Float and thermostatic steam traps contain a float valve mechanism which modulates to discharge condensate continuously at steam temperature, while non-condensable gases are released by a separate internal balanced pressure thermosatic air vent. Stainless steel internal parts can be serviced without disturbing the piping connections.
Typical applications:
- All process equipment, particularly when controlled by modulating temperature control valves
- Unit heaters
- Air heat coils
- Heat exchangers
- Steam main drip stations
