The thermodynamic type of steam trap is created for standard applications, designed for standards customer’s requirements, it’s obtained from a machined forged billet.
Steam traps suitable for high pressures and capacities, usable for all applications.
How it works:
- The disc is free and rests on the housing; in the steam trap there is no fluid of any kind.
- Start-up: when the condensate begins to circulate, the disc is prevented from adhering to the housing, making the steam trap discharge the excess condensate.
- As the system heats up, steam begins to arrive, traveling faster than the condensate due to the effect of Bernoulli’s principle; a reduction in pressure is generated inside the housing, forcing the disc to adhering to it and trapping the steam inside.
- When the condensate arrives, the speed of flow will reduce, releasing the disc from the housing and allowing the steam trap to discharge the excess condensate.
