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 that may lead to serious accidents. Local regulations may restrict
the use of this product to below the conditions quoted.
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.
NOTE: For products with socket weld connections, electric weld with a single pass.
As internal parts are not damaged by the welding process when it is limited to a
single pass, there is no need to remove them before welding.
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 may be installed either horizontally or vertically; there are no restrictions
on the orientation of installation. (Fix the trap securely in place.)
5. Install a condensate outlet valve and outlet piping. Make sure that the outlet
piping is large enough to prevent occurrence of excessive backpressure.
(Backpressure must not exceed 50% of the inlet steam pressure.)
6. To make sure that the product functions properly, first open the outlet valve fully.
Next carefully perform the following start-up procedure:
