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 is a revolutionary design that employs a high-performance
X-element as an air vent. It is best suited for steam equipment use. The X-element is
very sensitive to changes in temperature, and responds with great accuracy, allowing
for the quick discharge of large quantities of initial air and cold condensate
immediately after operation start-up, reducing start-up times. It also reacts with great
sensitivity to the inflow of large quantities of condensate and hot air during operation,
preventing air binding.
This steam trap, which combines the superior features of the X-element with the
proven performance record of the free float, increases heating efficiency and
reduces 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,

future reference.
