Xylem 404204 Series H Float & Thermostatic Steam Trap 3/4" NPT 75 PSI

The Xylem 404204 FT075H-3 is a Hoffman Specialty Series H Float and Thermostatic (F&T) steam trap designed for commercial and industrial heating applications. This Bear Trap features a 3/4" NPT connection with an H-pattern configuration that provides universal 4-port tappings with 2 inlet and 2 outlet ports for maximum installation flexibility and system monitoring capabilities.

Key Features:

• Cast iron construction with stainless steel internal components for durability and corrosion resistance
• Maximum operating pressure of 75 PSI with 75 PSI seat differential
• Capacity of 1,450 pounds per hour for efficient condensate removal
• 0.166" orifice size optimized for continuous drainage
• Dura-Stat thermostatic element tested through over 10 million cycles
• Below condensate level seat design prevents steam leakage
• Rugged thermostatic element eliminates air binding during startup
• Maximum temperature rating of 406°F
• Meets Military Specification A-A-60001 Type VI, Class 1-5

The H-pattern configuration allows steam to enter from either side of the trap and condensate to discharge from either the opposite or same side, providing exceptional piping flexibility. The continuous drainage design makes this trap ideal for low, medium, and high pressure steam mains, steam main drip traps, unit heaters, tank coils, shell and tube heat exchangers, and applications requiring fast air venting and the ability to handle widely varying loads. The thermostatic vent quickly vents air and non-condensable gases during startup, while the float mechanism provides modulating control to handle light or heavy condensate loads efficiently.
