Body Material Stainless Steel 420F
Options Blowdown Valve, Insulation Cap
PMO Max. Operating Pressure 600 PSIG
TMO Max. Operating Temperature 750ºF
PMA Max. Allowable Pressure 915 PSIG up to 250ºF
TMA Max. Allowable Temperature 610ºF @ 750 PSIG
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
DRIP, TRACER: The WD600S thermodynamic steam trap
is commonly used as a drip trap on steam mains and steam
supply lines. Supplied with integral strainer and optional
blowdown valve to protect the trap from contamination. These
traps can be used on tracing applications; however, thermostatic
traps are normally recommended for this service. Ideal for
outdoor applications that are subject to freezing and for
superheated steam conditions.
HOW IT WORKS
The thermodynamic trap has cyclic on-off operation with a disc
that is pushed open by incoming condensate and closes tightly
when steam tries to escape.
FEATURES
•Integral strainer with optional blowdown valve to protect
trap from contamination
•High pressure applications up to 600 PSIG
•Hardened stainless steel seat and disc for extended service
life even at high pressure
•Single trap will operate over the entire pressure range of
3.5-600 PSIG (Not recommended for use below 10 PSI)
•Suitable for superheated steam
•Freezeproof when trap is piped in a vertical orientation
for complete drainage of condensate
•Three-hole balanced discharge extends life of the seat area
•Trap will function in any orientation (horizontal preferred)

SAMPLE SPECIFICATION
The steam trap shall be all stainless steel thermodynamic
type with hardened integral seat and disc with integral strainer
and blowdown valve.
INSTALLATION
Trap can be installed in any position; however, horizontal is
preferred. Installation should include isolation valves. Do not
weld or damage can occur to the seat area.
MAINTENANCE
If trap fails, close isolation valves and remove cap. Clean disc
and seating surfaces and replace cap and disc with groove side
toward seat. NOTE: Do not over tighten cap. For full maintenance
details see Installation and Maintenance Manual.
OPTIONS
An insulation cap is available to reduce cycle rates and steam
loss in rain, snow, or cold environments. Blowdown valve, used
for flushing dirt and scale from strainer.
