PPC and PPF Pressure Powered Pumps
Available types PPC cast iron body and cover, with gunmetal check valves. PPF fabricated steel body and cover, with steel check valves. Connecting nipples are not supplied with check valves.
Limiting conditions
PPC - 8.6 bar g (up to 232 °C) PPF - 8.6 bar g (up to 343 °C) (ASME stamped — (ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section VIII Div 1)).
Body design conditions
Operating inlet pressure. Steam, air or gas, 0.34 to 8.6 bar g. Total lift or back pressure which must be below operating pressure to allow capacity to be achieved. Height (H) in metres x 0.0981 plus pressure (bar g) in return line, plus downstream piping friction pressure drop in bar calculated at a flow rate of the lesser of six times the actual condensate rate or 20,000 L/h. Filling head recommended above the pump is 0.3 m. Minimum filling head 0.15 m (reduced capacity.) Standard pump operates with liquids of specific gravity 1.0 down to 0.9, specify when ordering for liquid specific gravity from 0.9 to 0.65.
Pump discharge per cycle:- PPC 27 L, PPF 32 L. Each cycle at a maximum flow rate of 20,000 L/h. Steam consumption — 3 kg. of steam per 1000 kg liquid pumped. Air consumption — 6230 L n per 1000 kg liquid pumped.

Installation For best operation any flash steam must be vented or condensed ahead of pump inlet. Full details are given in the Installation and Maintenance Instructions supplied with each pump
Optional extras Flow counter for measuring liquid pumped.
A plugged boss is provided on the pump cover, screwed ½" API for connecting the counter. The flow counter body is brass and must be installed in a vertical position. Flow counter can only be used when pump exhaust is vented to atmosphere. Gauge glass with brass cocks.
