Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the
free float gas trap.
This product has been thoroughly inspected before being shipped from the factory.
When the product is delivered, before doing anything else, check the specifications
and external appearance to make sure nothing is out of the ordinary. Also be sure to
read this manual carefully before use and follow the instructions to be sure of using
the product properly.
If this product is used with toxic, flammable or otherwise hazardous fluids, all
responsibility for regulatory compliance, product selection (including materials), handling,
safety measures, etc. for the hazardous fluid(s) must be borne by the customer.
Under no circumstances will TLV CO., LTD. be liable for consequential economic
loss damage or consequential damage to property or persons caused by explosions,
poisoning or other accidents due to use with hazardous fluids.
This free float gas trap uses a precision-polished float and three-point seating for the
valve body. With no hinges or levers, the trap continuously discharges condensate,
preventing it from collecting. The three-point seating supports the precision-polished
float securely at three points and ensures a high degree of sealing when even only
minute quantities of condensate are present. The trap can also be disassembled and
reassembled while still installed in the piping, which results in considerable time
savings and facilitates repair and maintenance.
This gas trap’s outstanding features of the precision-polished float and three-point
seating, combined with a mechanism that has a proven record of success, increase
the efficiency of a variety of systems and reduce time and labor needed for
maintenance and bypass blowdown operations.
