TLV Mechanical Free Float Steam Trap

The operation principle of mechanical traps takes advantage of the difference between the specific gravities of condensate and steam.
Free Float® steam traps, a TLV invention, are our flagship series of mechanical steam traps. Free Float® steam traps offer the following features:
• The spherical float provides an infinite number of contact surfaces with the valve seat, ensuring long service life.
• Air venting feature for improved equipment productivity.
• Compact design with no levers or hinges.
• Large tolerance for backpressure allows for problem-free operation even where condensate is recovered.
