An integrated pressure condensing boiler is provided which relates to the technical field of boilers. The integrated pressure condensing boiler includes a pressure-bearing housing, a heat-exchange furnace arranged in the pressure-bearing housing, a combustion chamber communicating with the heat-exchange furnace and cooling tube groups fixed in the heat-exchange furnace. Heat-exchange medium flows from bottom to top in the pressure-bearing housing and in the cooling tube groups, and exchanges heat with high-temperature flue gas flowing from top to bottom in the heat-exchange furnace, thus achieving a counterflow heat exchanging. The heat-exchange furnace includes a multi-stage heat-exchange chamber with each heat-exchange chamber being cylindrical. The heat-exchange chambers are arranged in sequence from top to bottom to achieve a flue gas diffusing manner that high-temperature flue gas diffuses from center part to periphery and then gathers from periphery to center part.

A fluid discharge event detection apparatus measures a change in capacitance to detect the presence of a fluid in a sensing conduit where the presence of fluid indicates a discharge event. The apparatus includes a first conduit, the sensing conduit and a control valve, coupled between the first conduit and the sensing conduit. The control valve is configured to activate and fluidly couple the first conduit and the sensing conduit to one another when the control valve detects at least one predetermined condition of a fluid within the first conduit. A sensor, configured to measure a capacitance value, is disposed about the sensing conduit. A controller, coupled to the sensor, is configured to detect a change in the sensing conduit capacitance value and assert an alarm condition upon detection of the change in the sensing conduit capacitance value.

A trap apparatus of condensate water according to the present invention comprises: a neutralizing part including an inlet through which condensate water is introduced, an internal space for containing a neutralizing agent for neutralizing the introduced condensate water, and a condensate water passage through which the condensate water that was neutralized by the neutralizing agent in the internal space is discharged; a discharge part including a storage space for storing the condensate water which is directly or indirectly introduced through the condensate water passage, an outlet which is open in a circular shape so as to discharge the stored condensate water, and a spherical ball capable of closing the outlet by being seated on the outlet, wherein the ball is spaced from the outlet by buoyancy of the condensate water when the condensate water is contained in the storage space above a critical water level, such that the condensate water can be discharged through the outlet, and the condensate water can be neutralized simultaneously with discharging of only the condensate water without exhaust gas.

A flue collector box for a furnace having a cooling coil, a heat exchanger, and an inducer blower includes a housing having an interior chamber in fluid communication with the heat exchanger such that condensation generated in the heat exchanger flows to the interior chamber of the housing. A valve is connected to the housing and includes a pair of lips defining a fluid passage through the valve in fluid communication with the interior chamber. The lips have an open condition allowing condensation to exit the valve when the inducer blower is deactivated. The lips have a closed condition forcefully engaging one another when the inducer blower is activated to prevent condensation from exiting the valve.
