Degasser connected lines, temperature

Degasser connected lines, temperature

Degasser connected lines, temperature

(OP)
I have a degasser that it's controlled by Temperature.
It's project temperature is = 240°C and it have a PSV setted at 6 barg and a normal feed steam at 2 barg.
From the degasser come out a line of water (suction of a pump) that have a project temperature of 150°C.

My question is:
can happend that in some particular conditions the water inside the degasser is hotter than 150°C?

RE: Degasser connected lines, temperature

Yes, if the process deviations could see 6 bar (or more), as per the PSV setting. Check the saturation curves for 6 bar pressure, you'll get the saturation (water) temperature at 6 bar. Probably around 160 deg C.
