How does a VOIGT-Lifter work under vacuum?
In this case the VOIGT-Lifter has to be connected by its relaxation line with the consumer and/or the buffer tank. During the inlet phase to the VOIGT-Lifter the steam exhaust valve of the control block is opened, whereby a free connection to the collecting tank, condenser or other consumer standing under vacuum exists and thus an all-round pressure balance exists (same vacuum also in the VOIGT-Lifter). Thus the condensate flows freely into the VOIGT-Lifter. It is in principle irrelevant what pressure environment exists, thus the condensate form can change also sliding into the pressure-free or over-pressure range. A main advantage of the employment of a VOIGT-Lifter lies in the fact that this only works and/or can work, if condensate flows and/or is available. Therefore no regulations are necessary, cavitation is impossible. A removing of the condensate takes place reliably and trouble-free without any control mechanisms.
