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. In addition, the integral
bimetal type automatic air vent allows for the rapid release of start-up air and thereby
reduces start-up time.
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.
This steam trap also employs a precision-ground float and three-point seating that
supports the float securely at three points and ensures a high degree of sealing when
even only minute quantities of condensate are present.
This free float steam trap is also ideal for places at which extremely small amounts of
condensate are generated, such as superheated and saturated steam mains and
branches, and trace lines.
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.
