Description
SPIRAX TD 55 BD is a thermodynamic steam trap with in-built strainer screen and unique three port design. The three port design ensures parallel lifting of the disc and no wearing due to uneven seating of the disc enhancing the life of the trap. Integral Blowdown valve allows online cleaning of strainer screen. Typical applications include main distribution headers, turbine inlets etc.
During startup air is trapped in the control chamber of TD. Being air, it can not condense and hence the pressure will not drop. This causes the trap to fail in closed condition. TD 55 BDA is specially designed trap to overcome this air binding problem. It is a trap with a 100 mesh stainless steel screen & a special anti-air-binding disc.
