Description

The USM21 is a pre-set and maintenance free sealed bimetallic

steam trap manufactured in stainless steel. It is designed for steam

pressures up to 21 bar and applications such as steam tracing

and mains drips. When installed in any position with a suitable

pipeline connector the USM21 can easily and simply be removed

without breaking into the pipeline, thus speeding up trap

replacement with minimal system downtime. Pipeline connectors

are available with screwed, socket weld and flanged connections.

Standards

This product fully complies with the requirements of the European

Pressure Equipment Directive 97 / 23 / EC and carries the

mark

when so required.

Note: The body/cover weld joint complies with ASME section IX.

Certification

This product is available with certification to EN 10204 3.1.
