The FT and FTI Float & Thermostatic steam traps are traditional cast iron products available with either parallel (FT) or in-line (FTI) connections.
These traps are offered for steam pressures up to 200 psig and condensate loads to 10,000 lb/hr. The stainless steel air vent, float, and valve eliminate air binding, resist corrosion and allow for continuous drainage of condensate.
