Steam Trapper With Inverted Piston ADCA Ib35S / Ib35Ss
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The IB30 series of steam traps are of inverted piston design and are recommended for use in systems where continuous efficient and trouble-free operation is required. They do not stop performing their functions, even with the passage fully open or closed, which makes them suitable for use at medium and high steam pressures. The connection is threaded or flanged.
WORKING FLUID / MEDIUM
• saturated steam
EXECUTION
• threaded ISO7/1 Rp (BS21)
• flanged EN 1092-1 PN40 or ANSI
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
• In a horizontal position.
MAIN ADVANTAGES
• Controlled discharge.
• Drains condensate at a temperature close to that of steam.
• Not affected by hydraulic shocks and vibrations in the system.
• Easy to maintain.
Dimensions: DN 15 – 25
The ADCA IB35S and IB35SS steam Trappers with inverted piston technology represent the pinnacle of efficiency and reliability in steam system steam management. Engineered for industrial applications, these robust devices ensure optimal steam trap performance by utilizing a unique inverted piston mechanism that provides continuous drainage of steam while preventing live steam loss. Their durable construction and precision engineering make them ideal for high-pressure steam systems where energy conservation and operational efficiency are critical.
Key features of the ADCA IB35S/IB35SS series include:
Inverted piston design for reliable operation and minimal maintenance
Stainless steel construction (IB35SS) for corrosive environments
High temperature and pressure tolerance for demanding industrial applications
Energy-efficient operation that reduces steam consumption and lowers operational costs
Easy installation and compatibility with various steam system configurations
These steam trappers are specifically designed to handle the rigorous demands of industrial steam systems, including process heating, sterilization, and power generation applications. The inverted piston mechanism ensures consistent performance even under fluctuating load conditions, providing uninterrupted steam removal while maintaining system pressure integrity. With their proven durability and exceptional energy-saving capabilities, the ADCA IB35S and IB35SS models deliver long-term value and reliability for industrial facilities worldwide.
