Installation The trap is designed for installation with the capsule in a horizontal plane and the cap at the top, preferably with a drop leg immediately preceding the trap. See IM-P126-05 for full installation details. Warning : Under certain conditions corrosive elements in condensate can effect the inside face of the sight tube, particularly where caustic alkali and hydrofluoric acid are present. It is recommended that the sight tube is periodically checked for thinning. If there is evidence of thinning or erosion damage then the sight tube should be replaced immediately. Always wear eye protection when viewing the contents of the sight tube. Reasonable steps should be taken to protect personnel from injury in the unlikely event that the sight tube breaks.
Operation The trap is supplied in the ' Bypass ' position ( 1 ). To move it to 'Trap' ( 2 ) or 'Stop' ( 3 ) position the actuator should be moved until the indicator aligns with the marking on the body.
