LIQUIDATOR 450
THERMOSTATIC TRAP
Thermal actuator is filled at its free length with
a liquid having a lower boiling point than water.
On start-up, valve is normally open. When
steam enters trap, thermal actuator fill
vaporizes to a pressure higher than line
pressure. This forces valve into seat orifice to
prevent any further flow. As condensate
collects, it takes heat from thermal actuator,
lowering internal pressure. Line pressure will then compress
thermal actuator to open valve and discharge condensate.
Valve opening automatically adjusts to load conditions from
minimum on very light loads to full lift at maximum load.
Restricted orifice in UMT451T (small opening at bottom of
valve seat) prevents trap from discharging continuously on
light loads such as are encountered on tracer lines.
LIQUIDATOR 450 SERIES
UNIVERSAL MOUNT THERMOSTATIC
STEAM TRAPS
Pressures to 450 PSIG (31 barg)
Temperatures to 600°F (316°C)
Easily Maintained — Universal two bolt swivel mounting
simplifies removal from system. Kits allow flexibility to
replace or rebuild.
Simple Installation — Stainless mounting block mounts
permanently into system. Trap installs via two bolt universal
connection.
Improved Energy Savings — High efficiency–maximum
elimination of air and non-condensibles.
Temperature Sensitive Actuators — One moving part.
Stainless Steel, fail open, welded actuator for maximum
corrosion, thermal and hydraulic shock resistance.
Hardened Stainless Steel Valve and Seat — Long life.
Lapped as a matched set for water tight seal.
Easily Maintained — Can be inspected and serviced
without breaking pipe connections.
Freeze Proof — Self draining when installed vertically.
For Superheated Steam Applications — Because the
trap closes at saturated steam temperature, superheated
steam cannot reach trap.
Air Vent — Efficient steam service air vent when equipped
with ISO filled Actuator and installed in air vent location.
Guaranteed — Traps are guaranteed against defects in
materials or workmanship for three years.
Positive Shutoff and Long Life — Integral Stainless Steel
Strainer helps prevent debris depositing on valve and seat.
