Important Notes
Usage for the intended purpose
Use steam trap only for discharging condensate or air-venting from steam lines. Use the equipment only within the allowable pressure and temperature ratings and only if the chemical and corrosive influences on the equipment are taken into account.
Safety note
Installation, commissioning, retrofitting and maintenance work must only be performed by qualified staff who – through adequate training – have achieved a recognised level of competence.
Danger
The equipment is under pressure and hot during operation. Risk of severe burns and injuries to the whole body.
Installation and maintenance work should only be carried out when the system is depres­surized (0 bar) and cold (20 °C).
The equipment must be isolated and vented from both upstream and downstream pres­sure before installation or maintenance work is performed.
Sharp edges on internals present a danger of cuts to hands. Always wear industrial gloves when servicing the equipment.
Attention
The name plate specifies the technical features of the equipment. Do not commission or operate any item of equipment that does not bear its specific name plate. The pressure and temperature ratings on the name plate of the equipment must meet the requirementes of the installation.
PED (Pressure Equipment Directive)
The equipment fulfills the requirements of the Pressure Equipment Directive PED 97/23/EC. For use with fluids of group 2. The equipment is excluded from the scope of the PED according to section 3.3 and must not bear a CE marking.
ATEX (Atmosphère Explosible)
The equipment does not have ist own potential source of ignition and is therefore not subject to the ATEX Directive 94/9/EC. Applicable in Ex zones 0, 1, 2, 20, 21, 22 (1999/92/EC). The equipment is not Ex marked.
Explanatory Notes
Scope of supply
BK 45:
1 Steam trap BK 45 1 Installation manual
Description
Thermostatic/thermodynamic steam trap with corrosion resistant Thermovit® regulator (bimetallic plates) able to withstand waterhammer. With internal strainer and integral non-return valve action. Asbestos-free body gasket (graphite/CrNi).
The standard version discharges the condensate with virutally no banking-up, the version “U” with approx. 30 K undercooling.
Function
During start-up of the plant the steam trap is completely open. Cold condensate and air are dis­charged. As the temperature rises, the bimetallic plates deflect, drawing the stage nozzle towards the closed position.
Just before the condensate reaches saturated steam temperature the orifice will be shut off tight. The thermodynamic effect of the stage nozzle chamber assists in the closing process.
The steam trap provides automatic air-venting at start-up and during operation of the plant and can also be used for thermal air-venting.

Corrosion resistance
If the equipment is used for the intended purpose, its safety is not impaired by corrosion.
Name plate / marking
The temperature/pressure ratings are indicated on the trap body or on the name plate. For more information see GESTRA technical documents such as data sheets and the Technical Information.
The name plate or the trap body indicate the type and design:

Installation
BK 45, BK 45U, BK 46
When installing the steam trap make sure that the flow arrow on the trap body matches the direction of flow of the steam. Preferred installation of the steam trap with the strainer insert hanging down­wards to facilitate cleaning. Other installation orientations are possible, please consult the factory with installation details. We recommend not to insulate the steam trap.
Danger
The equipment is under pressure and hot during operation. Risk of severe burns and injuries to the whole body.
Installation and maintenance work should only be carried out when the system is depres­surized (0 bar) and cold (20 °C).
The equipment must be isolated and vented from both upstream and downstream pres­sure before installation or maintenance work is performed.
Sharp edges on internals present a danger of cuts to hands. Always wear industrial gloves when servicing the equipment.
Installation instructions
1.
Make sure that the flow arrow on the trap body matches the direction of flow of the steam.
2. Consider space required for servicing the trap. When the trap is installed a minimum withdrawal
space for servicing is required for removing trap parts (see Design, Component Parts BK...).
3. Remove plastic plugs. They are only used as transit protection.
4. Clean end connections.
5.1 Install steam trap with releasable end connections (e. g. flanges).
5.2 For equipment with socket-weld ends or butt-weld ends: Apply arc welding processes 111 and 141 according to ISO 4063 (or equivalent standard).
Attention
Welded trap installation should only be performed by qualified welders (certified ac-
cording to DIN EN 287 or equivalent).

Commissioning Procedure
Make sure that all connections are subjected to a suitable pressure test according to the pertinent rules and regulations.

BK 45, BK 45U, BK 46
GESTRA steam traps BK 45, BK 45U and BK 46 do not require any special maintenance. However, If used in new installations which have not been rinsed check and clean the Thermovit regu­lator after the commissioning procedure.
Checking steam traps
You can check the GESTRA steam traps BK 45, BK 45U and BK 46 for correct operation using the GESTRA ultrasonic measuring unit VAPOPHONE® or TRAPTEST®. We recommend that you perform the measurement at the lower part of the cover 3. Should you detect any loss of live steam clean the steam trap or discard and replace the Thermovit regulator (see table List of Spare Parts).
