Rex Steam Products Pvt. Ltd.

Odhav, Ahmedabad, Gujarat

Proper condensate removal is essential for efficient process plant operation. REX offers a full range of established trap operating principles thermodynamic, ball float, and inverted bucket. Correctly chosen and fitted, REX traps can boost productivity, reduce spoilage, save man-hours, minimize steam consumption and cut fuel bills.

Cold condensate or air raise the disc under pressure and flow freely through the trap. When flash steam reaches the trap, the velocity under the disc is instantly increased and pulls the disc onto the seat. Flash pressure on top of the disc snaps it onto its seat to give a tight shut-off. Heat loss from above the disc, causes the chamber pressure to decrease and the valve disc opens again to discharge condensate.

• Compact, lightweight
• All stainless steel construction for good corrosion resistance.
• High resistance to water-hammer.
• Long life due to hardened seat and disc.
• Only one moving part.
• Efficient operation under varying loads and pressures.
• Discharges condensate at steam temperature.

On start up, main valve is normally closed. When condensate reaches a certain level in the trap, the float begins to rise. This opens the main valve and condensate is drained until the float is lowered and the valve rests tightly on the seat. The float is positioned above the main valve & seat so the condensate forms a water seal and eliminates loss of any live steam. Since there are no pressure fluctuations due to intermittent operation, condensate is discharged at a constant temperature.

• Discharges condensate continuously as rapidly as it forms.
• High thermal efficiency at both light and heavy loads. Continuous modulating discharge does not create pressure disturbances, which may affect control in air heating coils, shell-and-tube exchangers, etc.
• Stainless steel internal working parts increase service life.
• In-line horizontal piping connections simplify installation and maintenance.
• All internal parts can easily be renewed without disturbing the pipe connections.
• Float traps can never lose prime and blow steam. When condensate is not present, the main valve closes tight.
• Steam loss is eliminated because during operation, the main valve is always sealed by condensate.
• The steam lock release (SLR) prevents steam locking when condensate must be lifted to the trap.

As condensate flows into the trap body, air and steam are trapped in the inverted bucket. This gives the bucket buoyancy and it rises with the condensate and quickly closes the valve. When entrapped steam condenses, bucket loses buoyancy, sinks and opens the discharge valve air. Which has accumulated in the top of the trap is immediately expelled by the pressure of the water which follows it to the trap outlet. When air or steam, again enter the inverted bucket, this cycle is repeated.

• Long, energy-efficient service life.
• Resistance to wear.
• Exceptional ability to handle dirt and scale.
• Operation against back pressure of nearly 100%
• Excellent purging action.
• Continuous air venting at steam temperature.
