Vented Condensate Pump Package with Flash Steam Heat Recovery (VCP-C)(Steam-Pressure-Powered)

Model VCP - 3C

Vented Condensate Pressure Pump Package
with Flash Steam Heat Recovery (Steam Pressure-Powered)


The Model VCP-3C, Vented Condensate Pump Package with Flash Steam Heat Recovery, is a manufactured, ready-to-install system featuring significant energy savings. Flash Steam is released when trapped Condensate and is discharged to atmospheric pressure. The heat available in the Flash Steam is transferred to Make-up Water, or another fluid medium, where heat is required. The result is substantial savings in energy costs at attractive pay-back periods. Also, designed for efficient pumping of condensate, VCP-3C utilizes steam power in lieu of electric motors, eliminating the need for wiring motors, starters, and controls. The steam-powered pump package is capable of operation in flammable environments. Operating by steam pressure versus electric power, reduces pumping costs. The pump employs a float operated snap-acting mechanism with no external seals or packing, which eliminates seal maintenance, which is required on conventional pumps. All internal pump components and mechanism are constructed of stainless steel.

NOTES:

1. Savings are based on max. potential savings at max. pump capacity on 8400 hr./yr. of continuous operation
2. Steam costs at $5.00/MM Btu
3. Savings assume no back pressure on Vented Flash Steam.
4. Water side flow rate based on at 80oF temperature change from 60oF to 140oF.
5. Savings based on approx. calculations.
