Description
BJH-55 Horizontal 11 Gauge Steel Condensate Return System for 25–30 Boiler HP
The BJH-55 horizontal 11 gauge steel condensate return system is built for boiler applications that need a durable boiler feed package with greater pump capacity for heavier steam loads. This unit includes a 18" diameter x 36" long 11 gauge steel horizontal receiver tank, mounted stand, float assembly, gauge glass, and a factory-plumbed Burks CS-series pump package.
Designed for boilers from 25 to 30 HP, this system provides added pump strength and condensate storage for higher-demand applications while maintaining a compact horizontal footprint. The steel tank provides long service life, while the mounted pump and pre-piped assembly reduce installation time in the field.

- Need tank-only replacement later? View the matching 18 x 36 horizontal steel replacement return tank
Best Fit Applications
This system is built for higher-capacity boiler rooms where added pump performance and receiver volume are needed to support heavier condensate return loads.
The 25–30 HP sizing range makes this a strong option for commercial and industrial steam applications that need more pumping capacity than smaller CS-series units while maintaining a compact horizontal layout.

Built for Higher Boiler Loads with Added Pump Capacity
The BJH-55 uses an 18" x 36" 11 gauge steel receiver and a 1.5 HP Burks CS-series pump package, making it a practical choice where added pumping power and condensate storage are needed for 25–30 HP boiler loads. It steps up from smaller CS-series packages while keeping a manageable horizontal layout for mechanical room installations.
If the system remains in service but the tank needs replacement later, the matching 18 x 36 replacement return tank provides a direct tank-only option.
