Condensate Transfer Stations
In most heating systems, condensate, and sometimes steam, is
trapped out of heaters, kettles, hot presses, molds, absorbers,
and other equipment and drained to a return unit having given
up some of its heat in the process. If a trap malfunctions, the
condensate can be passed to the return unit at a much higher
temperature causing the return unit to fail. When using Bryan
Condensate Transfer Stations as the return unit, this problem
is overcome because they are designed to eliminate cavitation
at higher temperatures. In addition, Bryan Condensate Transfer
Stations are designed to handle the higher load placed on them
during cold starts and are supplied with reliable pumps that are
designed to handle hotter water and develop higher pressures
at lower speeds.
Bryan Condensate Transfer Stations are ideal for remote or
non-accessible locations where unattended, dependable per-
formance is essential.
Bryan Condensate Transfer Stations Features
Construction
Bryan Condensate Transfer Stations can be supplied for
either simplex or duplex operations. Simplex units can be
converted to duplex operations in the field if an upgrade is
required for receivers larger than eight gallons. Users can
specify either cast iron or 3/16 inch (4.8 mm) steel receivers
with receiver capacities ranging from 8 to 50 gallons (30 to 189
liters). A safety reserve is provided in these capacities to
handle water at up to 10 psi (0.68 bar) above the selected
discharge pressure. Safety venting to the atmosphere is re-
quired. Units will deliver hot water at temperatures up to 200ºF
(93ºC) and will not vapor bind at 210ºF (98ºC).
Electrical equipment is generally mounted at least 1 foot
(0.305 m) above floor level for safety and to maintain pumping
if flooding occurs.
Bryan Condensate Transfer units are supplied with an
internal pump that operates at 1750 rpm. Pumps, which are
mounted vertically on top of the receiver, are leak proof and
easy to maintain.
Floats are set at the factory to provide about 2 inches (5.08
cm) of water level variation between start and stop. This
insures frequent recycling and smaller condensate transfers
at higher temperatures, thus improving overall efficiency of
the boiler system.
Settings for both float switches and mechanical alternators
can be field adjusted. All units can be provided with optional
pressure gauges for the pump discharge. An optional thermom-
eter can be provided for the receiver.
Electrical
Motor sizes range from 1/4 hp to 2 hp and operate at 1750 rpm.
Operating voltages are 115/230 volt single phase or 230/460
volt three phase. Enclosed motors are available as an option.
Electrical options are available. Consult your Bryan represen-
tative for more information.
