ShortAbsorption Manifolds Steam absorption system for use in air handling units and duct systems
Why SAM-e? • Short absorption distances are required • Easy to install • Lower cost & easier to install than multiple LS distributors • No maintenance required • Can be used with atmospheric steam or pressure (boiler) steam • Your AHU manufacturers like it!
Why Insulate? SAM-e Insulated Option • Reduce condensate losses and increase efficiency • 1000 to 1100 BTU + Liquid Water = 1 lb Steam • 8.35 lbs Steam = 1 US Gallon Wasted Water • 1 US Gallon Wasted Water = Over 8000 BTU Wasted Energy
Why Insulate? SAM-e Insulated Option • Air stream heat gain • Low humidifier output • Low system efficiency
Benefits of Insulation SAM-e Insulated Option • Thermal Resistance, R = 0.66 ft-ºF-hr/Btu • Up to 70% condensate reduction • 120°F max surface temperature • Reduce heat gain • Improved efficiency

Principle of Operation Insulated Steam Tube Cross Section Cool Airflow Stainless steel shielding ¼” Air-gap Foam strips Hot Steam
Other Benefits • Negligible effect on static pressure drop • Shedding of dust and dirt • Durability • Maintenance & inspection free • Easily retrofitted (Units purchased after July 2008)
Competitor “X” • Claims R = 0.56 ft-ºF-hr/Btu • Actual R = 0.23 ft-ºF-hr/Btu • PVDF Foam Insulation • Tubes only • Easily damaged • Plastic Nozzles • Fall out
