BT16 flanged
Inverted bucket steam trap, BT16
flanged (DN15 – 20 – 25)
Description
BT-16 inverted bucket steam traps have high strength construction structure so they are water hammer resistent.
The same diameter steam traps have different orifi ce diameters for evacuation of variable loads. Inverted Bucket Steam Traps evacuate the condensate when it appears that’s why their heat efficiency is high. When the steam enters the steam trap, steam moves upwards to the bucket. Steam traps close with the closing system which is fixed to bucket so steam exists in the bucket. Because of the heat loss at steam trap body, steam becomes condensate and bucket moves downward. Steam trap opens with the valve system
which is fixed to the bucket and condensate is evacuated.
BT-16 inverted bucket system has to be filled halfway with water at the first operation. Orifice and counterpart are made of hardened stainless steel. Strainers should be placed before the steam traps.
