Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the TLV free float drain trap.
This product has been thoroughly inspected before being shipped from the factory.
When the product is delivered, before doing anything else, check the specifications
and external appearance to make sure nothing is out of the ordinary. Also be sure to
read this manual carefully before use and follow the instructions to be sure of using
the product properly.
This product is designed, manufactured, and inspected for use with air, inert
gases and condensate. Do not use for toxic, flammable or otherwise
hazardous fluids. Hereafter in this manual, the words "gas" and "gases"
should be read as "inert gas" and "inert gases".
This free float drain trap employs a precision-ground float and three-point seat. With no
hinges or levers, the trap automatically and continuously discharges condensate as it
forms in the air/gas system, preventing it from backing up in the system. The three-
point seat supports the precision-ground float at three points, ensuring an air-tight seal
even under extremely low condensate loads. This free float drain trap is also inline
repairable, facilitating repair and maintenance, resulting in considerable time savings.
If detailed instructions for special order specifications or options not contained in this
manual are required, please contact TLV for full details.
This instruction manual is intended for use with the model(s) listed on the front cover.
It is necessary not only for installation but for subsequent maintenance,
disassembly/reassembly and troubleshooting. Please keep it in a safe place for
future reference.
