What is a heavy-duty steam trap?

In some processes, the condensate quantities are extremely high, several tens of tonnes per hour, so that even the capacity of a heavy-duty steam trap is insufficient. In such cases, a thermally assisted plug-operated condensate trap is used.

Choosing a heavy-duty steam trap

We assist in the sizing and selection of the appropriate heavy-duty steam trap for the application.

GESTRA has developed a compact TK heavy-duty steam trap, with a condensate removal capacity of even over 100 000 kg/h. Structurally, the TK is a thermally assisted condensate trap. In the first phase of condensate removal, it is controlled by multi-diaphragm regulators familiar from thermal MK condensate traps, but the actual condensate removal is carried out by the main valve built into the trap, which consists of a separate plug and plug ring.

As its name suggests, the GESTRA TK is suitable for applications where condensate quantities are high. Due to its operating principle, the condensate line should be designed to run downward.

Depending on the application, the UNA MAX range can be used instead of the TK. As its name indicates, the MAX series also offers high capacity.
