TLV Free Float Steam Trap

TLV Steam Traps with Free Float® for Equipment
Free-floating steam traps offer uninterrupted discharge and are optimal for processes. They can be used with pressures as low as 21 barg.

Advantages and Features

Increased Efficiency of Heating Equipment
TLV Free Float® rises and falls in parallel with fluctuations in condensate flow, thus opening the valve to discharge condensate or closing the valve when steam enters.
The integrated X-Element (indicated by the letter 'X' in model names) acts as an air vent, discharging both cold and hot air. As a result, the steam chamber inside the equipment contains only steam, allowing the equipment to achieve optimum heating performance.

Long service life, excellent durability.
The spherical free-floating valve rotates during operation, allowing each point on its surface to act as a valve seal. This also means a long service life. Stainless steel models are also available for greater durability.

It protects the equipment.
'Failure-Free' Design: The X-element is designed to keep the valve open even in the event of a malfunction.

Application Areas
It is particularly suitable for steam processes.

• Heat exchangers, reactor heaters, vulcanizer vessels, jacketed heaters, cylindrical heat exchangers, cylindrical dryers, etc.
