Steam Distributors

In pharmaceutical and laboratory complexes, steam distributors are integrated into engineering systems to implement SIP/CIP procedures and maintain the required air humidity in cleanrooms. These devices are used within ventilation and air conditioning systems to ensure microclimatic parameters comply with technological regulations.
Construction and Technical Features
A typical steam distributor consists of the following components:
-
Manifold Body: Made of AISI 304/316L stainless steel with a polished internal surface.
-
Distribution Pipes: Featuring adjustable cross-sections for flow balancing.
-
Integrated Control Valves: Equipped with pneumatic or electric actuators.
-
Condensate Drainage System: Including automatic steam traps.
-
Thermal Insulation: Applied to the body to minimize heat loss.
The design allows for the connection of measuring instruments: thermometers, pressure gauges, and flow meters. Configurations can be fan-assisted for forced distribution or linear for natural steam circulation.

The equipment ensures uniformity of steam supply, minimal hydraulic losses, and resistance to condensate formation and mineral scale buildup. Custom manufacturing is available for specific project parameters: working pressure up to 16 bar, temperatures up to 200°C, and a number of outlet pipes ranging from 2 to 20.
Regulatory Compliance
The design and manufacture of steam distributors are carried out in accordance with:
-
GOST R ISO 14644-1:2017 — Air cleanliness classification and cleanroom equipment requirements.
-
GOST R ISO 14644-4:2002 — Design, construction, and commissioning of cleanrooms.
-
GOST R 52249-2009 (GMP) — Rules for the production and quality control of medicinal products.
-
SP 158.13330.2014 — Buildings and premises of medical organizations. Design rules.
-
GOST R 56638-2015 — CLEANROOMS. Ventilation and air conditioning. General requirements.
Compliance with these standards guarantees that the equipment meets validation and qualification requirements within pharmaceutical manufacturing frameworks.
