Air Headers & Condensate Pots
Air headers distribute instrument air from one supply to many points, and condensate pots protect instruments on steam and vapour lines by holding a steady condensate seal. We fabricate both to the customer’s layout from seamless pipe, fit our own valves, and test every unit before it leaves the factory.
Air headers
1" to 3" NB, 2 to 20 outlets
Condensate pots
3" to 6" pipe
Materials
Stainless, carbon and alloy steel
Testing
100% hydrostatic and pneumatic
Key features
Built to your layout: number of outlets, straight or staggered, inlet and drain to suit
Fitted with our own needle or ball valves on every outlet
Seamless pipe to ASTM A312 and ASTM A106 Gr. B, with electropolished, galvanised, epoxy or zinc-rich finishes
100% hydrostatically and pneumatically tested, with periodic radiography of welds
