Watson Mcdaniel IB1041-13-N-125 Inverted Bucket Steam Trap With Strainer, 3/4 in, NPT, Horizontal, 125 psig Operating

Drip, tracing, process - IB Series inverted bucket steam traps are used in drip applications to remove condensate from steam mains and steam supply lines. For drip applications, the smaller sized units have adequate capacity. The discharge orifice of the inverted bucket trap is mounted at the top of the trap body, which makes them less susceptible to failure from dirt and debris when compared to other trap types. Since inverted bucket traps have poor air handling capability, they are normally not recommended for most process applications. However, they can be used on certain process applications such as unit heaters and laundry equipment, where discharging air during system start up is not a critical factor. F and T-traps are the preferred choice for systems where air must be quickly discharged.
