WLD1500 Series Inverted Bucket Liquid Drain Trap
 |
HOW IT WORKS
When there is condensate in the system, the inverted bucket inside the liquid drain trap sits on the bottom of the unit due to its weight. This allows condensate to enter the trap and to be discharged through the seat orifice located at the top. When the air enters the trap, the bucket floats to the surface and closes off the discharge valve containing the air in the system. Eventually air is bled off through a small hole in the top of the bucket and the bucket sinks repeating the cycle.
FEATURES
- In-line repairable
