Pump-trap unit

A pump-trap unit combines steam-trap action with mechanical condensate pumping so condensate can be moved when differential pressure is insufficient for drainage. It is distinct from both an ordinary trap and a standalone pump. Motive supply, receiver, capacity, and valve arrangement must come from the actual package.

Application and duty

Condensate drainage and transfer under uncertain differential pressure using a sized unit

TECHNICAL REFERENCE

Selection summary

Steam trapping, pressure reduction, moisture separation and condensate recovery

Condensate load, operating pressure, back pressure, process-control method and venting requirements drive steam-equipment selection.
