Weight lbs: 3
Cross Ref: 3LEX3N-TZ
Connection: NPT
Series: WT5000
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 WT5000 is specifically designed for steam tracing applications when accurate and adjustable control of condensate discharge temperature is desired. Can be used where a temperature sensitive medium is being transferred in piping system or held in a storage vessel and standard steam tracing methods may not be adequate to maintain specific product temperatures. Having the ability to adjust the condensate discharge temperature would allow for accurate temperature control of the product being traced. The Body is made from Stainless Steel and is fully repairable while the product remains in-line. They are available in 3/8 thru 1 NPT and Socket Weld connections. Maximum Operating Pressure is 650 PSIG.
Note: Initial Opening Temperature of the trap can be set from 120˚F to 390˚F.
