Benefits and Features The interior of these steam traps is designed to prevent corrosion and bacterial growth. All components are made of stainless steel. Interior and exterior surfaces of the steam trap as well as the Free Float® itself are highly polished to produce smooth surfaces for improved resistance to bacterial growth. The clamp connection at the joint allows for easy disassembly and cleaning. A small built-in drain hole ensures complete condensate drainage to prevent the pooling of fluid. Excellent Reliability The float rises and sinks as the flow of condensate fluctuates, opening the valve to discharge condensate and closing off the valve when steam enters. Free Float® design provides reliable operation. Application Areas Condensate removal from clean and pure steam. Main Applications Bio industries, manufacture of pharmaceuticals, medical sterilizers, food production, etc. Product Selection by Application This guide shows the most suitable TLV steam traps for an array of applications. Start by selecting an application from the drop-down menu at the top, then search for your desired operation principle, pressure category, and other special features to find the right steam trap.

In such cases, GT Series PowerTraps are required. GT Series PowerTraps are steam traps that feature a pump function. GT Series PowerTraps *2 Operating pressures vary between different models of the same series. For details please refer to individual Specification Data Sheets (SDS). *3 "Stall" is a phenomenon where the internal pressure of an equipment falls below the back pressure on the outlet side, resulting in back-up of condensate that cannot be discharged by conventional steam traps. "Stall" can cause damage such as uneven/incomplete product heating, corrosion and waterhammer.
