Safety information, installation and maintenance

For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions (IM-P605-02) supplied with the product.

Installation note:

FT_23 ball float steam traps must be installed below the draining point with the direction of flow as indicated on the body and with the

float lever positioned in a horizontal plane so that it rises and falls freely. For optimum working conditions and protection of the unit it is

recommended that a strainer be installed upstream to prevent possible damage to the internal mechanism and to ensure peak operation

within your plant.

In order to allow simple and safe inspection for cleaning or maintenance purposes install suitable isolation valves. If the trap is to

discharge to atmosphere ensure that it is to a safe place, the discharged medium may be at a temperature of 100°C. In order to ensure

an efficient discharge of incondensable medium, it is recommended that a balance line be connected to a drain system (reference the

Installation and Maintenance Instructions that are supplied with the unit).

Disposal

The product is recyclable. No ecological hazard is anticipated with the disposal of this product providing due care is taken.

In the event that, during the operation, the trap comes into contact with harmful substances, you will need to dispose of it in accordance

with regulations under the current legislation.
