Can float traps be installed higher than the drain?

OK. However, there should be a section of water collection pipe that is lower than the drain and a check valve should be installed.

Prevent condensate from backing up.

Traps should be installed at the lowest point of the equipment outlet and where condensate can flow smoothly. The outlet of the trap allows for the installation of pipes that are higher than the drain. However, the back pressure should not exceed 80%.

Here are some of the well-known brands recognized in the valve industry, which are widely recognized and have a high reputation. While rankings may vary depending on time and market conditions, the following brands are generally considered to be among the top brands in the valve industry:

The following influential first-line brands of water system valves and industrial valves can be used as a reference, but for reference only: Suzhou Neway Valve, Shanghai Guanlong Valve, Shanghai Qizhong Valve, Sanhua, Su Yan, Shentong, Su Valve, Nanfang, Jiang.

First, the word Yao. The above manufacturers are only estimates and references, and the specific situation may vary or fluctuate at any time due to changes in a series of factors such as changes in the market, the size of the competition pattern, and the stability of product quality. As an indispensable key device in industrial production and civil facilities, the quality and reputation of the valve brand directly affect the satisfaction and trust of users.

These brands are known in the valve industry for their innovative technology, high-quality products and reliability. It is important to note that the market and industry are evolving rapidly, and different rankings may vary depending on time and region. For the most up-to-date ranking information, it is recommended to refer to industry reports, professional organizations or market research data for more detailed and accurate information.

Depending on how traps work, traps can be divided into the following types:

1. Mechanical type: It depends on the change of the condensate level height in the steam trap, including:

Float type: The float is a closed hollow sphere.

Open upward float type: The float is a barrel type with an open upward opening.

Open downward float type: The float is a barrel type with an open downward opening.

2. Thermostatic type: It depends on the change of liquid temperature and acts, including:

Bimetal: Sensitive components are bimetallic.

Vapor pressure type: the sensitive element is a bellows or ink cartridge, and the internal is filled with volatile liquids.

Disc type: due to the different flow rates of liquid and gas under the same pressure, different dynamic and static pressures are generated, which drives the disc valve plate to act.

Pulse type: Because the condensate of different temperatures passes through the two poles in series with the orifice plate, the different pressures between the two pole orifice plates drive the valve disc to act.

In general, the displacement of a trap is not directly related to the caliber. The selection of steam traps cannot be decided according to the caliber.

For example, Armstrong's inverted bucket trap has different drainage capacity for different models, the smallest is about 200kg h, the largest is about 10000kg h, and the diameter can be done according to the user's requirements (only the connection flange is replaced); TLV's Free Float® Traps, J3, J5, J7, different types have different drainage and erection amounts, the smallest is about 200kg h, the largest is about 10000kg h;

However, there are also manufacturers that produce traps arranged according to the caliber, such as Spirax Sarco's FT43 lever float trap, DN25 below the single seat, the displacement is less than 2000kg h, DN is double seat, the displacement can reach 20 30t h; Above DN65 is double seat, double valve body, and the displacement can reach 60-70t h......

And can provoke and hold back the feet.

The structure of the free float® trap is simple, there is only one moving part inside the finely ground eggplant plum year does not disturb the rusty steel hollow float, it is both a float and an opening and closing part, no vulnerable parts, and has a long service life.

Float traps, collectively known as traps. Traps are valves used in steam pipe networks and equipment to automatically discharge condensate, air and other non-condensable gases, and to prevent water and steam leakage. This type of valve should generally be installed horizontally in the pipeline.
