Engineered for steam systems, boiler drains, and hot process dehumidification.
High-temperature condensate pumps are specifically designed to handle hot water—typically from 80°C to 120°C or higher—without failing. EKG Malaysia supplies and installs pumps built with heat-resistant materials and seals for industrial steam systems, boiler blowdown, commercial kitchen hoods, and specialized HVAC processes where standard pumps would rapidly degrade.
Key Design Features for High-Temperature Duty:
Heat-Resistant Materials:
Body & Impeller: Cast iron, bronze, or stainless steel (AISI 304/316).
Seals: Viton®, EPDM, or Teflon®-based mechanical seals rated for continuous high temperatures.
Float Switches: Polypropylene or stainless steel floats with high-temp-rated microswitches.
Tubing & Hoses: Reinforced rubber or metal-braided lines.
Thermal Management:
Designed to dissipate heat and prevent motor overheating.
May include cooling jackets or thermal barriers on pump housings.
Sturdy Construction: Built to handle thermal expansion/contraction cycles without leaking or cracking.
Common Applications:
Steam System Condensate Return: Pumping condensed steam from heat exchangers back to the boiler.
Boiler Blowdown Tanks: Removing hot, sediment-laden water from boiler bottoms.
Commercial Dishwasher & Sterilizer Drainage: Handling near-boiling waste water.
Industrial Process Dehumidification: Where reactivation air streams produce very hot condensate.
Commercial Kitchen Grease Hood Drainage: Managing hot, greasy condensate from evaporator coils.
Why Standard Pumps Fail with Hot Water:
Seal Failure: Standard elastomers harden, crack, or melt.
Motor Overheating: Heat transfer from the pump housing cooks the motor windings.
Cavitation: Hot water vaporizes more easily at lower pressure, causing cavitation damage.
Material Degradation: Plastics warp or lose strength.
Our High-Temperature Pump Service:
We provide application-specific selection to match the exact fluid temperature and chemistry. Our service includes installation with proper thermal isolation, venting to prevent vapor locks, and integration with temperature alarms.
Handle the heat with confidence.
The right high-temperature pump ensures reliability and safety in demanding thermal applications.
