Xylem 404218 Float Thermostatic Steam Trap - FT175H-4 1

The Hoffman Specialty FT175H-4 is a 1-inch float and thermostatic steam trap designed for continuous condensate drainage in steam systems with modulating pressures and varying loads. This H-pattern configuration trap features a 1" connection and is constructed of cast iron with a 175 psi maximum operating pressure.

Key Features:

• Universal 4-port tappings (2 inlets, 2 outlets) provide versatility for easy piping and system monitoring
• Stainless steel internal parts for durability and corrosion resistance
• Below-condensate seat design prevents steam leakage
• Rugged thermostatic element eliminates air binding
• Maximum temperature rating of 406°F
• Cover assembly can be replaced without disturbing piping

These traps are designed for service on heat exchange equipment where there is a need to vent air and non-condensable gases quickly, and are recommended for modulating pressures where widely varying loads are present. They vent air at very low pressures, handle start-up air loads, operate against back pressure and provide continuous condensate drainage. The H-pattern design allows steam to enter from either side and condensate to discharge from the same or opposite side, providing maximum installation flexibility. Hoffman Specialty is a Xylem brand with over a century of expertise in steam and hydronic systems.
