 Condensate
Return
Another traditional application for MTH
pumps, related to boiler feed systems is condensate
return service. Condensate (condensed steam) is collected in a receiver
which contains either a float switch or level control that starts the pump
when the condensate level is high and stops it when low. The condensate
is normally pumped to either a deaerator or a surge tank. Condensate has
value in that it contains heat energy, so it requires less energy to return
it to steam, thus providing savings. Because of their high pressure pumping
characteristic and their ability to pump water at temperatures close to
boiling (low NPSH requirement) MTH regenerative turbines are very well suited
to this application. We are standard equipment on many well known boiler
manufacturer's condensate return systems.
Depending on the size of your system, any of our mechanically sealed standard
products such as the T Series or our flexible coupled 140 thru 280
Series will do the job nicely. Bronze fitted construction is typical,
but MTH also offers low cost stainless steel versions of our regenerative
turbine products that feature stainless steel casings and corrosion resistant
nickel silver impellers that far exceed the life expectancy of bronze
fitted iron units. Please contact the factory
and ask about our 7CT7MTH unit which is part of our MTH CT Series line,
as well as our MTH CR and MTH CS Series lines.
