Condensate trap SH-1600 series

steamautomaticmechanical

Armstrong’s SH-1600 Series Bimetallic Steam Traps operate in superheat conditions, by the effect that rising temperature has on the bimetallic elements. How it Operates: At start-up the valve is wide open allowing a large volume of non-condensables and cold condensate to be removed from the system When the trap reaches steam temperature, the bimetallic elements pull the valve into the seat closing the trap The valve remains closed until the bimetallic elements cool thus allowing the valve to crack open, vent the condensate and non-condensables, and then close again when steam temperature is reached Features & Benefits: Adjusts automatically to changing conditions Utilizes titanium valves and seats to ensure extremely long service life in harsh environments Forged chrome-moly steel construction with integral stainless steel strainer In-line repairable Stacked nickel-chrome bimetal operator with titanium valve and seat Operates on low load and superheat applications through its pressure/temperature range
