Maintenance
Warning!
Hot discharge from the trap may cause severe
burns. Shut off steam supply and make sure that the
trap is cool to touch before repairing or inspecting.
The trap can be maintained without disturbing the
1.
piping connections. Ensure that the trap is isolated
- upstream and downstream - before attempting to
dismantle it. ALLOW THE TRAP TO COOL BE-
FORE DISMANTLING.
The Steriflow disc trap can be cleaned or repaired
2.
by removing the disc and leaving the body in the
pipe line.
Before loosening the cap, the trap must be isolated
3.
from both, live steam lines and condensate return
lines. Open the blowdown valve to relieve trapped
pressure and allow time for the trap to cool.
Remove the cap and disc.
4.
Dirt and deposits can cause erratic operation. Disc
5.
can be removed from inspection and sealing sur-
faces can be wiped with a cleaning solvent. Periodic
cleaning of the disc and seat will facilitate trouble-
free performance. DO NOT USE ABRASIVES /
CORROSIVE MEDIA FOR CLEANING.
If surface is scratched or worn, replace with a new
6.
factory-lapped disc. Only the disc and seat are
subject to wear. A worn disc can be replaced and
slight seat wear can be corrected by resurfacing a
lap plate.
Lubricate the cap threads sparingly with anti-seize
7.
compound, taking care not to apply to disc or seat
surfaces.
Tighten cap until firmly seated, approximately 80 -
8.
85 ft-lbs. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN.
