Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the
Free Float Steam 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.
This free float steam trap employs a hinge-less and lever-less free float to rapidly,
automatically and continuously discharge the inflowing condensate that is continuously
generated inside the equipment, thus preventing the accumulation of condensate and
thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency of the equipment.
This steam trap is also of a revolutionary design featuring an integral air vent that
employs a high-performance X-element. The X-element is very sensitive to changes in
temperature, and responds with great accuracy. As a result, air and the large quantities
of condensate created immediately after the start-up of operation are quickly discharged,
thereby greatly reducing start-up time and also proving useful in valve operation (bypass
blowdown) labor-saving.
The X-element is also sensitive to hot air during operation, responding quickly and thus
preventing the occurrence of air binding.
These features make this free float steam trap ideally suited for use on process systems
and equipment (steam-using equipment), and it is especially well-suited for removing
condensate from equipment used for batch operations, which often experience entrained
air during operation.
If detailed instructions for special order specifications or options not contained in this
manual are required, please contact
for full details.
This instruction manual is intended for use with the model(s) listed on the front cover. It is
necessary not only for installation but for subsequent maintenance, disassembly/reassembly
and troubleshooting. Please keep it in a safe place for future reference.
