Industrial steam systems generate condensate that can reduce heat transfer efficiency, cause flooding, and drive up maintenance costs. Keystone Steam Supplies provides a range of steam traps designed to mitigate these issues, ensuring smooth operations and long-term cost savings.
Among the available options, thermostatic steam traps feature pressure-sensitive diaphragms that open to release air and condensate before closing when pressure stabilizes. These are particularly suited for outdoor applications and systems operating below 250 psi.
For more versatile use, Keystone offers both parallel and in-line float and thermostatic traps. Parallel models use steam condensation to displace a float, triggering drainage, while in-line versions collect steam in a trap shell, allowing automatic condensate removal for improved energy efficiency. Both types come in sizes ranging from ½” to 2″.
Durable inverted bucket traps operate by allowing air to escape through the top while condensate drains from the bottom. A rising and falling bucket mechanism, driven by steam presence, ensures reliable operation with minimal upkeep. Built from sturdy iron, these traps are designed for long-term performance.
Additionally, the TK series traps utilize condensate to lift a disc, enabling drainage through multiple outlets. As the liquid turns back to steam, the disc reseals the trap. Available in ⅜”, ½”, ¾”, and 1″ sizes, these traps offer another efficient solution for steam system management.
By incorporating these specialized traps, industries can enhance energy efficiency, reduce downtime, and extend the lifespan of their steam systems. For further details, manufacturers recommend consulting technical specifications or reaching out to Keystone Steam Supplies directly.
