*1 Depending on the operation condition, the indicated equipment may be subject to "stall" (see *3 below). In such cases, GT Series PowerTraps are required. GT Series PowerTraps are steam traps that feature a pump function. GT Series PowerTraps

*2 Operating pressures vary between different models of the same series. For details please refer to individual Specification Data Sheets (SDS).

*3 "Stall" is a phenomenon where the internal pressure of an equipment falls below the back pressurae on the outlet side, resulting in back-up of condensate that cannot be discharged by conventional steam traps. "Stall" can cause damage such as uneven/incomplete product heating, corrosion and waterhammer.

Product Features
  • No condensate back-up owing to continuous discharge
  • Self-modulating discharge as condensate load and pressure changes
  • Initial air venting feature
  • Quiet operation
