Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015042670A1] The present invention relates to a device for transportation of condense by steam. According to the invention inside the vessel (1) a pilot mechanism (2) with two volume float (3) is installed. The upper volume (4) of the float ensures positive buoyancy. The change of the level of the condense inside the vessel moves the float in vertical direction that switches the pilot mechanism to allow or stop the steam income. The pilot mechanism provides or stops providing steam income to the main valves' mechanism (5), that simultaneously opens the main inlet valve and closes the main outlet valve for discharging, or closes the main inlet valve (6) and opens the main outlet valve (7) for filling, depending on the position of the float. The vessel is fed with condense through inlet check valve (8). Condense is discharged through outlet check valve (9). The proposed device ensures smooth and automatic transport of condense.
