Neptune SC-316 Boiler Sample Cooler | 3500 PSI | In Stock

The SC-316 is a high-efficiency, industrial-grade Neptune heat exchanger designed for the safe collection of high-temperature boiler water and steam samples. By cooling process fluids to a safe handling temperature, the SC-316 prevents "sample flashing" (evaporation), ensuring that chemical concentrations remain intact for precise laboratory analysis of pH, conductivity, and inhibitor levels.

Premium 316 Stainless Steel Engineering: Unlike economy coolers that use inferior alloys, the SC-316 features a rugged, all-welded construction where both the internal coil and the external shell are made of premium 316 Stainless Steel. This provides maximum resistance to corrosion, pitting, and thermal stress. The non-removable coil design ensures a completely leak-proof boundary between your high-pressure sample and the cooling water.

Technical Specifications:

• Part Number: SC-316

• Coil Material (High-Pressure Side): 316 Stainless Steel

• Shell Material (Coolant Side): 316 Stainless Steel

• Maximum Coil Pressure: 3,500 PSI

• Maximum Shell Pressure: 250 PSI

• Common Applications:

  • Boiler Blowdown Sampling: Safely cools high-temperature blowdown water for routine testing.

  • Steam Gallery Monitoring: Prevents sample flashing during high-pressure steam testing.

  • Water Treatment Control: Ensures accurate pH, conductivity, and chemical inhibitor readings for industrial cooling loops.

Professional Safety and Compliance: The SC-316 is the industry standard for power plants, industrial mechanical rooms, and large-scale HVAC facilities. It allows operators to comply with safety protocols by reducing sample temperatures to a safe touch-range (typically under 100°F). Its heavy-duty 316SS shell is built to withstand the humid and corrosive environments typical of boiler blowdown stations and steam galleries.
