APT14 automatic pump-trap
APT14 is a Spirax Sarco automatic pump-trap that drains continuously when pressure is available and switches to pressure-powered pumping when backpressure or vacuum prevent ordinary trap discharge.
Spirax Sarco mechanical condensate pumps and pump-traps recover condensate where low differential pressure, backpressure or vacuum prevents gravity drainage.
Mechanical pumping is usually chosen when trap drainage is no longer enough. If the wider return package is more conventional and receiver-led, compare electric condensate pumps. Where the real issue is still condensate discharge rather than active pumping, continue into steam traps.
When the recovered condensate must be reused effectively in the boiler house, add deaerators and the surrounding boiler controls.
