A steam trap is an essential component in steam pipelines, serving several key purposes:
- Condensate Removal: Steam traps automatically discharge condensate (water formed when steam loses its heat) from the steam system. This prevents water hammer and maintains the efficiency of the steam system.
- Air and Non-Condensable Gas Removal: They also remove air and other non-condensable gases like carbon dioxide, which can reduce the efficiency of heat transfer.
- Steam Retention: Steam traps allow steam to remain in the system until it has fully transferred its heat energy, ensuring maximum efficiency and minimizing energy loss.
- Preventing Steam Loss: By trapping steam and only releasing condensate, steam traps help in conserving energy and reducing operational costs.
