The Thermodynamic Steam Trap is simple and compact with a single moving part (disc) which opens to discharge condensate and closes in the presence of steam. Body materials are available in Stainless and Alloy Steels for pressures up to 3,600 psig. It is widely used in higher pressure drip applications and critical tracing applications where condensate back-up is not permitted.
Applications: Draining condensate from steam mains and steam supply lines. They can also be used for steam tracing applications.
The WT2500 is a Medium Capacity Thermostatic steam trap. They can be used as drip traps for removing condensate as well as air from steam mains. They are also used for removing condensate and air in process applications or for steam tracing. It is available in 1/2 and 3/4 NPT threaded connections. The WT2500 is also commonly used as an air vent for heat exchangers. It is fully in-line repairable by removing the cover and replacing the seat and thermal element. It is NOT available with a strainer.
Helpful Selection Information: Two orifice sizes are available: 5/16 standard capacity or 3/16 reduced capacity. The 5/16 orifice is generally used on process applications and the 3/16 reduced orifice is used for steam tracing or on drip applications.
