Watts 0037112 Float Thermostatic Steam Trap 30 Psi

Product Description

The WATTS 0037112 is a float and thermostatic (F and T) steam trap designed for condensate removal in steam heating and process piping systems. It features a cast iron body with four ports and accepts 1-1/2 inch pipe connections. Rated to a maximum working pressure of 30 psi and a maximum temperature of 406 degrees F (673 degrees F absolute scale equivalent noted in specification data), this trap continuously discharges condensate while holding live steam, making it a reliable choice for low- to medium-pressure steam distribution lines. Licensed plumbers and pipefitters are the typical installers on commercial and industrial steam systems.

Float and thermostatic steam traps are used across a wide range of steam heating and process applications including unit heaters, heat exchangers, coils, and drip legs on steam mains. The four-port configuration on the WATTS 0037112 provides flexibility for in-line installation in either horizontal or vertical orientations, depending on the specific piping layout. The cast iron body handles the thermal cycling and condensate loads common in commercial building steam systems and light industrial process lines.

Key Features

• Float and thermostatic trap design continuously discharges condensate and vents air without losing live steam
• Cast iron body construction handles thermal cycling in commercial and industrial steam service
• 1-1/2 inch pipe connection size suits medium-capacity steam lines and equipment drains
• Four-port configuration allows flexible piping arrangements
• Rated to 30 psi maximum working pressure for low- to medium-pressure steam systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct installation float and thermostatic steam trap for 1-1/2 inch pipe steam systems operating at or below 30 psi maximum working pressure.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed pipefitter or plumber familiar with steam system piping and applicable mechanical codes such as the IFGC and ASME steam piping standards. Isolate and depressurize the steam line completely and allow all components to cool before removing the existing trap or installing this unit. Verify flow direction and orientation requirements before final connection. Do not exceed the rated working pressure of 30 psi.
