Prevent condenser tube leaks -

Ensign Debris Screen Type Venturi Inserts dramatically reduce the incidence of condenser tube leaks occurring in a power station main condenser

A UK power station was experiencing large numbers of tube leaks resulting in significant loss of efficiency and expensive down time for plugging of the leaking condenser tubes. The failure mechanism was established as increased water velocity around partial tube blockages. The incidence of tube leaks was found to drop by 42% after fitting Ensign Debris Screen Venturi Inserts.
