Safety information, installation and maintenance For full details see the Installation and Maintenance Instructions (IM-P603-03) supplied with the product. Installation note
8.5 162
The trap is designed for installation with the float arm in a horizontal plane so that it rises and falls vertically, ideally with a drop leg immediately preceding the trap. Suitable isolation valves must be installed to allow for safe maintenance / replacement. Where steam traps are fitted in exposed conditions, the possibility of freezing damage may be reduced by thermal insulation / draining / isolation. For DN15 – DN25 sizes It is recommended that a strainer, with a screen having 0.8 mm perforations, is installed upstream of the unit to ensure adequate removal of dirt from the steam system. For DN40 – DN50 sizes It is recommended that a strainer, with a 40 mesh screen, is installed upstream of the unit to ensure adequate removal of dirt from the steam system. Maintenance note Maintenance can be completed with the trap in the pipeline, once the safety procedures have been observed. It is recommended that new gaskets and spares are used whenever maintenance is undertaken. Caution The cover gasket and main valve assembly gasket may contain a thin stainless steel support ring which may cause physical injury if it is not handled and disposed of carefully. Disposal No ecological hazard is anticipated with the disposal of this product provided due care is taken.
