Inverted Bucket Steam TrapImported National Standard BX991 BX995Detailed Information

The inverted bucket steam trap operates on the principle of density difference between condensate and steam. Its internal structure consists of a lever system connected to an inverted bucket, which overcomes steam pressure to open and close the valve. The inverted bucket, with its opening facing downward, serves as the liquid level sensing component. When the system starts, air and low-temperature condensate are present in the pipeline, and the trap is fully open, allowing rapid discharge of air and condensate, quickly raising the system temperature. When steam enters the inverted bucket, it creates buoyancy, lifting the bucket and closing the valve via the lever. A small hole in the bucket allows automatic air venting. As some steam escapes through the hole and the rest condenses, the bucket loses buoyancy and sinks, opening the valve again. This cycle repeats, enabling intermittent drainage.

\Inverted Bucket Steam TrapImported National Standard BX991 BX995Product Structural Features

All moving parts in the inner cavity are made of stainless steel, ensuring wear and corrosion resistance.

No steam loss occurs as steam cannot reach the water-sealed valve seat orifice, making it highly energy-efficient.

The inverted bucket design prevents crushing and damage, resists water hammer, and ensures long service life.

An air vent hole at the top of the inverted bucket ensures continuous air venting, preventing cold lag and air locking.

Unaffected by backpressure, it operates efficiently even under high backpressure conditions.

Reliable operation with only two moving parts (lever and inverted bucket), eliminating jamming risks.

The valve seat and disc are located at the top, allowing impurities to pass during opening and closing, providing self-cleaning and avoiding clogging.

Applications: Textile printing and dyeing, food and beverage, pharmaceutical and chemical, rubber tires, environmental water treatment, cleaning and disinfection, etc.
