Checking the Piping
Use only under conditions in which no water hammer will occur. The
impact of water hammer may damage the product, leading to fluid
discharge, which may cause burns or other injury.
CAUTION
Check to make sure that the pipes to be connected to the product have been
installed properly.
1. Is the pipe diameter suitable?
2. Is the piping where the product is to be installed horizontal?
3. Has sufficient space been secured for maintenance?
4. Have maintenance valves been installed at the inlet and outlet? If the outlet is
subject to back pressure, has a check valve (TLV-CK) been installed?
5. Is the inlet pipe as short as possible, with as few bends as possible, and installed
so the liquid will flow naturally down into the trap?
6. Has the piping work been done correctly, as shown in the figures below?
Requirement
Correct
Incorrect
Install catchpot with the
proper diameter.
Diameter is too small.
Make sure the flow of
condensate is not
obstructed.
Diameter is too small and inlet
protrudes into pipe interior.
To prevent rust and
scale from flowing into
the trap, the inlet pipe
should be connected
25 to 50 mm (1 to 2 in)
above the base of the
T-pipe.
Rust and scale flow into the
trap with the condensate.
When installing on the
blind end, make sure the
flow of condensate is not
obstructed.
Condensate collects in the pipe.

Operation
Principles of air and condensate discharge:
1. Start-up Air and Cold Condensate Discharge
At start-up, before steam is supplied the system
is cold and the bimetal plate is flexed downward,
keeping the air vent valve (A) open. This allows
for the rapid discharge of air through the vent (A)
and cold condensate through the orifice (B) when
steam is first supplied to the system.
2. Condensate Discharge
After the discharge of initial air and cold
condensate, the heat of the inflowing steam and
condensate cause the bimetal plate to flex
upward, closing the air vent valve (A). The rising
condensate level causes the float to rise due to
buoyancy, opening the orifice (B) and allowing
condensate to be discharged. The flexed bimetal
plate keeps the vent closed and will not open
again during normal operation.
3. Discharge of Large Quantities of Condensate
Increases in the condensate inflow rate cause
the condensate level in the trap to rise. The float
consequently rises and enlarges the opening of
the orifice (B), allowing more condensate to be
discharged. In this manner, continuous
condensate discharge occurs while the opening
size of the orifice varies depending on the
condensate flow rate.
4. Closed Position
When the condensate flow rate decreases, the
float falls, closing off the orifice (B) opening. A
water seal is maintained at all times over the
orifice (B) to prevent steam loss. On equipment
where steam-locking or air-binding tends to
occur, system integrity can be maintained by
operating the properly adjusted lock release
valve.

CAUTION
Operational Check
A visual inspection of the following items should be done on a daily basis to
determine whether the product is operating properly or has failed. Periodically (at
least biannually) the operation should also be checked by using diagnostic
equipment, such as a stethoscope, thermometer, TLV Pocket TrapMan or TLV
TrapMan.
If the product should fail, it may cause damage to piping and equipment, resulting in
faulty or low quality products or losses due to steam leakage.
Normal
:
Condensate is discharged continuously, together with flash
steam, and the sound of flow can be heard. If there is very little
condensate, there is almost no sound of flow.
Blocked
(Discharge Impossible)
:
No condensate is discharged. The product is quiet and makes
no noise, and the surface temperature of the product is low.
Blowing
:
Live steam continually flows from the outlet and there is a
continuous metallic sound.
Steam Leakage
:
Live steam is discharged through the product outlet together
with condensate, accompanied by a high-pitched sound.
(When conducting a visual inspection, flash steam is sometimes mistaken for steam
leakage. For this reason, the use of a steam trap diagnostic instrument [TLV: TrapMan] in
conjunction with the visual inspection is highly recommended.)

Lock Release Valve
Use gloves when operating the lock release valve and keep all body parts
well clear of the product. Failure to do so could result in burns, other injury
or damage from the blowing of small amounts of steam and condensate.
CAUTION
Use on equipment where steam-locking or air-binding, which slows the discharge of
condensate and reduce equipment efficiency, tends to occur (cylindrical dryers, air fin
heater, etc.).
Operation
1. Remove the cap nut.
2. Loosen the lock nut slightly and screw the valve push rod in 1.5 turns clockwise.
This causes the tip of the valve push rod to come into contact with the air vent
valve plug. Further turning the valve push rod causes the air vent valve to open.
3. Adjust the degree of opening as necessary
(clockwise: increase opening; counterclockwise: decrease opening).
4. After adjustment, be sure to retighten the lock nut.
5. Reattach the cap nut.
NOTE:
1. While use of the lock release valve
eliminates the problem of steam-locking and
improves heat transfer efficiency, a small
amount of steam is lost.
2. When the product is shipped from the
factory, the lock release valve is in the
position indicated in figure right, and does
not operate. To operate, adjust according to
the procedure outlined in the “Operation”
section above.
