Why pressure powered pump package used for condensate recovery instead of centrifugal pump..? And is there any possiibilities of back pressure in condensate recovery line to ppu package ?

Pressure powered pumps use the steam that is locally available to motivate the condensate through a float trap. They only operate as needed and require no electrical connections. Centrifugal pumps are more suited to continual operation. If there were back pressure in condensate recovery line to a pressure powered pump, what would be the harm?
