Model K
Multi-Stage Steam Turbine
The Dresser-Rand® Model K steam turbine is a cost-effective unit designed for
commercial and industrial applications where moderate load and steam conditions
prevail. With power requirements up to 7650 HP (5700 kW) and speeds to 10,000
RPM, the Model K steam turbine can be configured with one to nine stages to meet
a wide range of steam conditions.
The Model K turbine should be considered wherever a steady power source is
required over a wide speed range. Typical Model K turbine installations include chill-
er drives for universities, medical centers, and district energy applications, as well
as drives for compressors, process compressors, centrifugal pumps, fans and blow-
ers in the petroleum, petrochemical, paper, institutional, and food process industries.
Casing Design
A horizontally split casing with integral cast bearing bracket and heavy flanges
give the Model K turbine added strength. The integral gland cases, containing the
steam seals, provide a heavy gland boss at these points to maintain the integrity
and strength in this critical area of the casing. The reinforcing boss permits addi-
tional steam seals to be used resulting in less steam loss and longer running times
between seal changes. These and other design features help create an exception-
ally rugged and reliable turbine.
Inlet Valves
The Model K turbine is designed with a single inlet valve with optional manual hand
valves for steam flow control, and a wide selection of optional governors and acces-
sories.
