Condensate Return

Among the time-honored applications for MTH pumps, one that seamlessly dovetails with boiler feed systems is the indispensable role they play in condensate return service. In this arena, the collection and management of condensate, which is the condensed steam resulting from the cooling of vapor, find an efficient and reliable ally in regenerative turbine pumps.

This process begins within a receiver, where the accumulated condensate finds a home. Within this reservoir, precision meets automation as either a float switch or a level control mechanism springs into action. When the condensate level surges, triggering the high-point, the regenerative turbine pump commences its rhythmic dance. As the condensate ebbs and the level subsides, the pump's duty gracefully concludes.

The journey of the collected condensate does not conclude within the receiver; it advances to either a deaerator or a surge tank. What makes condensate particularly valuable lies in its latent heat energy, a resource that finds its rekindling as it voyages back to steam form, a process that generously yields energy savings.

The regenerative turbine pump's ability to pump water at temperatures nearly synonymous with boiling is a pivotal factor in the excellence it brings to the condensate return application. This phenomenon is supplemented by its characteristic high-pressure pumping aptitude. It's this harmonious fusion of attributes that positions MTH regenerative turbines as the quintessential choice for condensate return service.

Eminence within this application is further solidified by MTH's collaboration with well-regarded boiler manufacturers. MTH regenerative turbines have found their place as standard equipment within renowned condensate return systems, a testament to their reliability and efficiency.

Depending on the scale of your system, MTH offers an array of solutions, from the steadfast T Series to the versatile 140 thru 280 Series. While a bronze-fitted construction is the conventional choice, MTH takes innovation further by presenting low-cost stainless steel iterations. These stainless steel wonders are characterized by corrosion-resistant nickel silver impellers and stainless steel casings, granting them a life expectancy that soars beyond their bronze-fitted counterparts.

For further exploration, the MTH CT Series line proudly boasts the 7CT7MTH unit, while the MTH CR and MTH CS Series lines await your inquiry. The condensate return service is not merely about fluid management; it's a synergy of precision, efficiency, and enduring performance. In this realm, MTH regenerative turbine pumps emerge as the reliable heartbeat that keeps the system thriving.
