Basic Design Criteria Required to Size and Price Bruest HotCat Pipeline Heaters
- Existing Pipeline Size and Pressure Rating
- Design Pressure desired for HotCat exchanger (Ansi 600 etc)
- Gas Flow Rates ( Min/Max) and Flowing Pressures (Min/Normal/Max,) Please indicate flow rates with
applicable range of operating pressures
- Are Min/Max Gas Flow rates based on existing conditions or projections? State period of projections
- System Pressure Drop due to regulation
- Inlet Gas Temperature (Min/Normal)
- Required Gas Temperature (after regulation)
- Gas Specifications (gas analysis if possible, but at least specific gravity)
- Fuel Gas Source (To be taken from HotCat outlet?, or customer’s existing fuel gas system?)
- Fuel Gas Meter, required as part of HotCat fuel train?
- Available Electrical Supply Voltage
Note; Manual HotCats require electric supply only to start zones. Manual HC-50 and HC-75 may
utilize 12 VDC from portable source, Manual HC-100, HC125, HC150 units require AC voltage,
portable or permanent power. All automatics require permanent AC supply.
- Classification of Area in which heater is to be installed. (Class 1, Div 1, or Class 1 Div 2)
- Heater Control desired (Manual/Automatic)
- Previously Calculated Duty if known (will be confirmed from above data)
-
Project Name and Location
-
When is the Heater Required? (Standard HotCat delivery is typically 10-12 weeks)
