Installation 

 

 

Install properly and DO NOT use this product outside the recommended 

operating pressure, temperature and other specification ranges. 

Improper use may result in such hazards as damage to the product or 

malfunctions which may lead to serious accidents. Local regulations 

may restrict the use of this product to below the conditions quoted.

 

CAUTION 

 

 

Take measures to prevent people from coming into direct contact with 

product outlets. Failure to do so may result in burns or other injury from 

the discharge of fluids.

 

CAUTION 

 

 

Do not use excessive force when connecting threaded pipes to the 

product. Over-tightening may cause breakage leading to fluid 

discharge, which may cause burns or other injury.

 

CAUTION 

Installation, inspection, maintenance, repairs, disassembly, adjustment and valve 
opening/closing should be carried out only by trained maintenance personnel. 
1.  Before installation, be sure to remove all protective seals. 
2.  Before installing the product, open the inlet valve and blow out the piping to 

remove any piping scraps, dirt and oil. Close the inlet valve after blowdown. 

3.  Install the product so the arrow on the body is pointing in the direction of flow. 
4.  The trap should be inclined no more than 5° horizontally and front-to-back. 
5.  To insure proper condensate flow into the trap, remove the balancing line plug 

and install a pressure-balancing line. Connect the end of the pressure-balancing 
line to the air main or an area with an air pocket. For more details, see the section 
“The Need for a Pressure-balancing Line”. 

6.  To facilitate inspection and maintenance, install a union or a flange where the 

product has connections (inlet, pressure-balancing line, condensate outlet). For 
more details, see the section “The Need for a Pressure-balancing Line”. 

7.  After priming through the pressure-balancing port, open the inlet valve and check 

to make sure that the product functions properly. 

If there is a problem, determine the cause using the “Troubleshooting” section in this 
manual.

 

 

 
 

 

 
 
 
 

Tolerance Angle for Installation - 5°

 

Make sure the trap is installed with the raised 

  lettering on the body horizontal.
