Steam > Condensate Pumps
DESCRIPTION
The ADCAMAT POP (Pressure Operated Pump)
fabricated carbon steel (stainless steel on request)
is recommended in the transfer of high-temperature
liquids such as condensate,oils and other liquids
to a higher elevation or pressure.
The pump starts when there is something to pump
and stops when there isn’t.
Under certain conditions, it can drain a closed vessel
under vacuum or pressure.
The pump can be operated by steam,compressed
air or gas and can be used for lifting any kind of
noncorrosive liquids.
Connections are flanged or female screwed
(with screwed flanges).
FUNCTION
Liquid flows by gravity into the pump through an inlet check valve lifting a float which, at the upper limit of its travel, opens the
supply valve which allows steam or compressed air to enter the pump body. Pressure in the pump builds up until just sufficient
to overcome back pressure.
The pressurized liquid opens the outlet check valve and discharge commences. When the float reaches the minimum lower
level it closes the steam or compressed air supply valve and opens the vent, allowing the liquid to fill the pump again. As
the amount of liquid discharged at each stroke is known, the total volume passed during a given period can be calculated by
counting the number of strokes during that period. For this purpose a special counter is available which screws into a
tapped connection on the top cover of the pump. This counter records the number of pumping strokes thus enabling the
pump to function as a reliable flow meter
