PowerTrap® is a pump that transports condensate, powered by pressure from steam or compressed air without the use of electricity.
It is ideal for use in open systems* which collect condensate from steam-using equipment for the purposes of recovering heat energy and recycling treated water.
Benefits and Features
Energy Conservation
Recovers and transports condensate in order to recycle heat energy and water resources.
The snap-action mechanism rapidly switches between condensate in-flow to the mechanical pump and discharging the condensate, preventing delay-induced leakage of motive medium (steam, air).
'Stall' Prevention
The steam-using equipment installing the control valve has a tendency to stall, resulting in process temperature swings, water hammer, and/or tube corrosion.
By installing PowerTrap®, this stall phenomenon can be prevented.
Easy to Operate
The unit is powered by steam or air, so there is no need for electrical facilities, which makes it suitable for use in explosion-proof installations and other environments where electrical power supply is not an option.
Designed to allow maintenance without being removed from condensate recovery lines.
Application Areas
Transport high temperature condensate
Reboilers, heat exchangers, cylinder dryers, etc.
Remove condensate from vacuum pressure system
