obtained the Certificate of Conformity No. TS RU C-RU.AY04.B/00109 Series RU No. 0219465 and commissioned.

    In 2016, the flush box was delivered as a part of the Unit No. 2 of Severnaya Cogeneration Plant-21 and commissioned. Also, the order for the production of Unit No. 3 was made.
