Inverted bucket e steam trap, BT16

threaded (Ø 1/2″ – 1″)

Art: BT16

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 effi ciency is high. When the steam enters the steam trap, steam moves upwards to the bucket. Steam traps close with the closing system which is fi xed 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 fi xed to the bucket and condensate is evacuated.
BT-16 inverted bucket system has to be fi lled halfway with water at the fi rst operation. Orifi ce and counterpart are made of hardened stainless steel. Strainers should be placed before the steam traps.
