The IBV series C inverted bucket steam trap is manufactured
using carbon steel for the body and cover; with internal
components being made of stainless steel. It is suitable for
use with saturated and superheated steam and in high pressure
and high temperature applications. The IBV is fully automatic
and has been designed in such a way that there is minimal
friction from mechanism movement; valve closure is immediate,
without any steam loss and the discharge action is positive with
no equivocal phases.
On the cover of the IBV there in a " hole, threaded and
plugged, to eliminate any water discharge after being hydraulically
tested before leaving the factory. This hole can be reopened on
site for the customer to perform periodic hydro testing.
