DRIP, TRACING, PROCESS: The UT450 Thermostatic Steam
Trap Module can be used anywhere conventional thermostatic
steam traps are used. Used for drip, tracing and light process
applications. Trap module mounts to any 2-bolt Quick-Change
Universal Connector.
• Trap module can be easily removed and replaced in minutes without having to disconnect any piping
• Trap modules can be used with most manufacturers’ 2-bolt universal connector
• All stainless steel construction with hardened seat
The UC450 universal connector is permanently installed into
the pipeline where the steam trap would normally be placed.
The trap module, which functions like any thermodynamic
steam trap, is fastened to the universal connector with two bolts.
When a new trap module is needed, it can be easily removed
and replaced with a standard open-end or socket wrench
without disturbing the existing piping.
Selection / Sizing / Capacities Connector selection to use with the UT450: UC450 (no strainer), UC450SR (strainer), UC450SBR (strainer and blowdown). Select this model for steam systems with maximum working pressure of 450 PSIG.
Note: 5/64” low capacity orifice is available upon request. Universal Connectors are available with an integral strainer
and blowdown valve. Connector is purchased separately.
See the UC450 Universal Connectors section for more information.
Installation and Maintenance Mounts to any two-bolt quick change universal connector.
Trap module is attached to the connector using two bolts and
two sealing gaskets. When a new trap module is needed, it can
be easily removed and replaced with a standard open-end or
socket wrench without unthreading the existing piping. In vertical
piping installations with upward flow, use of a blowdown valve
is not recommended. Discharge would be in upward and unsafe
direction.
The steam trap module shall be designed to attach to the
industry standard two-bolt universal connector. Trap module
shall be of a thermostatic design. The universal connector
shall conform to the two-bolt industry standard with integral
strainer and blowdown options.
