Several factors must be considered when selecting the appropriate steam trap, but the primary factors are as follows:
- Select different types of steam traps according to the specific application.
- Select the appropriate connection size based on actual operating conditions.
- Select a steam trap with appropriate pressure and temperature ratings based on the actual operating conditions.
- Based on the potential condensate volume generated by steam heating equipment during normal operation, multiply by a selection factor of 2 to 4, then select the trap based on its actual discharge capacity.
