Checking the Piping 

 

 

Use only under conditions in which no water hammer will occur. The 

impact of water hammer may damage the product, leading to fluid 

discharge, which may cause burns or other injury.

 

CAUTION 

Check to make sure that the pipes to be connected to the trap have been installed 
properly. 

1.  Is the pipe diameter suitable? 
2.  Is the piping where the trap is to be installed horizontal? 
3.  Has sufficient space been secured for maintenance? 
4.  Have isolation valves been installed at the inlet and outlet? If the outlet is subject 

to back pressure, has a check valve (TLV-CK) been installed? 

5.  Is the inlet pipe as short as possible, with as few bends as possible, and installed 

so the liquid will flow naturally down into the trap? 

6.  Has the piping work been done correctly, as shown in the figures below? 
 

Requirement 

Correct 

Incorrect 

Install catchpot with the 
proper diameter. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

Diameter is too small. 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Make sure the flow of 
condensate is not 
obstructed. 

 

 

Diameter is too small and inlet 

protrudes into pipe interior. 

To prevent rust and scale 
from flowing into the trap, 
the inlet pipe should be 
connected 25 – 50 mm 
above the base of the 
T-pipe. 

 

 

Rust and scale flow into the 

trap with the condensate. 

When installing on the 
blind end, make sure the 
flow of condensate is not 
obstructed. 

 

 

Condensate collects in the 

pipe.
