Performance/Advantages
continues dischargins saturation condensed water withou accumulation,and so get the maximum thermal efficiency
when steam pressure changes,the ball float can adjust the opening of valve seat whthour influence,and so it is stable
whith automatic and manual releaser,and so its exhaust performance is good without airlock and working is smooth without noise
Working Principle
by the action of buoyance,the position of ball float changes with the water level of condesation water and adjust the opening of valve seat automatically,continue to discharge condensation water.When the condensation water stops,the ball float fall onto bottom by gravity,the close opening of drain valve.The opening of drain valve is below the water lever,and so the water is separated from steam automatically,and form water seal without steam leakage
Application
by automation,speedliness and continuing features,this valve is used for the steam heating equipment,condensation water recovery system and the place where needs removing condesation water at quick speed ,and so stop steam leakage effectively and obtains optimum heating
Main basis for type selection
condesation water loading(discharge)kg/h(select the multiplying power 2-3 times)
Maximum working pressure MPa
Operation pressure differential MPa
Valve Material and nominal pressure
Connection mode and dimension
Use and Maintenance
Confirm the valve material pressure and check if the maximum is suitable for operation condition.
Before install,clean the pepeline and clear away sundries
The installation poisition shall be closed to heating equipment as much as possible.
Install the minimum point of pipe horizontally and the direction of flow should be the same to the lable of valve.
Install steam trap for each heating equipment in case cause influence each other.
under the safe operation of system,open the valve in front of the steam trap,make it rise up to normal station slowy.
Do time-based maintenance for the normal working of steam reap.
