Thermostatic Steam Trap
They have a valve that is driven on / off the seat by either expansion / contraction caused by temperature differ from mechanical traps in that their design requires them to hold back some condensate waiting for it to cool sufficiently to allow the valve to open.
• Maintainable strainer design
• Thermostatic element designed for wide pressure range.
• Functional test- 100% on Steam

• Thermostatic steam traps are also commonly used as air vents in steam systems.
• These traps used largely on tracing lines or Tank Farms where steam is supplied to maintain Temp / viscosity of the Oil.
• Intermittent operation
• Fair energy conservation
• Fair resistance to wear
• Good corrosion resistance
• Excellent operation against back pressure
