Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the
balanced pressure thermostatic 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 steam trap is of a revolutionary design that uses a high-performance
X-element. This is a new type of valve mechanism in which a thermoliquid is
sealed inside the X-element and the valve opens or closes based on the
difference between the saturation temperatures of the thermoliquid and the
water. The X-element is very sensitive to changes in temperature, and
responds with great accuracy, quickly discharging air and the large quantities of
condensate created immediately after operation start-up, thereby greatly
reducing start-up time. It also reacts with great sensitivity to the inflow of large
quantities of condensate and hot air during operation, preventing air binding.
The superior features of this steam trap’s X-element increase heating efficiency
and reduce manpower requirements for maintenance and bypass blowdown.
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.
