General Description

Application
The PowerTrap is used to discharge liquid from vacuum-pressure or low-pressure areas to
high-pressure areas, or from lower to higher elevations.
The PowerTrap GP14-B has an integrated pumping function that can eliminate and pump out
condensate even if condensate cannot be discharged due to very low supply steam pressure
because of reduced load in the steam-using equipment (this phenomenon is referred to in this
document as ‘stall’).
There are two types of delivery systems (piping methods): the closed system and the open
system. The PowerTrap GP14-B you have purchased is a suitable model for both (for closed
system, please install a steam trap at the PowerTrap outlet).
