The steam header is one of the key devices in the boiler steam system, and its core function is to evenly deliver steam to each steam-consuming equipment.

1. Steam distribution
This is the most core function. The steam generated by the boiler will be concentrated and enter the steam header. Then, through multiple branch valves on the steam header, the steam will be distributed to different steam-consuming terminals (such as heat exchangers, production equipment, heating systems, etc.) as needed.

2. Voltage stabilization and current stabilization
It has a certain volume and can act as a buffer. When the steam pressure of the boiler fluctuates or the load of each steam-consuming equipment changes, the steam header can balance the system pressure, prevent sudden rises and falls in pressure, and ensure that the steam pressure delivered to each branch is stable and the flow is uniform.

3. System maintenance and control are convenient
Each branch of it is equipped with an independent valve. When the steam-consuming equipment of a certain branch needs maintenance, the valve of that branch can be closed separately without affecting the normal steam supply of other branches. At the same time, it is also convenient to install pressure gauges, thermometers, safety valves and other monitoring and safety devices on the steam distribution.
