	ckj, Condensing steam turbines require 1)a condenser, 2)a lube oil sytem 3) considerable maintenance Small non-condensing steam turbines are a good fit where there is 1) free steam 2) a need for a steam pressure drop 3) a need for a variable speed driver in the range of ~500 to 3000 kW.

	Do you have steam available? Please detail the boiler operating pressure and steam temperature. __________________ I not only use all the brains that I have, but all that I can borrow. Woodrow Wilson
