The BVALVE BV500 is a float and thermostatic steam trap with an inline, straight-through body that avoids the staggered piping usually associated with this trap type. A stainless steel float and a simple lever mechanism open or close the valve in proportion to the condensate rate, unaffected by instantaneous pressure changes.

It is used where fast response and continuous condensate discharge are required.

Key features

  • Inline straight-through body
  • Continuous, modulating condensate discharge proportional to the condensate load
  • Integrated thermostatic air vent with stainless steel capsule
  • Stainless steel float, lever, main valve and seats
  • DN15 to DN25 can be installed in horizontal or vertical pipes by turning the cover 90°
  • Three differential pressure versions: 4.5, 10 and 14 bar
