Benefits and Features

Energy Conservation
Recovers and transports condensate in order to recycle heat energy and water resources.
The snap-action mechanism rapidly switches between sending condensate to the mechanical pump and transporting the condensate, preventing delay-induced leakage of motive medium (steam).
'Stall' prevention
The steam-using equipment installing the control valve has a tendency to stall, resulting in process temperature swings, water hammer, and/or tube corosion. By installing PowerTrap®, this stall phenomenon can be prevented.
Easy to Operate
The GT series has an integral steam trap, making it suitable for condensate recovery from equipment that experiences pressure fluctuations from negative to positive pressure.
The unit is powered by steam, so there is no need for electrical facilities, which makes it suitable for use in explosion-proof installations and other environments where electrical power supply is not an option.
Designed to allow maintenance without being removed from condensate recovery lines.
