Steam Products

Steam traps are automatic valves that filter out condensate and non-condensable gases such as air without allowing steam to escape. In the industry, steam is utilized regularly for heating or as driving energy for mechanical power. Steam traps prevent condensation from being wasted. There are three types of steam traps thermostatic, mechanical, and thermodynamic. Thermostatic steam traps act in response to the surrounding steam temperature. There are three types of thermostatic steam traps liquid expansion traps, bimetallic and balanced pressure thermostatic traps. Each operates differently and is suited to specific kinds of applications. Mechanical steam traps depend on the difference in density between steam and condensate. They can constantly pass large volumes of condensate and are fit for a wide range of process applications. Mechanical steam trap types include ball float and inverted bucket steam traps.
