The Injector
ADVANTAGES
The injector offers definite advantages over me-
chanically operated pumps when cold water
make-up is used to feed boilers. Some of these
advantages are:
Warm water is fed into the boiler without the
necessity of preheating the water.
It is not dependent upon an outside source of
power.

2
Unit is compact, has no mechanically operated
parts and requires no foundation or floor space.
First cost and maintenance are low.
Operating steam is condensed and returned to the
boiler resulting in a thermal efficiency of nearly
100%.
Dependable in operation.

Operating Principle of Penberthy Automatic Injectors
When steam supply valve is opened, steam passes
through steam jet into suction chamber, proceeds
through suction jet and out of the overflow. Steam,
which attains a velocity of approximately 2500 ft per
second as it leaves the steam jet, entrains the air in
suction chamber and creates a vacuum.
The vacuum created in suction chambe
r
begins to draw in water from supply line.
The water is now entrained by the steam
and a high velocity mixture of water and
steam passes through the suction jet and
out of the overflow.
The Injector may be defined as a b oiler feeding pump,
utilizing the velocity and condensation of a jet of steam
from the boiler to lift and force into the same boiler a jet
o water many times the weight of the original jet of
steam.
Although they are generally considered as boiler feed
pumps, injectors are also often used on other applica-
tions where hot water under high pressure is desired.

The Company
Since its organization in 1886, the Penberthy Manu-
facturing Co.* has been well known as a leading
manufacturer of injectors. As a result of its superior
basic injector design, continued improvements in
performance, manufacturing methods and standard
of quality, Penberthy leadership in the injector field
has been universally recognized for many years.
Penberthy injectors and service parts may be
purchased from any one of the thousands of jobber
and dealer representatives in all principal cities and
countries of the world. Their knowledge of the vari-
ous applications of the Penberthy injector, covering
many years of experience, assures prospective users
that they will obtain intelligent engineering sales
service.
Automatic Restarting
All Penberthy injectors are of the automatic restarting type.
If the established flow of water from an injector to the boiler
is interrupted temporarily by t he admission of air into the
suction line or by a jolt causing the overflow valve to open,
the injector will automatically reestablish flow without the
necessity of regulating any valves.
Feeds Warm Water to Boiler
Penberthy injectors feed water into the boiler at a tempera-
ture of from 130°F to 212°F depending upon the steam pres-
sure and t emperature of the supply water. By throttling the
water supply line, feed water temperatures up to 212°F can
be obtained under most conditions of operation.
Design
Injectors are designed so as to give well-balanced operation
against the greatest possible range of steam pressure, water
tem
p
erature and suction lift and to maintain satisfactor
y
PENBERTHY AUTOMATIC INJECTORS
performance for a long period of service. Designs are t he
result of years of experience with injector applications.
Injector connections have uni on tailpipes permitting quick
removal from the line.
all parts are easily removed for cleaning or replacement and
are precision made to assure interchangeability in the field.
Workmanship is highest quality. Years of manufacturing has
resulted in the training of skilled craftsmen and the develop-
ment of advanced production methods.
Material
Injectors are of all bronze construction with special bronze
alloys being used for suction and delivery jets to resist wear.
Inspection and Testing
All injectors are tested at the factory on actual boiler installa-
tions, assuring that injectors will meet all performance claims
as specified for the various models.
When the amount of steam and water reach the proper
proportion, the steam gradually condenses as the mix-
ture advances through injector. Upon reaching deliver
j
et
p
arallel the mixture is full
y
condensed.
The energy contained in the water passing through delivery jet is sufficient to
build up a pressure, greater than the boiler pressure, causing water to flow
through the discharge check valve into the boiler. When flow into the boiler is
established the overflow valve closes automatically and prevents the entrance
of air which would disrupt operation of injector. Total operating cycle requires
only a few seconds.

