Paul Mueller Company PyroPure Pure Steam Generators The Mueller PyroPure P7000 Series Advantage Mueller PyroPure pure steam generators are capable of producing pyrogen-free pure steam that, when condensed, meets all U.S. Pharmacopoeia (USP) requirements for use in autoclaves, critical area humidification, and routine steamin-place (SIP) sterilization. Feedwater enters the system and flows through two level control valves and then into the tube side of the blowdown cooler. In the blowdown cooler, heat is transferred between the feedwater on the tube side and the blowdown exiting the system through...

System Components Evaporator. The natural circulation design of the PyroPure double-tubesheet evaporator ensures maximum surface wetting, eliminating the hot, dry areas that lead to the stress cracking associated with other designs. The tube bundle creates a large heat transfer surface that vaporizes feedwater almost instantly to allow the unit to respond to large loads. Mueller PyroPure pure steam generators have a fully drainable external evaporator, eliminating the need for the excess headroom required for evaporator removal with other designs. All surfaces that come into contact with pure...

Paul Mueller Company PyroPure Multiple-Effect Stills The Mueller PyroPure P6000 Series is Built to Last Mueller PyroPure multiple-effect stills (MES) are the simplest, most reliable means of producing pyrogen-free waterfor-injection (WFI) that meets all U.S. Pharmacopoeia requirements. The MES is designed with efficiency in mind. Because the system recovers the latent heat of vaporization occurring within its own process to heat feedwater and uses feedwater as its primary source of cooling, the MES is an energy and money-saving model of ingenuity. Due to the absence of moving parts, the PyroPure...
