ADCA AUTOMATIC PUMP TRAP PPT14 DESCRIPTION The ADCAMat PPT14 automatic pump trap is especially recommended where stall condition may occur due to poor steam trap condensate discharge capacity, caused by temporary insufficient pressure drop. The equipment combines the features of a float steam trap and a pressure operated pump, in one single unit. Whenever the steam trap function is incapable of draining condensate, the pump function is activated (using external steam pressure). The pump replaces the necessary positive pressure to lift the condensate to the return system, before water logging occurs, avoiding water hammer and consequent noise, equipment damage, corrosion, unstable temperature control, etc. MAIN FEATURES Compact design. Hardened stainless steel wear parts. High-endurance inconel springs. Low filling head to minimize installation space. No electric requirements or NPSH issues. Suitable for hazardous environments. Low running costs. No motive or flash steam is lost. Operation under vacuum conditions. OPTIONS: Level gauge. Drain and lift steam condensate from heat exchangers, among others. AVAILABLE MODELS: PPT14S – carbon steel. PPT14SS – stainless steel. Flanged EN 1092-1 PN 16. Flanged ASME B16.5 Class 150. Female threaded ISO 7 Rp (threaded flanges). Others on request. Horizontal installation in a closed loop system. An example is shown in Fig. 1. See IMI – Installation and maintenance instructions. MOTIVE MEDIUM: Saturated steam.

ADCA SIZING To accurately size a pump trap, the following information must be provided: 1. Heat exchanger (or process equipment) maximum steam or condensate load, in kg/h. 2. Heat exchanger (or process equipment) operating pressure at full load in bar or, alternatively, the heat exchanger maximum operating pressure in bar and the over design percentage. 3. Motive steam pressure available to operate the pump trap, in bar. 4. The total lift or backpressure in bar the pump will have to overcome. This includes the change in fluid level elevation after the pump (0.0981 bar/m of lift), plus...

ADCA OPERATION 1. In the first instance, the steam intake valve is closed, while the vent valve is open. As condensate flows into the body through the inlet check valve, the PPT14 can operate in a closed loop application, in one of two ways (as a steam trap or pressure operated pump). 2. If the inlet pressure is greater than the back pressure, the PPT14 works as a steam trap, continuously discharging condensate by differential pressure. At this point the steam intake valve remains closed and the vent valve open. 3. As soon as, e.g., the equipment control valve starts to modulate, the steam...
