A Pump-Trap is used in place of a Steam Trap to drain condensate from a process application when the steam pressure in the process is not sufficient to push the condensate thru the steam trap and into the condensate return line. When steam pressure in a Heat Exchanger is less than the back pressure on the discharge side of the steam trap, the condensate backs up, causing inconsistent heat transfer and potential water hammer. This frequently occurs on applications where a temperature control valve is used to supply steam to a Heat Exchanger based on product temperature and flow rate. To prevent condensate backup under these conditions, a pump-trap must be used in place of a steam trap.
The WPT Series are stand-alone pump units with an appropriately sized External Steam Trap pre-assembled at the factory and mounted on a common base plate, allowing for simple installation. The WPT Series should be used when capacity requirements exceed the PMPT (pump with internal steam trap).
