A continuous flow steam condensate removal device includes a Venturi-type nozzle of relatively small diameter formed in an intermediate portion of a unitary body. With respect to the Venturi-type nozzle, the unitary body includes an upstream annular conically tapered entrance surface, a relatively long condensate collection passageway for forming a condensate steam seal, and a flow-reduction passageway. Downstream, the unitary body includes a condensate discharge-transition passageway and an enlarged-diameter frustoconical discharge passageway for flushing and maintaining a downstream condensate return line clear of debris. |
