Condensate discharge temperature limiter | ARI

The Condensate Discharge Temperature Limiter by ARI is a sophisticated component designed for efficient condensate management and temperature control in various systems, including HVAC, steam systems, and industrial heating applications. Key components include: 1. **Liquid Drainer (PN16 / PN40):** Available with multiple connection types and made from materials like grey cast iron and forged steel. It operates under pressures of PN16 (12.8 barg) and PN40 (32 barg) and can handle temperatures up to 300°C and 385°C, respectively. It automatically discharges condensate during start-up and shutdown with adjustable closing pressures. 2. **Condensate Discharge Temperature Limiter (PN40):** Made from forged steel, it can handle temperatures up to 450°C and is used in systems requiring specific condensate discharge temperatures, with adjustable closing temperatures. 3. **Return Temperature Limiter (PN40):** Also made from forged steel, it optimizes energy consumption by limiting return temperatures in heating systems, with a closing temperature range of 60°C to 130°C. It features a corrosion- and waterhammer-resistant bimetallic controller. 4. **Automatic Air Vent for Liquid Systems (PN16 / PN25 / PN40):** Constructed from SG iron, cast steel, and stainless steel, it automatically vents air to maintain proper system pressure, handling up to 21 barg and 400°C. 5. **Vacuum Breaker (PN16 / PN40):** Made from stainless steel, it prevents vacuum formation in pipelines, protecting the system from damage, and operates under pressures up to 21 barg. General features include capacity charts for performance evaluation and flexible installation options. Customizable options like blowdown valves, thermometer inserts, and external adjustment devices enhance functionality and maintenance.
