PT-104 Series Mini Pump Trap
Cast irondischarge per cycle 2 gallons (7 liters)
For pressures to 100 psig (7 bar)
Capacities to 1,800 lb/hr (816 kg/hr)
The patented Armstrong PT-104 Mini Pump Trap is the smallest non-electric solution that can move condensate or other liquids from lower to higher points and from lower to higher pressures. Condensate can be returned at temperatures well above the 200F (93C) limit of conventional electric centrifugal pumps without the headaches of leaking seals or cavitation problems. The PT-104 Mini Pump is the small solution for big problems.
Economical non-electric operation. Uses inexpensive steam air or inert gas.
Low-maintenance operation. No leaking seals, impeller or motor problems means lower maintenance. No NPSH issues.
Space-saving size. Low-profile body fits in tight spaces while allowing minimal fill head.
Lower installation costs. Single trade required for installation and maintenance.
Peace of mind. Standard unit is intrinsically safe explosion-proof.
Cast iron durability. Rugged construction material means long service life.
Corrosion resistance. Internals are all stainless steel for corrosion resistance and long life.
Heavy-duty springs. Springs are made from long-lasting Inconel X-750.
Efficiency. A closed loop means no motive or flash steam is lost. All valuable BTUs are captured and returned to the system.
Safety. The pump can be used in flooded pits without fear of electrocution or circuit breaker defaults.
Typical applications
Low-pressure heating systems
Process heat exchanger or coils with modulating steam control
Remote installations (tracing, tank farms, or remote coils)
Systems under vacuum
Hazardous (explosion-proof) areas
Caustic environments
Sumps or submersed areas
Flash tanks
NOTE: Armstrong can also custom fabricate packages to meet your specific needs. Pre-piped conventional, low-boy, closed-loop and custom-fabricated skid packages are available.
