Die Carter Valve CVS-VALVE-010 Forged Steam Trap is engineered to deliver reliable and efficient condensate removal in industrial steam systems operating under high pressure and temperature conditions.
Built with a forged steel body and cover, this model provides superior structural strength and long-term durability compared to conventional cast designs, making it ideal for critical steam applications.
At the core of the CVS-VALVE-010 is an advanced modular cage unit, integrating:
- A responsive bimetallic element
- A hardened Rc 58 minimum ball valve
- A wear-resistant CoCr alloy seat
This compact assembly is factory-tested and allows full internal replacement in under two minutes without removing the trap from the pipeline, significantly reducing downtime and maintenance cost.
The trap is designed for universal operation, automatically adjusting to varying pressure conditions from low to high pressure without manual tuning or orifice replacement.
To ensure long-term reliability, the CVS-VALVE-010 incorporates:
- CoCr alloy hardfaced seats for erosion resistance
- Integral stainless steel strainer (0.8 mm perforation) to prevent clogging from dirt and scale
The unit also features:
- Silent operation, minimizing water hammer risk
- Freeze-resistant design, enabling complete drainage when installed vertically
- All-position installation, simplifying piping design
An optional temperature control function enables adjustment of condensate discharge temperature under operating conditions, allowing facilities to recover additional sensible heat and achieve up to 30% energy savings in optimized processes.
