Key benefits

  • Thermostatic, float & thermostatic, inverted bucket and thermodynamic traps for every drip, tracer and process duty.
  • Renewable cage units and repair kits restore traps in place — no re-piping.
  • Thermostatic radiator valves, pressure regulators and temperature regulators.
  • Y-strainers, air vents and vacuum breakers to complete the drip leg.
  • Cast-iron, ductile or forged-steel bodies; stainless internals.
  • Application engineering and trap surveys through your local rep.

Heating and process steam systems in commercial buildings, campuses, hospitals, food processing and light industry.
