The IBV series C-LF2 inverted bucket steam trap is manufactured
using carbon steel (A350 LF2) 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.
