Pressure/temperature limits

Steam saturation curve

Pressure bar g

The product must not be used in this region.

Notes: 1. If flange connections are fitted then these will limit the maximum design conditions of the pipeline connector. 2. The maximum operating limits of the complete assembly will be dictated by the steam trap of choice. Reference the specific steam trap technical information sheet for its 'Pressure / temperature limits'.

Body design conditions

ASME class 600

99.3 bar g @ 38 ° C

PMA Maximum allowable pressure

425 ° C @ 56 bar g

TMA Maximum allowable temperature

PMO Maximum operating pressure for saturated steam service

62 bar g

425 ° C @ 56 bar g

TMO Maximum operating temperature
