DRIP, TRACING: Designed for drip applications for the
draining of condensate from steam mains and other steam
supply lines as well as for tracing applications. The UTD450
& UTD600 Steam Trap Modules can be used anywhere
conventional thermodynamic steam traps are used. This
trap module can be used on either vertical or horizontal piping
installations and can mount 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 UTD450SM and UTD600LSM: UC450 (no strainer), UC450SR (strainer), UC450SBR (strainer and blowdown).
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 Universal connector is first permanently installed (threaded,
welded, flanged) into piping system. Trap module should be
installed in orientation shown with cap facing upwards. The trap
module is fastened to the universal connector using two bolts.
If the trap fails for any reason, replace only the trap module. 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 thermodynamic design. Universal connector shall
conform to the two bolt industry standard with integral strainer
and blowdown options.
