5. INSTALLATION
Before the installation, you should read safety instructions carefully.
6. OPERATION
The main element in bimetallic steam traps is the valve and bimetallic itself.
bimetal; It is a composite material consisting of two separate plates having
different coefficients of expansion.
OPENING
When the system is cold, the valve is open and non-condensing gases and
cold condensate are discharged. When the system is activated, the metallic
plates that shrink by the cooling of the condensate from the condensate
provide the discharge of the condensate by pushing the valve from the bed.
CLOSING
When the hot condensate arrives, the long protrusions and then the short ones
are respectively bent, since the amount of bending at different temperatures is
proportional to the length of the protrusions. Therefore, they gradually pull the
valve towards its seat. As the temperature increases, the applied force increases
and stabilizes the bearing. As it is understood from the working principle, it keeps
the condensate in the steam chamber and waits for the temperature to drop
below a few degrees. This feature should be considered in practice.

a- Check the label and technical information sheet if the product is suitable
for the required installation.
b- Check the maximum pressure and temperatura values. lf the pressure in the
system is higher than the maximum value of the product, provide the use of
safety tools in arder to preven! the excess pressure.
c- Indicate the flow direction and correct installation position. (The flow
directions is on the body.
d- Take off the covers from the product.
e- Consider the temperature of the released condense as 1 00ºC if there is
discharge of condense into atmosphere. Be sure that the system is working
correctly after the installation and maintenance.

7. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
7.1 Maintenance
Before doing any operation on the trap, such as; the condensate must be
isolated from the supply line and return line and the pressure in the system
must be relieved safely.
The trap should then be allowed to cool. When reassembling the system, all
connection surfaces must be clean.
7.2 Cleaning
It can cause physical injury, product damage and environmental damage.
The fluid in the device can be a risk to the user, the environment and the device
itself.
Bimetallic Steam Trap
· If there is a closing valve, first the bottom and then the top closing valve is closed.
The fluid inside the device is discharged into a suitable storage container through
the drain plug or valve.
·The device is carefully disassembled.
·The inside of the device is cleaned with a soft brush and the outside with a wet
cloth and left to dry.
·Electrical connections should not contact to wet area.
It can cause product damage and environmental damage.
·Do not clean with sharp or hard objects.
