3. Installation

IM-P071-02 CMGT Issue 3 9

HP70 Series Bimetallic Steam Trap

The Spirax Sarco HP70 is a bimetallic steam trap.

This trap operates on the basis of two opposing forces acting on the valve - an opening force created by the

valve opening spring, and a closing force resulting from the condensate temperature acting on the bimetallic

elements.

It operates with no loss of steam and automatically and quickly drains air, non-condensable gases and large

quantities of cold water on start-up.

After installation or maintenance ensure that the system is fully functioning. Carry out tests on

any alarms or protective devices.

Note: During commissioning the valve may need resetting to take account of any backpressure

in the return line.

5. Operation

IM-P071-02 CMGT Issue 3

HP70 Series Bimetallic Steam Trap

Important note:

Before actioning any maintenance programme observe the 'Safety information' in Section 1.

Safety note:

This trap is installed in high pressure steam lines. Personnel doing the adjustment work should

wear heavy gloves, long sleeve shirt, and other safety equipment designed to protect the wearer

(goggles, face shield, etc.) in the event of a leak.

The equipment needed to proceed with any maintenance programme is listed in Table 1.

The HP70 has an external adjustment screw, which permits the flushing of the trap seat and

the setting of the discharge temperature of the condensate in the inlet line allowing optimum

performance to be achieved.

Maintenance note:

Maintenance can be completed with the trap in the pipeline, once the safety procedures

have been observed. It is recommended that new gaskets and spares are used whenever maintenance is

undertaken. Ensure that the correct tools and necessary protective

equipment are used at all times. When maintenance is complete open isolation valves

slowly and check for leaks.

6.1 Trap seat flushing during operation

This maintenance operation should be performed once every six months.

To clean the steam trap during operation, it is advisable to close the steam inlet valve before turning

the adjustment screw, and proceed as follows: (in a closed return system, close the discharge line

and open the test valve):

-Remove the blind nut (11) and loosen the locking gland nut (6) by turning clockwise.

Note: the gland nut and adjustment screw have left hand threads.

-Using a screwdriver, loosen the adjustment screw a few turns, clockwise. This completely disengages

the valve from the valve seat (12).

-Open the steam inlet valve slightly. This causes a strong purging action, which removes any impurities

that may have been deposited in the steam trap.

-Turn the adjustment screw anticlockwise until the valve comes into contact with the valve seat (12).

Turn through a further ¼turn anticlockwise.

-Retighten the locking gland nut (6) to the recommended torque (see Table 1) in order to lock and

reduce leakage past the adjustment screw.

-Replace the blind nut (11) and gasket (10) and tighten to the recommended torque as specified in

Table 1.

-Shut the test valve and open the discharge line valve and check for leaks.

-Allow the trap to operate for several minutes and review the operation to ensure it is correct.
