Steam compressor that recovers low pressure steam at higher pressure for reuse
All too often, low-pressure waste steam and flash steam are simply released to atmosphere instead of being reused. This can be an unhealthy practice, since losing steam often means a loss of useable energy.
TLV’s Steam Compressor uses high efficiency ejector technology to recover and reuse this excess steam, leading to lower energy consumption and fuel costs. Incorporating a steam compressor is often a great choice to increase efficiency by reducing the need to vent steam to atmosphere.

Benefits and Features
- Reuses energy from excess steam by increasing it to useable pressure.
- Features patented, highly efficient steam compression technology.
- Can be purchased together with a condensate recovery package; condensate is first reduced to atmospheric pressure, causing it to flash into steam. The steam is then pressurized for reuse.
- Features a pressure reducing valve with a built-in separator and steam trap, maintaining dry motive steam and ensuring long-term high efficiency.
- Requires no electricity and is suitable for explosion-proof areas.
Recovery of Steam Even at Atmospheric Pressure
Highly efficient steam compression system that combines a steam ejector, a pressure reducing valve, and a built-in cyclone separator. Capable of recovering steam even at atmospheric pressure.*
*Requires the use of a COS or CV-COS control valve.
Ideal for Explosion-proof Areas
Requires no electricity and is suitable for explosion-proof areas. *
*Requires the use of a COS control valve.
Application Areas
- Removing vapor clouds above tanks of boiling water
- Pressurizing and reutilizing flash steam from tanks
- Pressurizing and reutilizing excess steam used in power generation
- Pressurizing and reutilizing low pressure steam generated after use in processes
