MacDani IB inverted bucket trap

Mark Daniel Inverted Bucket Steam Traps Mark Daniel Inverted Bucket Steam Traps are available in a variety of sizes and capacities. When the user superheats steam, a check valve should be installed in front of the trap. Small-sized traps are mainly used for main lines and heat tracing pipelines. Typical application equipment includes heaters, laundry equipment and other process equipment. Due to their low air discharge capacity, they are more suitable for situations that allow slow start-up. Large models of steam traps are mainly used in process equipment. However, due to the limitations of the air discharge capacity of the inverted bucket trap. Float thermostatic steam traps are more competitive.
The working principle of the MacDenny inverted bucket trap:
When condensate is generated in the system and enters the trap, the built-in inverted bucket is at the lower part of the trap due to its own weight. At this time, the valve located at the top of the trap The seat opening is open to allow condensate to enter the valve body and exit the valve body through the hole in the top. When steam enters the trap, the inverted bucket floats upward and closes the outlet valve to prevent steam from escaping. The cycle repeats when all the steam escapes through the small hole in the top of the bucket and the bucket sinks into the water.
