Thermodynamic Steam Traps

DESCRIPTION
Thermodynamic steam trap in alloy steel construction
with full stainless steel internals. Best suited for
medium/high pressure line drains, with low to medium
condensate load.

SALIENT FEATURES:
! Complete stainless steel internals ensure better

mechanical & corrosion resistance properties.
! Condensate entry below the disc, concentric to the

disc/seat ensures a clean & parallel lift of the disc
with reference to the seat, eliminating localised
wear & tear.
! The disc & seat are fully hardened by a

special hardening process, to withstand
continuous, prolonged operation.
! Perfect shut off, no steam loss.
! Robust, maintenance free, fully guaranteed.

SIZES : DN 15, 20
CONNECTIONS: Socket weld / Flanged*
*End connection flanges are welded on.

Non IBR1 / IBR

LIMITING CONDITIONS:
PMA: Max. allowable pressure
TMA: Max. allowable temp.

65 bar (g)
510ºC

Maximum operating back pressure at the outlet should
not exceed 80% of the inlet pressure
Minimum differential pressure
for satisfactory operation
Cold hydro test pressure

1.5 bar
130 bar (g)

INSTALLATION:
The trap will operate in any position but the preferred
installation is in a horizontal position with the cover on
the top. Full port isolating valves should be installed
upstream and downstream of the trap. Always open
isolation valves slowly until normal operating
conditions are achieved to avoid system shocks.

MAINTENANCE:
All worn or damaged parts should be replaced with
new spares. The disc seat is not replaceable. Ensure
that all gaskets are replaced every time the trap is
dismantled.

IMPORTANT:
The trap should be installed as close as
possible to the line to be drained.
For new pipelines, ensure that the lines are
properly flushed, prior to fitting the traps, to avoid
strainer choke-up.
