ERGIL Pressure Vessel Expertise

Since 1982, ERGIL has specialized in designing and manufacturing custom pressure vessels and process equipment. Our 35,000 m² facility in Mersin combines advanced manufacturing technology with experienced engineering teams to deliver condensate drain tanks optimized for your specific steam system requirements.

ERGIL's in-house engineering capabilities include thermal calculations, sizing analysis, and system integration planning using proprietary design software developed over decades of project experience. This ensures your condensate tank is properly sized for maximum condensate generation rates, pump-down cycles, and surge capacity requirements.

System Design and Operation

Condensate from steam traps, heat exchanger drains, and process equipment flows by gravity into the collection tank where vapor-liquid separation occurs. ERGIL designs accommodate flash steam generation from pressure drops, with properly sized vent connections routing non-condensable gases to safe disposal or recovery systems.

Tank configurations include atmospheric vented designs for low-pressure applications or ASME-coded pressurized vessels where maintaining system pressure is critical. Integrated instrumentation packages feature redundant level measurement, high-level alarms, temperature monitoring, and automatic pump control systems.

ERGIL Manufacturing Capabilities

Advanced Fabrication: Our facility features automated welding systems, CNC plasma cutting, and dedicated halls for carbon steel and stainless steel fabrication. In-house hydrostatic testing up to 300 bar ensures leak-tight construction and code compliance.

Materials Selection: ERGIL manufactures condensate tanks in carbon steel (SA-516 Grade 70) for standard applications or stainless steel (304, 316, 316L) for corrosive condensate chemistry. All materials include full mill test reports and material traceability documentation.

Internals Design: ERGIL provides complete internal systems including demister pads for efficient vapor-liquid separation, distribution baffles to prevent turbulence, anti-vortex devices at pump suction, and custom support structures—all designed and manufactured in-house without sub-vendors.

Complete System Supply: Beyond the tank vessel, ERGIL delivers turnkey solutions including 2×100% capacity pump systems with automatic level-controlled sequencing, control panels, instrumentation packages, piping assemblies, structural supports, and skid-mounted configurations ready for rapid installation.

Energy and Cost Benefits

Recovered condensate delivers significant operational advantages. The sensible heat content reduces boiler fuel consumption by 15-25% in well-designed systems. As distilled water, recovered condensate eliminates chemical treatment costs for makeup water and reduces blowdown requirements. Environmental benefits include reduced thermal pollution, lower water withdrawal, and decreased chemical discharge.

Quality Standards

All ERGIL condensate tanks comply with international codes and standards:

• ASME Section VIII for pressurized vessels
• API 650 for atmospheric storage tanks
• ASME B31.1 for power piping connections
• ISO 9001:2015 quality management
• Full hydrostatic testing and NDT per ASME Section V

ERGIL's ASME U and S stamp certifications, combined with National Board registration, ensure your vessels meet the strictest safety and quality requirements recognized globally.
