Overview

The VXT is the first automatic steam boiler water feeder designed to monitor the amount of water added to a steam boiler. The addtion of make-up water raises the oxygen level in a boiler and accumulates lime and other mineral deposits. Excessive boiler make-up water can cause cast iron boilers to rust internally, severely shortening the boiler's life.

Features

Universal Compatibility

The VXT can be used with virtually any probe or float-type low water cut-off. It is available in 120 VAC (Model VXT-120) and 24 VAC (Model VXT-24)

Digital Feed Counter

Brightly illuminated feed counter displays the amount of water added to the boiler - essential in diagnosing water loss problems that can severly shorten the life of a steam boiler. Built-in memory prevents power interruptions from clearing the counter

Programmable Feed Delay Settings

Helps prevent flooded boilers. Allows time for condensate to return to the boiler before starting feed cycle - ensuring that additional water is needed

Programmable Feed Amount Settings

Six settings provide two ways to feed. 1-5 gallon settings now feed above the low water cut-off to restore the boiler's normal operating level. Or, select LWCO setting to end the feed cycke when the low water cut-off re-energizes the burner circuit.

Manual Feed Button

Allows for additional make-up water at the touch of a button. Manual feed amounts are recorded and added to the total gallons displayed by the feed counter.

Underfeed Protection

If one feed cycle is not sufficient to restore boiler operation, the VXT will delay and feed one additional cycle

Lockout Flood Protection

The VXT locks-out to prevent steam system flooding and costly water damage if burner operation does not resume after two consecutive feed cycles
