TO IMPROVE STEAM SUPPLY
To meet operating demands for Qtv.adequate supply, of process steam the engineers of Canada Packers, Ltd., Toronto! installed this' new over* the-top steam line. Made up of 550 lineal feet of 8 inch pipe, It is designed to cariy 80,000 pounds of steam per hour at 150 psi, 3wF.
The line connects to a supply system running underground and .rises vertically.', to form a .huge expansion loop supported on the roof, licsired flexibility is obtained by shaping the',structure to conform with roof contour and changes of roof elevation. The vertical pipe tangents absorb horizontal movement of the line due to expan*' sion, while horizontal tangents perform a similarfunction with respect to vertical movement.
As specified, Ric-wiL prefabricated, pre-insulated Coppcrclad Piping was furnished in 21 foot tan
gents and elbow units, minimizing field erection costs. Ric-wiL sub-assemblies were scientifically designed to allow for pipe expansion and con traction, thus adding to the flexural properties
of the system.
The Ric-wiL Copperclad Piping employed in this installation combines pipe, insulation, high tem perature asphalt and spiral wrappings of asbestos felt and copper sheeting into thermally efficient units which are corrosion resistant and fully protected against the elements. This Ric-wiL construction is positive assurance of outstanding durability and long life with minimum upkeep and maintenance cost.
