TLV GT10L PowerTrap® (Mechanical Pump with Built-in Trap & Check Valves)

TLV GT10L PowerTrap® (Mechanical Pump with Built-in Trap & Check Valves) recovers and pumps condensate in order to recycle heat energy and water resources.

The snap-action mechanism rapidly switches between sending condensate to the mechanical pump and preventing delay-induced leakage of motive medium (steam/air). Steam using equipment utilising control valves, have a tendency to suffer from the 'stall' phenomenon.

This results in process temperature swings, water hammer or tube corrosion. By installing PowerTrap® this stall phenomenon can be prevented. The GT series has an integral steam trap, making it suitable for condensate recovery from equipment that experiences fluctuations in pressure from negative to positive pressure.

The unit is powered by steam or air, so there is no need for electrical facilities, which makes it suitable for use in hazardous area installations. They are designed to allow maintenance without being removed from condensate recovery lines.

Application areas: suitable for steam processes. Main applications: reboilers, heat exchangers, air conditioning equipment, absorption cooling machinery, etc.
