Condensate-pumping system

A unit to remove condensate from boilers which cannot be drained by gravity is offered by Saniflow. The Sanicondens measures about 28 x 18 x 13 cm; it accumulates up to 1.8 l of condensate and periodically pumps it away to drain. The unit can pump up to 5 m vertically and is supplied with 6 m of flexible discharge pipe. It can pump up to 340 l/h and if pumping vertically to 4 m will handle 156 l/h. Sanicondens is designed to operate with a mean water temperature of 35°C and occasionally up to 80°C with a minimum pH of 2.5.
