The SK-55 float steam trap is designed to drain condensate using a float mechanism. During system startup, the built-in thermostatic air vent removes accumulated air and non-condensable gases. As the system warms up, steam enters the trap, the capsule expands and closes the valve. As condensate fills the trap body, the float rises, opening the valve and releasing condensate. As soon as all the condensate is drained, the trap is filled with steam. At this time, the float drops, closing the valve.

Installation:

The SK-55 can be used vertically with the inlet at the top and the outlet at the bottom. It can also be installed horizontally from right to left or vice versa. Unless otherwise specified in the order sheet, the default option is right to left.
