Stainless Steel GT5C PowerTrap® for Food and Pharmaceuticals
TLV is pleased to announce the release of the Stainless Steel (A351 Gr.CF8M) GT5C PowerTrap® Mechanical Pump/Trap.
Since the launch of the cast iron GT5C in October 2007, TLV has received numerous requests from various industries – particularly Food, Pharmaceutical and Chemical – for an alternative to the cast iron version.
The Stainless Steel version of the GT5C is suitable for these industries because:
- Stainless Steel is resistant to rust from washing. (Frequent cleaning with water is performed in Food and Pharmaceutical plants, which may cause cast iron to rust if located on the floor).
- Some industries (like Chemical) will not use cast iron products in their plants.

Release Date: Currently available
Specifications: 327 kb
Connection: Screwed*
* A screwed-in DIN PN16 Flange is available in Europe
The Stainless Steel GT5C has the same capacity, pressure and temperature specifications as the cast iron version. The only differences are a slightly lower weight, and a slightly changed location for the Exhaust Outlet Port.
