what kind of steam trap?

BobbyG

fella brought this picture in and ask if we knew what the cost to replace it is....

I found out the operating press. is 50 lbs and I will get pipe size, capacity and application. But I haven't ever seen a trap like this?  I told him to take the lid off and take a picture of the insides....

Anybody have any experience with this type? Can you point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance!

ask him if there

is a name anywhere on the casting, or a riveted tag... that would help.

Looks like

it might be a Sterling F&T trap.

Not a great picture....

but it looks like a Bestobell delta element trap. Maybe a GM3.

There are many companies that make this type of trap.  Try Gestra or Spirex Sarco.  It is a thermostatic with dynamic clack type trap.  I hope that picture is from the overhead and the trap station is not mounted in the vertical.
