Compact, convenient and easy to install steam trapping solutions


The Spirax pipeline connector, coupled with world leading steam trap technology, reduces plant downtime, maintenance costs with zero emissions, conforming to Pertinent Environment & Pollution Norms. When a steam trap requires maintenance, the time taken to replace or repair depends on how easily it can be removed from the pipeline. Often it has to wait until the whole system is shut down. The pipeline connector's unique design allows steam traps to be quickly removed and replaced within a matter of minutes by simply undoing two bolts offering ease of installation, operation and maintenance. Integral piston valves are used for upstream, downstream, trap vent, trap test and bypass operations making the system leak proof with positive shutoff. Trap vent piston valve offers a great advantage in safety, as it vents out steam trapped between the trap and upstream isolation valve, when the trap is required to be removed or replaced protecting the operator from direct contact with it. Traditional steam trapping assemblies require many joints between the traps and isolation valves which are potential leak paths. A single permanent in-line connector significantly reduces installation time, cuts costs dramatically, and eliminates system leaks making it an energy efficient product. Many traditional isolation valves are difficult to maintain and prone to gland leakage and inline leakage. Piston valves which are integral with Spirax pipeline connectors provide simple and quick inline maintenance, positive shut-off and zero emissions ensuring their Reliable Life Cycles.

Components ? Thermodynamic (UTD3) / Balanced pressure thermostatic (UBP21CV) steam trap with universal connector. The mating surface of body and TD trap is friction welded in order to avoid galvanic corrosion. Pipeline connector has a single stem for upstream and downstream isolation, operated by manual hand wheel. Strainer at inlet to get the inflow free from foreign particles dirt / and protecting valve internals and not for initial start up (flushing) purpose. Drain valve DV1 glandless piston valve for bypass when opened, discharges condensate from the line. The trap can be maintained by isolating inlet valve and opening the bypass valve (DV1) so as to keep the process live. Besides, it is also sufficient to take care of startup load conditions. Drain valve DV2 glandless piston valve for trap vent (depressurization valve), used to depressurize the line before steam trap by discharging steam when it is isolated for maintenance. Drain valve DV3 optional. This glandless piston valve for trap test is used for checking the working condition of the steam trap, when condensate is to be returned for recovery in a closed loop system.

Install PCO1N for arresting leaks


A study on Energy Conservation, conducted by Forbes Marshall, reveals that steam leak through 15mm steam traps or 15mm isolation valves leads to the loss of 48 tonnes of steam annually (considering steam leak through a 3mm orifice size for a period of 16 hrs/day and 300 days in a year). Which means loss of, Rs. 52000/yr - for plant running on an Oil Fired Boiler Rs. 43000/yr - for plant running on a Gas Fired Boiler Rs. 28000/yr - for plant running on a Coal Fires Boiler The leakage through weld joints wastes an equal amount of energy too. The Spirax Compact Steam Trapping Station is designed to arrest all these leaks.

One of our many satisfied customers say.... As an effort to reduce steam leakages in the refinery, a new device called Spirax Compact Trapping, formed by connecting PC 01 with UTD3 is installed in our plant. Apart from steam loss reduction, the compact trapping station facilitates easy online maintenance of steam traps.
