Steam trap addition
January 1st 2007 Flowserve Gestra has introduced the UNA38 steam trap for use with high flow rates of high-pressure condensate in steam systems. The UNA38 features a robust ballfloat and needle-closing mechanism with a large condensate discharge capacity which maximises the retention of process steam whilst optimising the discharge of condensate and incondensable gases to help preserve wear on downstream equipment like valves. Designed to operate at pressures of up to PN100 (Class 600) and temperatures up to 500°C or 530°C for the high temperature version, the UNA38 is robust, low maintenance and easily adapted to function in horizontal or vertical installations, with a choice of butt-weld, socketweld and flanged connections. UNA traps are recognised for their ability to perform independently of back pressure, making them suitable for universal applications where energy efficiency, heat conservation, matched and reliability under arduous conditions is essential More articles from Flowserve Flow Control UK Ltd: |
