Clean Steam Traps

Free Float® steam traps for clean steam. Designed to allow complete condensate drainage and easy disassembly for cleaning.
Operating Pressure Range: 0 - 6 barg
Operating Temperature Range: 0 - 165 °C
Product Selection by Application
Product Details
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.

*1 Depending on the operation condition, the indicated equipment may be subject to "stall" (see *3 below). 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.
