What are the advantages of a VOIGT-Lifter compared to pumping systems?
Usually pumps work intermittent, i.e. the pumps deliver from very large collectors between a maximum and minimum container water level in pre-determined intervals. In order to hold the switching frequency of the pumps within limits, the collectors are usually still substantially oversized. Thus this not only leads to higher initial costs and increased space requirement, but also to long retention times of the condensate, whereby an unwanted cooling occurs. If the pump switches on, in one course maximum condensate volumes are delivered to the following systems, which often cannot process and/or take up these quantities optimally unless regulated pumps are used in exceptional cases. Condensates are usually under higher temperatures, that usually destroys pumps in combination with cavitation. These disadvantages are irrelevant for VOIGT-Lifters. The condensate is continuously taken out of the very small intermediate vessel over the entire period of operation and supplied to the following
