INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL
These instructions must be carefully read before any work involving products supplied by VALSTEAM ADCA
ENGINEERING S.A. is undertaken.
The installation procedure is a critical stage in a life of a steam trap and care should be taken to avoid damage
to the trap or equipment.
Warning!
- At start up, the presence of small particles in the water (dirt, scale, weld splatters, etc) may cause an imperfect
closure of the seat. If this occurs, proceed to an accurate cleaning.
- Do not touch the equipment without appropriate protection during working operation because it may conduct heat
if the used fluid is at high temperature.
- Before starting maintenance be sure that the equipment is not pressurized or hot.
- The equipments must be used within the working temperature and pressure limits laid down for them, otherwise
they may fail (refer to nameplate and/or IS- Information Sheet).
- Do not remove the nameplate attached to the equipment. Serial number and other useful information is stamped
on it.
INSTALLATION
- Before to install remove plastic covers placed on flanges or connection ends. The equipment has an arrow or
Inlet/Outlet designations. Be sure that it will be installed on the appropriate direction.
- Install the steam trap in the point of the system, where the condensate tends to collect. It must be installed with the
float lever in horizontal plane, so that it rises and falls vertically. An ADCA strainer should be installed upstream of
the trap.
