F
The condensate ows via the condensate inlet [F] into the
BEKOMAT®and collects in the housing [26].
The lling level in the housing [26] is continuously
monitored by a capacitive sensor in the sensor tube [28].

Once the condensate has reached the maximum ll level,
the pilot valve [X1] is activated using the controller.
The pilot valve [X1] activates, and the area above the
membrane [21] is depressurised.
The membrane [21] lifts o the valve seat and the excess
pressure in the housing [26] presses the condensate into
the condensate discharge [D].

When the sensor in the sensor tube [28] is no longer
covered by condensate, the controller of the pilot
valve [X1] activates and pressure builds up above the
membrane [21].
The membrane [21] is pressed against the valve seat and
the condensate discharge [D] is sealed tightly.
The switching cycle starts again with the feed of
condensate.
