System Description

EN
Thermostatic steam traps with corrosion-resistant membrane regulator unaffected
by waterhammer. Particularly suited for steam heating plants and other low-pressure
steam installations.The standard design features a 5U2 capsule (undercooling) and
discharges condensate at approx.
30 K (degC) below the saturated steam temperature.
Steam traps equipped with 5N2 capsules discharge condensate at approx. 10 K (degC)
below the saturated steam temperature.
The trap is supplied as a straight-through valve. It can be turned into an angle valve by
changing the position of the plug .
F
Function
Within its pressure/temperature range the steam trap opens irrespective of the actual
pressure a few degrees below boiling point and closes right before the boiling point is
reached.
