Inverted Bucket Steam Trap

An inverted bucket steam trap is a highly efficient, mechanical steam-condensate discharge valve that operates using the buoyancy difference between steam and water to automatically vent condensate, air, and non-condensable gases while preventing the escape of live steam. Inside the trap, a lightweight inverted metal bucket floats up to close the discharge valve when steam enters, and sinks down to open the valve and discharge condensate as steam condenses, providing exceptional resistance to water hammer, thermal shock, and backpressure. These rugged, long-lasting steam specialties are primary specifications in industrial steam heating loops, oil refinery heat tracing, and laundry processing plants, allowing steam utility engineers to maximize thermal efficiency by importing certified inverted bucket steam traps directly from leading manufacturers in China via our advanced B2B commercial platform.
