TLV Steam Traps with Bypass Valve

  • Shorten start-up and batch cycles; systemize bypass blowdown
  • Free Float® steam traps with a built-in bypass valve
  • Space-saving Design
    • The integral bypass valve eliminates the need for a separate bypass line, thereby saving space at the trap installation.
  • Reduced Pipeline Costs
    • Installation costs are reduced, as neither a bypass valve nor bypass piping are required.
  • Energy Conservation
    • Utilizes the TLV Free Float®. The combination of the valve opening being under a continuous water-seal and the 3-point float seating prevents steam leakage.
  • Long Service Life
    • The spherical Free Float® rotates, allowing any point on its surface to act as the valve seal and thus ensuring long service life.
  • Inline Trap Maintenance
    • Maintenance is possible without removing the trap from the piping. For disassembly and cleaning, simply remove the four bolts securing the cover of the trap.
