Condensate Pots for Small Volume Displacements.

Condensate Pots (also called Seal Pots) are used in the measurement of steam or other vapors for two reasons: One reason is that a level of condensed water is accumulated inside of the pot and maintains a fluid volume for displacement equal to or greater than the volume displacement of the transmitter (protecting the transmitter from heat).

The second reason for maintaining a liquid inside of the pot is to prevent flashing of the liquid in the impulse line if a sudden temperature change of the steam is made. A dam inside of the pot prevents this flashing effect.

Pots with more outlet ports for applications where foreign material should be trapped and drained preventing damage of the manifolds and transmitters are also available.
