These TLV Thermostatic Steam Traps operate via the temperature difference between steam and condensate.

X Element
All L, LV, and FL series models employ a thermoliquid-filled X-element, which acts as the valve.

Improved Productivity
The X-element discharges hot air as well as low-temperature air and cold condensate. This encourages the inflow of steam, thereby reducing start-up times.

Protects Equipment
The valve remains open even in the event of a failure due to the ‘fail open’ construction of the X-element, which means that the equipment can continue operating (though steam loss will occur).

Long Service Life
Any rust or scale entering the trap from the piping is discharged together with the condensate through the large valve opening, greatly reducing the chance of a build-up of rust or scale that could obstruct the valve opening.

Application Areas
Suitable for use in a variety of applications.
