FTT Series steam traps with in-line pipe connections are used for the removal of condensate and air in HVac and industrial process applications such as unit heaters, water heaters, pressing machines, heat exchangers and coils. They contain a high-quality welded stainless steel thermostatic air vent and stainless seat and mechanism.
F and T traps have excellent air handling capability, making them a better choice than Inverted Bucket traps for most process applications. For drip applications, such as draining steam mains and steam supply lines, use 1/2" or 3/4" sizes.
Features
Ductile Iron has a higher pressure and temperature rating and is more resistant to shock loads than cast Iron
All stainless steel internals with hardened seat and wear parts
In-line repairability is simplified by having all internals attached to the cover
Welded stainless steel thermostatic air vent resists shock from waterhammer. Live orifice air vent is available for superheated applications
Excellent air handling capability allows air to be discharged rapidly so steam can enter the system quickly during start-up
F and T traps discharge condensate immediately as it is formed (no condensate will back up into the system)
