Ball Float and Thermostatic Steam Traps are mechanical Traps and operate on difference in desity between steam and codensate. Condensate entering the Trap causes the Ball Float to rise and lifts the valve thru leverage off the seat discharging condensate continuously at steam temperature. Air, CO2 and other non-condensable gases are released thru separate balanced pressure type Thermostatic Air Vent provided in the Trap.
