Compare Different Types of Diaphragm Stators
Evaluate the differences between fabricated steel diaphragms and cast iron diaphragms from Turbo Engineering International so that you can make the right choice for your diaphragm needs.
Fabricated Steel Diaphragms:
- Made from steel with superior strength and ductility
- Stainless steel steam path meets API specs
- Repairable by welding
- Superior wear resistance to wet steam
- Maintains surface finish on vanes during fabrication (32 microinches)
- Enhanced flow pattern due to surface finish in steam path increases service life
- Favorable lead times due to utilization of high-tech manufacturing process
Cast Iron Diaphragms:
- Limited to low ultimate strength, conducive to steam erosion in base iron
- Base iron not repairable and vanes distort during the pouring of molten iron
- Vanes become receptive to cracking during the cooling of cast iron
- Dull finish following removal of vanes' coating (125/250 microinches)
- High scrap rate due to inherent manufacturing problems, often increasing lead times
- Long lead times due to outdated technology
