W.E. Anderson TDST Series steam traps control steam and condensate movement to maximize removal of latent heat from steam for efficient system operation. The thermodynamic trap has cyclic on-off operation with a disk that is pushed open by incoming condensate and closes tightly when steam tries to escape. The compact design allows the steam trap to be mounted in any position and models a... (read more)

Energy efficient because it's so reliable The inverted bucket is the most reliable steam trap operating principle known. The heart of its simple design is a unique leverage system that multiplies the force provided by the bucket to open the valve against pressure. (read more)

Universal Connectors are used in steam systems to simplify the replacement and maintenance of Steam Traps. Watson McDaniel recommends using the Universal Connector System in any application*, but especially those which require frequent maintenance or replacement of steam traps. (read more)

Armstrong International is introducing its new line of carbon steel float & thermostatic (F & T) steam traps. The CS Series Traps are ideally suited for new and replacement applications in the hydrocarbon and chemical processing industries. The new traps are intended for high pressure modulating steam applications and for applications where F & T traps are better suited... (read more)
