During startup, air and non-condensible gases
enter the trap and are automatically vented
through an accurate balanced pressure internal
thermostatic air vent. As condensate enters the
trap, the float and lever mechanism is raised,
lifting the valve off the seat, discharging the condensate.
Condensate will continue to be discharged at the same
rate at which it is entering. Any air or non-condensible gas
that may accumulate will be continually and efficiently
passed by the thermostatic air vent.
