How too much Condensation can lead to Big Headaches

Pumps are used for different purposes. A condensate pump is used specifically for pumping the water/condensate produced in the process of heating or cooling in an HVAC. Water or condensate needs to be flushed out of a steam system, condensing boiler furnace, and refrigeration. Refrigerators, air conditioners, and other appliances will need the condensate pump to remove the water build-up from the system.

There are several condensate pumps from different companies available in the market. Some of these known for their quality and efficiency are Bell & Gossett Pumps, B&G Condensate Pump, and Liberty Condensate Pumps.

Features and benefits of B&G Model LS

The B&G LS condensate removal pumps rely on advanced technology for its energy-efficient operation. These pumps use a permanent magnet and the ECM technology or electronically communicated motor technology. The condensate pumps in this series are specifically designed for difficult operations where gravity removal of condensate fluid is not possible.

The LS condensate pumps with ECM Motor and ABS housing are designed to save energy. Its operation is trouble-free, and it generates a very low level of noise.

The LS condensate unit can address condensate from different sources. It can work on condensates from evaporators, air dehumidifiers, air conditioning, cooling, and refrigeration systems. It works efficiently with gas and oil condensing boilers with a maximum heating capacity of 682.400 BTU/h and a minimum pH value of 2.7 or more.

These pumps are easy and ready to install and are fully automatic. Their low energy consumption, small footprint, and long, quiet operation are some noteworthy features.

Bell & Gossett 6098B0000 Model LS Condensate Removal Pump

Bell & Gossett 6098B0000 Model LS Condensate Removal Pump uses permanent magnet and ECM or electronically commutated motor technology to remove condensate. The LS condensate from Bell and Gossett are specially designed to be used in applications where condensate fluid removal is not possible.

Bell & Gossett 6098B0000 Model LS Condensate Removal Pump

This condensate pump guarantees trouble-free operation for years. It creates a minimal level of noise in comparison to other similar pumps while saving energy.

It comes with several features, including condensate removal for air cooling/conditioning systems and condensing boilers. There is a control to start and stop the pump and it drains condensate into a pressure hose. Indicator lights indicate the status of the unit. If there is a problem, the alarm is relayed. With its low energy consumption, its footprint is small. It is fully automated, and it is easy to install.

Liberty LCU-20 series Condensate Pumps

The Liberty LCU-Series condensate pumps are from Liberty that runs on 115 or 230 volts. These pumps are designed to remove condensate from several different types of appliances. They can efficiently handle condensate from ice machines, dehumidifiers, A/C equipment, and high-efficiency furnaces. A safety switch is available in models LCU-20S, LCU-20ST, and LCU220S. You get a three-year warranty on all Liberty condensate pumps.

LCU-20S Automatic Condensate Removal Pumps

The LCU-20S is a product of the Liberty Company. This condensate removal pump comes with a safety switch, 115v motor, and a 1/30 HP. It works efficiently in several applications that require condensate removal. Some of them include drinking fountains, dehumidifiers, beverage machines, A/C equipment, high-efficiency furnaces, and other applications.
