- suitable for pressureless and pressurized systems and for systems under vacuum

 

 

 

Condensate is returned by electric driven centrifugal pumps in many cases in industrial plants.

This leads to high complexity (electricity, electronics) and especially interferences, maintenance efforts and energy consumption cause multiple disadvantages.

The VOIGT-Lifter is a innovative and future-proof solution for condensate and fluid delivery technology. High functionality, permanent availibility in continuous use, simple and robust design, fully automatic operating without electricity or electronics, energy and personell cost savings are just a few of the characteristics of condensate return systems from VOIGT Engineering.

The VOIGT-Lifter is the top-quality alternative solution compared to conventional pumping systems. So far existing condensate problems in your company - for pressureless or pressurized condensate or vacuum - could be a thing of the past soon.  

Of course we offer special consulting for complex cases of operation as well and work out fitting solutions for these special cases. Any kind of special designs (for corrosive fluids, for difficult pressure circumstances, for low heights of supply, for inspections acc. international standards) can be realized.

Steam is used in multiple production processes or in process technology in general as energy source or heat carrier. Therefore condensate accrues in the final stages. This condensate should stay in the process as a secondary heat carrier because of its high residual heat, by reasons of logical and economic aspects.
Furthermore condensate is already purified water. It has passed through all processes from raw water extraction to mechanical and chemical conditioning that are necessary for main steam generation.

---

From this follows the obligatory demand of a maximum condensate return in order to design the steam-condensate-loop as cost-effective as possible and to handle resources as sparing as possible.

 

---

To discharge condensate into the drainage, to pollute the drinking water by additional feeding and residual chemicals resulting of the water treatment is not conformable to general  requirements of a contemporary environmental protection any more.
 

---

The same applies to the avoidable use of additonal fuel in case of an overstated rate of fresh water feeding and the emissions by boiler combustion involved. The persistent increasing fuel costs additonally demand particular observance.
 

---

It's not unusual that efficient traditional condensate return systems are intrinsically tied to high machinery investments and cause costs for maintenance, support and servicing.
