Condensate Units Overview

Condensate pumps are designed to collect condensed liquid at remote locations in a steam system and move it back to the boiler room. Condensate can be driven by either electricity or steam. Motor-driven pumps typically have centrifugal type pumps and include controls that de-energize the pump when water level in receiver is low. A typical motor-driven unit consists of a 3/16" thick, welded steel receiver or cast iron receiver with an industry-standard electric motor that is close coupled to a bronze-fitted, centrifugal pump. Both simplex and duplex configurations are available with/without mounted, pre-wired control panels. The steam-driven units are typically used in hazardous environments or where electricity may not be readily available.

The motor-driven condensate units in the Shipco® Defender Series are typically equivalent to units in the ITT Hoffman Watchman Series or the Mepco Guardian Series or the Skidmore Protector Series.

Benefits

  • Achieve substantial energy savings by collecting the already heated condensate and returning it to the boiler thereby lowering the consumption of fuel needed to heat the much cooler make-up water.
  • Lower operating costs by reusing condensate already chemically treated thereby reducing the consumption of additional chemicals needed to treat fresh make-up water.

FLOT & PK/FLOT "Motive Powered" Condensate Pump

FLOT & PK/FLOT A Forced Liquid Operated Transfer (FLOT), also know as a motive powered pump is designed to transfer high temperature water (over 250°F) in applications where no electricity is available. Also used in environments that are potentially explosive or hazardous and environments that are wet or extremely humid that would require use of special motors.

The motive powered pump uses a pressurized gas up to 125 psig, such as steam, or compressed air as the motive force for pumping water temperatures up 300°F. Receiver material can be either black steel receiver ASME code-stamped for 150 psig or ductile iron. Motive powered pumps units are available in either simplex or duplex configurations with a variety of options including gauge glass, cycle counter assembly, and insulation.

A "packaged" motive powered pump (PK/FLOT) unit combines the motive powered pump (either steel or ductile iron) with a receiver that is typically elevated above the motive powered pump on a fabricated steel frame. The receiver can be either an atmospheric tank that is 3/16" black steel or a pressured tank that is ASME code-stamped for 150 psig.
