The Sanicondens Best Flat is a 2 in 1 condensate pump used to neutralize and pump condensate from condensing boilers, HVAC systems, water heater systems, etc. It is one of the most powerful and quiet condensate pumps on the market with standard features that no competitor can match. The Sanicondens Best Flat will pump condensate waste up to 15 feet in height and/or 150 feet away from a soil stack. Condensate has the potential to cause property damage or even create health hazards that can affect indoor air quality. Many times, the condensate is not able to drain through gravity to an existing drain line. This is the reason a condensate pump is essential to many residential and commercial applications. This two-quart capacity condensate pump comes equipped with all the necessary hardware for easy installation. It can be installed on top of flat surface or mounted on a wall. In many applications, the condensate needs to be neutralized before it discharges into a sewer line. Neutralized condensate prevents the corroding of drains and sewer systems while being more environmentally friendly. New technology allows for the neutralizer and condensate pump to be built into one system creating a less expensive and space saving solution. The Sanicondens Best Flat is does this by raising the the pH levels from condensate being produced by appliances up to 500,000 BTU/hour input. The inside of the Sanicondens Best Flat comprises of a float mechanism, which starts and stops the unit, and the motor, which drives the pump. When the condensate enters the Sanicondens Best Flat through a side inlet or through a couple of inlets on top of the enclosure, which in turn starts the motor. Water enters the chamber and is pumped away through the neutralizing agent (Part #042) into the sanitary sewer. The unit pumps the effluent upward to 15 feet and/or 150 feet horizontally (with gravity fall). Once the water is discharged and the water level in the container goes down, the float deactivates the unit until water enters the unit again. A normal operating cycle for the Sanicondens Best Flat can be as short as 3-5 seconds depending upon the discharge pipe run configuration; power consumption is therefore minimal. The discharge connection of the unit comes equipped with a non-return valve, which prevents back flow into the unit. The powerful pumping unit can be floor or wall mounted. It comes ready to install with connections to an external overflow, shut-off switch or alarm system. It also includes all necessary hardware for ease of installation; 20 Ft of vinyl tubing, inlet adapter, discharge adapter and neutralizing granules. The Sanicondens Best Flat has been certified to American and Canadian Standards. Electrical standard UL 788, CA: Electrical standard CSA C22.2 Dimensions l x w x h (in)
