Cost-effective and reliable: BEKOMAT ® standard units
The BEKOMAT® range provides the 12, 13, 14 and BEKOMAT 16 standard units for virtually every application, which are not just the correct solution, rather more also the most suitable low-energy solution. The integrated capacitive sensor for volume-controlled condensate discharge helps save energy and enhances efficiency – which is what you would expect from BEKOMAT.Unnecessary costs and damage in the compressed air generation can only be efficiently prevented with volume-controlled condensate discharge. For this reason, BEKOMAT condensate drain therefore functions with a capacitive sensor. The intelligent electronics prevent compressed air losses and minimise energy consumption. Due to this the electronically regulated condensate discharge, the drain often amortises itself within half a year compared to devices with time-controlled drain valves.
Proper use
• The BEKOMAT® is an electronically level-controlled condensate drain for compressed-air plants.
• It is employed within the permissible operating parameters (see "Technical data").
• The BEKOMAT® is able to drain condensate under operating pressure from the plant components virtually without compressed-air losses.
• For its function, the BEKOMAT® 14 requires an operating voltage and an operating pressure (see "Technical data").
• As far as the employment in plants with increased demands on the compressed-air quality is concerned (food industry, medical technology, laboratory equipment, special processes etc.), the operator must decide on measures for the monitoring of the compressed-air quality. These have an effect on the safety of the subsequent processes and may prevent damage to persons and plants.
• It is the task of the operator to ensure that the indicated conditions are met during the entire operating time.
• For the employment in CO2 plants, a BEKOMAT® with a CO specification (BEKOMAT® ... CO) must be used.
• The BEKOMAT® and the condensate supply line need to be protected against frost, as otherwise the function cannot be guaranteed. BEKO TECHNOLOGIES GMBH also offers suitable products for this purpose.
