5. Inverted bucket steam traps

Inverted bucket traps are the most robust type of the

mechanical traps and will resist waterhammer. When the check

valve option has been fitted in the inlet, they can be used with

superheated steam. They are available with a wide selection of

valve orifices for precise pressure and load matching.

Sizes up to DN80.

For pressures up to 190 bar.

Body material: cast iron, cast steel, alloy steel or

stainless steel.

6. Bimetallic thermostatic steam traps

Bimetallic steam traps can conserve energy by discharging

sub-cooled condensate in those applications which can utilise

sensible heat. They are the most robust of all the thermostatic

steam traps, being able to withstand waterhammer and

corrosive condensate.

Sizes up to DN100.

For pressures up to 210 bar.

Body material: cast steel, alloy steel or stainless steel.

7. Spiratec steam trap monitors

Every steam trap that fails to operate properly can cause

problems elsewhere in the steam system. Spiratec can

continuously monitor your steam traps to show their operation

and warn of malfunctions.

It will detect if traps are passing live steam or if they are

waterlogged.

The system either uses sensor chambers mounted

upstream of conventional steam traps, or integral

sensors in pipeline connectors or steam traps, giving a

signal to an external test point.

Sizes up to DN50.

For pressures up to 32 bar.

Body material: carbon steel, SG iron or stainless steel.

8. Quickfit steam traps

The comprehensive range of pipeline connectors

coupled with world leading steam trap technology

reduces plant downtime, maintenance costs and ensures

zero emissions, whilst maintaining system efficiency.

Range: Suitable for use with balanced pressure,

thermodynamic, inverted bucket, float and bimetallic

steam traps.

Sizes up to DN25.

For pressures up to 46 bar.

Body material: generally stainless steel.
