Even if the spray head 102 applies the spray mist on one side of the condenser tube, the spray mist can be attracted to the opposite side of the condenser tube 101 due to the electrostatic attraction, so that the hydrophobic coating also deposits on the opposite side.

  • a condenser tube bundle 203 may be provided for a condenser 100 having built-in and hydrophobically coated condenser tubes 101. Due to the coating of the condenser tubes 101 in the installed state, the manufacturing process of the condenser tube bundle 203 can be accelerated since the coating process need not be performed individually for each condenser tube 101, but once for the entirety of the condenser tubes 101 installed. In addition, in the course of the maintenance of a capacitor 100 already mounted on the steam turbine plant and in operation, a coating of the condenser tubes 101 can be provided without the condenser tubes 101 having to be removed.
  • Damage to the hydrophobic coating which occurs when installing a condenser tube 101 in the carrier 105 of the condenser tube bundle 203, can also be avoided because the condenser tubes 101 are coated after the installation of the condenser tubes 101 in the carrier 105 of the condenser tube bundle 203 with the hydrophobic coating.
