High Pressure Inverted Bucket Type Steam Trap

Work Principle:
Inverted bucket steam trap works with the principle of density contrast between condensation water and steam. The internal structure is connected to bucket with lever system, working on steam pressure switches. The bucket is a level sensor in the steam trap with opening downward. When the device starts up, air and low temperature condensation water enter into the pipe. At this time, the steam trap is completely open, which allows quick discharge of air and low temperature condensation water, and the temperature arises soon. When the steam enters into the bucket, it will float up. Since the bucket connects with the lever, the lever will drive the valve core to close the valve. The small vent in bucket can drain water automatically. When some of steam is drained out from the vent and others become condensate, then the bucket will sink lack of float. The lever which is connected to bucket will drive the valve core to open the valve. Then the steam will enter into the bucket and the valve will close. It will all circle in this way and drain water succesively.
