The accumulated experience of the entire Dunham Organization is put at the disposal of the Heating Ventilating and Air Conditioning Engineer. This cooperation is available for Modernization Work, as well as for new construction in industrial, commercial, housing and other projects.
The Dunham Sub-atmospheric Steam Heating System maintains desirable tempera tures throughout a building by automatic cdntrol of both steam temperature and steam volume.
The system is a simple two-pipe system in which all the essentials of circulation, distribution and control are co-ordinated. Control of the temperature of the steam is accomplished by controlling the pressure or vacuum of the steam in the supply piping and radiators to balance exactly the heat input with building-heat-loss.
The Dunham Sub-atmospheric Sys tem distributes a varying supply of heat equally, automatically and continuously through the heated space. Desirable building temperatures are automatically maintained under varying weather con ditions. A positive continuous circulation is maintained as a fundamental function of the system. This maintains unusually constant temperature levels throughout the building.
The Control is Fully Automatic. The RT (Resistance Thermometer) Con trol Equipment, which is an integral part
of the System, is fully automatic. Begin ning with a maximum radiator heat output obtained by steam circulation at a pressure of 2 pounds and a temperature of 218 F or
more as required, the output is progres sively reduced according to the demands of the weather, by a reduction in the rate of steam admission to the system, which automatically causes a reduction in steam pressure and temperature so that steam may be circulated at varying temperatures down to about 133 F. ... Further reduction in heat-output is obtained by partial filling of radiators with sub-atmospheric steani until the point is reached at which the need for heat ceases and the supply of steam is completely shut off. The distribution of the steam supply is automatically main
tained under all variations in supply by the co-ordinated functioning of the Traps, Pump, Differential Controller and Regu lating Orifices at radiator inlets.
