How to Size Liquid Motive Eductors for Exhausting GasesUsing the Eductor Models ML and MLEExhausting is a continuous operation of removing gases at a constant suction pressure. The units are sized based on a desired flow rate of gas through the eductor. Step 1 Before beginning to do the actual sizing, convert all pressure and flow to the units used in the sizing table. (If sizing is done regularly with other units, request a special sizing table from us.).

Step 2 First find the value that is equal to or greater than your system back pressure in the Outlet Pressure (Po) column. After locating the correct value on me sizing table. Use this section of the table t0 size the unit. Step 3 Locate the pressure that is equal to or higher than your desired suction pressure (Ps) for the outlet pressure found in Step 2. If the pressure is between two values on the sizing table. You can interpolate between them.

If you don't wish to interpolate, the higher pressure will give a conservative estimate. Step 4 In the row for suction pressure (Ps), locate the column where the motive pressure (Pm) is equal to your motive pressure in the flowing condition.

Model CTE - Circulating Tank Eductor TME - Tank Mixing Eductor Pressure differential of inlet to tank pressure 10-100 psig (70-690 kPag) 10-50 psig (70-345 kPag) Mixing ratio 3:1 4:1.

If the pressure is between two levels on the sizing table, you can interpolate between the values. If you don't wish to interpolate.

The lower pressure will give a conservative estimate. Step 5 Divide your desired flow (Qs) rate by the flow rate of each model. This will give you a desired Sizing Factor (S.F.) for each model.

Pick a unit with a S.F. (sizing factor) that is equal to or larger than the one calculated above. Generally, the model with a larger suction capacity will be the more efficient unit to calculate the actual gas flow, multiply the S.F. Of the selected model by the suction flow (Qs) of the model in the table. Step 6 Calculate the amount of water required to operate the eductor by multiplying the GPM in the Motive Flow (Qm) row by the S.F. Of the unit selected. Note 1: In many cases.

The capacity of the MLE and ML units are close. Both should be sized to find the proper unit for the application.

Note 2: When using liquids to pump gases. The eductor acts as a 'volume displacing device. The weight of the gas has only minimal effect on the performance of the eductor.
