The thermostatic bimetallic pack type of steam trap is created for standard applications, designed for standards customer’s requirements, it’s obtained from a machined forged billet.
How it works:
- The bimetallic pack inside the capsule attached to the housing is raised.
- Start-up: when the condensate begins to circulate, the bimetal is prevented from reacting to the low temperature, keeping the shutter in the open position.
- As the system heats up, the condensate reduces and steam begins to arrive, heating the bimetal, which reacts by bending. The combined force generated by the pack of bimetallic discs creates a movement on the shutter, lifting it until it comes into contact with the housing.
- As the condensate accumulates, the bimetal cools, contracting and releasing the shutter, which in turn frees the flow.
