Description

Float and thermostatic steam traps are commonly used on process applications where they function to drain condensate from a heat exchanger.  These types of traps respond quickly to changing loads, and they have a quiet, modulating action.  Rising water level inside the trap causes the float to rise.  This pulls the valve plug away from the seat, opening the valve.  After the condensate has been drained away, the float falls and valve plug is guided into the seat to close the valve.  An integral thermostat functions to vent air and other non-condensable gases from the system. Watson McDaniel offers F & T traps in a wide variety of materials and sizes to fit any application. Series FTE Series FT Series FT600 Series FT600 3" & 4"

Series FTE
The Series FTE Steam Traps are industrial grade ultra high capacity float & thermostatic steam traps designed for process applications with very high condensate loads or low differential pressures.  These traps uniquely feature ductile iron bodies, all stainless steel internals, and both parallel or in-line piping connections.  Certainly the most advanced high capacity F&T traps available today.
Series FTE	Capacities: to 74000 lbs/hr [33600 kg/hr] Maximum operating pressure: 200 psig [13.8 bar] Sizes: 1-1/2", 2", and 2-1/2" Connections: NPT Internal materials: Stainless steel Body material: Ductile iron Weight: 23 to 92 lbs [10 to 42 kg]

Series FT
The Series FT Float & Thermostatic Steam Traps are designed for a variety of applications where it is necessary for continuous removal of condensate during the process and air on start up.  The most universal of all styles of steam traps, Watson McDaniel's' Series FT feature economical pricing, parallel inlet & outlet pipe connections, and in-line repairability.
Series FT	Capacities: to 9400 lbs/hr [4260 kg/hr] Maximum operating pressure: 125 psig [8.6 bar] Sizes: 3/4", 1", 1-1/4", 1-1/2", and 2" Connections: NPT Valve, seat, float materials: Stainless steel Body material: Cast iron Weight: 7-1/2 to 40 lbs [3 to 18 kg]

Series FT600
The Series FT600 Steam Traps are Industrial Grade Float & Thermostatic Steam Traps.  With bodies constructed of cast steel and all stainless steel internals this trap is designed to class 400 with shell design for 600 psig piping systems.  These traps are ideal for process applications in the HPI/CPI industries.
