INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
ADCAMAT POP
– PPO-14 – PPA-14 PRESSURE OPERATED PUMPS
GENERAL
•
These instructions must be carefully read before any work involving products supplied by VALSTEAM ADCA
ENGINEERING S.A. is undertaken.
•
The installation procedure is a critical stage in a life of the equipment and care should be taken to avoid
damage to the equipment.
•
They give their maximum performance only when the equipment associated with them is correctly sized and
installed in accordance with our recommendations.
•
The POP pumps are designed for condensate pumping, cold water and other group 2 fluids, without the use of
electricity. They are specially recommended to return high temperature condensate back to boiler houses to
save and conserve energy.
•
The ADCAmat automatic pumps can lift hot condensate, oils and other liquids as high as 60m (200ft) or
discharge against an equivalent total back pressure. The pump starts when there is something to pump and
stops when there isn’t.
•
Liquid flows by gravity into the pump through an inlet check valve lifting a float which at the upper limit of its
travel opens the supply valve which allows steam or compressed air to enter the pump body. Pressure in the
pump builds up until just sufficient to overcome back pressure. The pressurized liquid opens the outlet check
valve and discharge commences. When the float reaches the minimum lower level, it closes the steam or
compressed air supply valve and opens the vent allowing the liquid to fill the pump again, beginning other cycle.
Note:
•
Current regional safety regulations should be taken in to account and followed, while doing the installation and
maintenance work.
•
Handling, installation and maintenance work must be carried out by trained personnel. A supervisor must follow
and check all activities.
•
For the problems that cannot be solve with the help of this instructions, please contact the supplier or the
manufacturer.
•
The manufacturer reserves the right to change the design and material of this product without notice.
•
If necessary to perform hydrostatic test on the equipment/installation be aware of the limits according to the
table below. The internal mechanism cannot be subject to the hydrostatic test of the body.
