In today's world of automation, compressed air is used in many industries including high-precision machinery and instrumentation. After air is compressed it is cooled by an after-cooler or in a receiver tank, where condensate is formed from water droplets in the air.
This condensate also occurs in compressed air distribution piping, leading to rust and fluctuation in high-precision machinery, as well as causing a reduction in product quality.
TLV air traps protect your equipment and products by discharging condensate automatically.
Benefits and Features
Long Service Life
The high precision spherical float rotates, allowing its entire surface to function as valve sealing surfaces and thus ensuring long service life.
Continuous Condensate Discharge
The float adjusts quickly to changes in condensate flow adjusting the valve seat opening, ensuring continuous rapid discharge without condensate backup.
Rubber Valve Seat for Tight Sealing
The standardized rubber valve seat allows for tight sealing with the precision ground float.
Valve Seat Cleaning Mechanism
Equipped with an external plunger unit, blockage caused by oils and/or scale can be easily eliminated.(JA Series / JAH Series)
Application Areas
Discharge of condensate in air lines (end of piping after receiver tanks, after coolers, etc.)
Small compressed air lines (JA3D, JA3, JAF3)
Medium compressed air lines (JA5, JAF5)
Larger compressed air lines (JA7, JA7.2, JAH7.2R, JA7.5, JAH7.5R, JA8, JAH8R)
