Lever Drain Trap, Free Floating, Guided, Cast Iron, 200 deg F

Armstrong’s cast iron, free-floating guided lever drain traps use the same bodies, caps, lever mechanisms, valves and seats as Armstrong inverted bucket steam traps that have been proved in years of service. Elliptical floats and high leverage make it possible to open large orifices to provide adequate capacity for drain trap size and weight. As water begins to fill the body of the trap, the float rises, opening the discharge valve. Motion of the free-floating valve lever is guided to provide precise closure. The opening of the valve is just wide enough to remove liquid as fast as it comes to the trap. Thus at times, the valve is barely cracked from the seat.
