Introduction Aurora Condensate Units

Condensate return requirements call for a system that will provide uninterrupted service for single or multiple boiler installations. Aurora Packaged Systems deliver those values which you need and expect. Quality features include a steel receiver, float switch and pumps all completely assembled. In Auroras design, the pumps, support, and piping are mounted beneath the receiver on a common steel base. As your heating system grows, the receiver design will allow you to convert from simplex to duplex. Just add a pump and pipe it upl In a duplex system, single pump operation provides service when capacity and demand call for normal service. Duplex units require very little additional floor space than a simplex unit requires. The two APCO pumps used in the system operate alternately to extend the life of both pumps Both pumps operate simultaneously when service demands exceed the capabilities of a single pump. This Aurora product offers:

• Turbine design that handles vapor bubbles with no vapor lock.
• Design simplicity with a minimum of pans.
• Complete system package pre-piped on a one-piece common base.
• Versatile, rugged, compact construction
• Simplex and Space Saving Duplex Systems.

The following pages explain the reasons why AURORA PUMP is able to offer you a modern, packaged, customer proven system.

1. Steel Receiver is 3/16" thick to insure long life. Receiver connections are threaded and include vent, inlet and drain.
2. Stainless Steel Float has adjustable travel to permit 1-1/2 times maximum return rate between stops Combination float switch and alternator is standard on duplex units.
3. Temperatures TO 190ºF. water and selected for a minimum capacity of twice the rate of evaporation.
4. Brass Water Level Gauge glass assembly is furnished complete with shut-off valve.
5. Interchangeable Design provides future system expansion with receiver connections for up to 2 pumps. Just add a pump and pipe it up.
6. Completely Assembled Piping from receiver to pump Included are expansion type elbows to eliminate pipe strain.
7. Accessiblity to pump and other components for easier maintenance. All pumps and piping are mounted beneath the receiver. The unit bolts to a steel base.
8. Pumps designed for condensate applications will handle entrained vapor and air with liquid to eliminate vapor lock

Feed requirements of boilers demand a system that produces non-stop service for single or double boiler installations. These Aurora boiler feed units get the job done.

• Capacities to 77 G.P.M. (17.5 M³/HR)
• Heads to 678 Feet (176 Meters)
• Temperatures to 210ºF (107ºC)

Quality features include a carbon steel receiver, 3-way valves, and pumps, all completely assembled. Duplex, dual and triplex units do not require any additional floor space than a simplex unit requires. In Aurora's design, the pumps, bases and piping are mounted beneath the receiver within the support stand. As your heating system grows, the receiver design will allow you to convert from simplex to duplex, dual or triplex construction. Just add pumps and pipe them up! The following pages explain the reasons why AURORA PUMP is able to offer you a modern, packaged, customer proven, feed system.
