PT62HP Float & Thermostatic Steam Trap (DN15–25)

Overview

The PT62HP (DN15–25) is a high-pressure H-pattern float and thermostatic steam trap with an internal thermostatic air vent, in cast steel construction with stainless steel internals. Designed for draining condensate from low and medium pressure steam heating and process equipment, it gives a modulating discharge at steam temperature with excellent air venting. It is available with steam lock release (SLR) options and in Non-IBR or IBR approved form. Rated to 400°C with a 32 kg/cm²(g) maximum operating pressure, the cast steel body takes it well beyond the cast iron PT61 for high-pressure steam mains. Supplied, sized and serviced for steam systems across Nepal.

Features & Benefits

• ✓Cast steel body to ASTM A216 Gr. WCB is the reason this trap is rated far higher than the cast iron PT61, taking it to 32 kg/cm² operating pressure and 400°C, which is the correct choice for high-pressure steam mains where a cast iron trap would not be permitted.
• ✓The float-and-thermostatic mechanism discharges condensate continuously at steam temperature, keeping the full heating surface of process equipment active, unlike traps that back up condensate to sub-cool it.
• ✓The internal thermostatic air vent clears air automatically on start-up, avoiding the air-binding that slows down inverted bucket traps at commissioning.
• ✓IBR-approved option is available, which is a legal requirement for boiler-connected steam piping, so the same product can serve regulated and non-regulated installations by specifying NIBR or IBR at order time.
• ✓Three differential-pressure variants (21/25/32) let the orifice be matched to the actual working differential, since a float trap's capacity falls as its pressure rating rises and an oversized orifice can fail to seal.
• ✓Graphite gasket with SS reinforcement withstands the higher temperature and thermal cycling of this pressure class better than a soft or non-asbestos gasket, reducing the risk of cover-joint leakage over the trap's life.
• ✓Welded-on ASTM A105 forged carbon steel flanges give a proper high-pressure flange joint integral to the body, rather than a threaded flange adapter that would be a weak point at this rating.
