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 uses a universal flange, a precision-polished float and
three-point support for the valve body. With no hinges or levers, the trap
automatically continuously discharges condensate, preventing it from collecting.
The three-point seating for the valve body supports the precision-polished float
securely at three points and ensures a high degree of sealing for even minute
quantities of condensate. The universal flange allows the trap to be installed in
either horizontal or vertical piping. This flexibility greatly reduces the time
required for installation and removal, as compared to conventional steam traps,
and also facilitates repair and maintenance operations.
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.
