SK55
Float type steam trap, SK55
threaded and flanged (Ø 1 1/4″ – 2″ / DN32 – 50)
Art: SK55
Description
Through a simple lever mechanism a fl oat opens or closes the valve according to the condensate level inside the trap. The opening is proportional to condensate rate. It is unaffected by instantaneous pressure changes. This type of steam traps is used specially where prompt and continuous discharge of condensate is necessary.
For such cases fl oat traps are the ideal traps as well as automatically control systems to provide adequate heat transfer.
Tecnical description
Typical applications:
- Heat exchangers
- Heating batteries
- Tanks
- Pans
- Drying cylinders
- Ovens
Installation:
- The steam trap must be fi tted with the fl oat arm in horizontal plane so that the fl oat rises and falls vertically in the body.