Applications
Injectors are installed as auxiliary equipment on pow er
boilers, package steam generators, locomotive boilers
and heating boilers that are required by many industries
such as:
Manufacturing Industries: Food processing, chemical,
oil production and ref ining, agriculture, mining, lumber,
etc.
Service Industries: Pressing and dry cleaning, vulcan-
izin
g
, dairies, laundries,
p
ublic utilities, trans
p
ortation,
Uses for injectors can be classified generally as follows:
Stand-by Boiler Feed Pump Service
Injectors provide boilers, which are already equipped
with mechanically operated boiler feed pumps, with a
reliable low cost secondary means of feed water supply.
Many boiler manufacturers supply Penberthy Injectors
as original equipment on their steam boilers.
Primary Boiler Feed Pump Service
Boilers not provided with mechanical feed water pumps
can depend upon injectors to function satisfactorily as
the sole source of feed water supply.
Preheating Make-up Water
On applications where the water supply pressure ex-
ceeds the boiler steam pressure, injectors may be used
to heat the water before injection into the boiler, avoiding
the disadvantage of cold water striking hot boiler sur-
faces.
Injecting Feed Water Treatment Compounds
Suitably diluted mixtures of boiler feed water treatment
compounds are picked up and injected into the boiler
without difficulty.
High Pressure and Temperature Water Supply
Injectors may be used as a source for obtaining a supply
of hot water under high pressure for washing floors,
containers, machine parts, etc. When used for this pur-
pose the discharge nozzle must be sized to suit the
injector capacity. See page 10 for details of installation.
Uses
Selection of Injectors
Models or t ypes of injectors are avai lable from which to
select an injector that will operate satisfactorily and effi-
ciently under vi rtually any f ield conditions that may be
encountered in steam plant practice with steam pres-
sures up to 250 pounds per square inch.
Required Information
Injector can be properl y selected by c onsidering the
following facts relating to the operating conditions under
which the injectors will be required to work:
1. Lowest and hi ghest operating steam pressure car-
ried by the boiler
2. Vertical distance that the supply water must be lifted,
if the water supply is below the injector, and the
horizontal distance from the water intake to the in-
jector.
3. The supply water pressure if the water is taken from
the city mains or from elevated tanks.
4. The temperature of the supply water.
5. The maximum rate of evaporation of water from the
Capacity
The size of the injector to be selected depends princi-
pally upon the rate at which the boiler is called upon t o
evaporate water. I t should be chosen so that it will de-
liver at least 30% (preferably 50 to 100%) more water
than the expected maximum evaporation rate of boiler.
Catalog horsepower ratings are based upon supplying
approximately 75% more than the rate of evaporation of
a boiler operating at full rating, or bet ween 7 and 8 gal -
lons per boiler horsepower. Ref erence to injector per-
formance tables will indicate that the capacity of an in-
jector will vary, depending upon the operating steam
pressure, suction lift, suction water temperature or a
combination of these conditions. Unless an injector is
already operating at limiting conditions, its capacity can
be reduced b

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
FOR SUCTION LIFT FOR WATER PRESSURE SUPPLY
Penberthy Injectors are used with any t ype of water supply.
To obtain the best possible results the following points should
be considered.
1. The steam pipe should be an independent line, the same
size as the injector connection and connected to the
boiler at the highest possible point.
2. If injector operates on a suction lift, the water supply pipe
should be one size larger than the injector connection ex-
cept on very short lifts. On long suction lifts, a pipe 2 sizes
larger with a f oot valve installed at end of pope i s recom-
mended. A glove valve, the full size of supply pipe, should
be installed in this line and the strainer which is provided
each injector should be attached at the end. It is very im-
portant tha the water supply pipe connection including the
valve stem packing be free from leaks.
Penberthy Injectors are used with any t ype of water supply.
To obtain the best possible results the following points should
be considered.
3. If injector water supply is taken from city water mains or an
overhead tank, better regulation of water may be obtained
if two globe valves are i nstalled in the water supply line.
The valve nearest the injector is used to regulate the wa-
ter supply while the second valve is adjusted permanently
to provide the most desirable pressure reduction.
4. The delivery pipe should be the same size as the injector
connection or larger if desired. A swing check valve and a
globe valve should be installed in this line, which should be
as direct and as f ree from elbows as the installation will
permit.
OPERATION
To Start: Fully open the water supply valve and the discharge
valve. Next, fully open the steam valve. If water continues to
come out of overflow connection, throttle the water supply
valve until is stops. On low pressure operation it may be nec-
essary to throttle the water supply valve in order t o establish
injector operation. On high pressure operation it is satisfactory
to throttle the steam valve until the water supply pipe is
p
rimed
,
but under all other conditions the steam valve should
be wide open and regul ation of flow governed by the water
supply valve.
To Stop: Close the steam valve. The water supply valve
need not be closed unless supply water is under pre ssure.
The discharge line valve needs to be closed only as a precau-
tionary measure as the check valve will prevent back flow from
the boiler.

INJECTOR INSTALLATION
FOR PRESSURE WASHING
Installed as shown above, injector will produce a high pressure hot water discharge up to 200°F.
Balance between injector capacity and total nozzle discharge capacity is important.
With proper size nozzle, and using dry steam for operation, discharge pressures equal to or even
greater than boiler pressures are obtainable.
When operating, steam valve should be open wide and water supply valve throttled to suit discharge
flow.
For ordinary conditions, reducing valves on the water supply line are not necessary, however if a re-
ducing valve is used, its capacity should be checked to ascertain that the flow will be sufficient for
proper operation.
It is important to use dry steam.
To start operation: Open water supply valve, then open steam valve wide; next, throttle water supply
valve until injector quits spilling at overflow.
