BOILER PUMP
Condensate Removal Pump
DRAIN CONNECTION
INLET CONDENSATE DRAIN CONNECTION
1. Position the pump beneath the equipment / unit so that condensate or high temperature
discharge water ows into the pump inlet freely (use either of the two openings provided). When
pressurized hot water is connected always use a tundish prior to entering the pump.
2. The inlet pipe should be positioned as close to the bottom of the tank as possible and the
bottom cut at an angle of greater than 30° to ensure the free ow of the condensate from the
boiler.
3. If the pump is to be used for both boiler condensate & PRV discharge, the copper PRV pipe
should only be inserted at least 1.4" (but no greater than 1.8") into the tank inlet.
OUTLET CONDENSATE CONNECTIONS
1. Connect the 3/8" I.D tubing to the discharge adapter / non return valve. For best results, secure
tubing with clamp but do not pinch, or restrict the tubing. The non return valve has a quick
release mechanism with a 1/4 turn bayonet type tting.
2. Tubing should rise vertically but not exceed the maximum shut o head (pumping height)
of 46' above the pump. Any horizontal runs should be taken into consideration when assessing
the maximum shut o . This shut o will be reduced if bends and horizontal runs are included in
the outlet pipe work. If in doubt please contact DiversiTech for advice.
3. At highest point angle tubing horizontally and create a downward slop to drainage point. Do
not bend sharply or twist the tubing in a way that might result in collapse or restriction of the
tubing. Creating a downward slope will allow condensate to drain by gravity and keep tubing
empty.
4. If not possible to create a downward slope, try to create an inverted "U" trap directly above
the pump at the highest point.
COMMISSIONING & TESTING
1. Before commissioning, check for debris in the tank. Remove any material which might block the
drain line or drain into the pump tank.
2. Turn on power and slowly ll the tank with clean water, as the oat rises to the on level position the
motor should turn on.
3. Leave the clean water in the tank as this will e ectively prime the pump ready for use and help to
prevent any ue products passing through the pump from the boiler condensate drain pipe.
This pump is designed for use with condensing boiler applications. Caution must be taken to ensure
acidity of condensate does not increase below the average pH of 2.8 (to prevent pitting) by routinely
cleaning or ushing tank with fresh water.
MAINTENANCE & SERVICING
1. Before servicing the pump, disconnect the electric power for both the pump and the equipment
unit.
2. It is recommended that the pump be checked every six months for proper operation. It is
important to check for debris which may cause a blockage to the pump discharge
adapter/non return valve. Check for proper free movement of pump oat and switch and
check for free, unrestricted movement of motor and fan.
3. Clean the holding tank and oat with warm water and mild soap. Rinse completely when nished.
4. Check the inlet and outlet piping. Clean as necessary. Be sure there are no kinks in the outlet
line that would inhibit or restrict ow.
