Guides & Resources

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about ARMSTRONG INTERNATIONAL from 3G Electric.

What is the maximum pressure rating for Armstrong International inverted bucket steam traps?

Armstrong International inverted bucket steam traps are available with maximum pressure ratings from 125 psi to 650 psi, depending on the model. For example, the cast iron 883-075-250 is rated to 250 psi, while the stainless steel 1811-075-400 handles up to 400 psi. The 1822-100-250 model is rated to 250 psi, and another stainless steel variant reaches 650 psi. These ratings reflect the pressure of the steam system at the trap inlet. Selection should consider the maximum operating pressure and temperature of the application, as well as the required condensate capacity. Always verify the specific model's pressure-temperature limits before installation.

What materials are used in Armstrong International corrosion-resistant steam traps?

Armstrong International corrosion-resistant inverted bucket steam traps feature stainless steel bodies and internal components. This construction provides resistance to corrosion from condensate and environmental factors. Models such as the 1811-075-400 and 1822-100-250 use stainless steel for the body, bucket, and valve mechanism. Stainless steel is suitable for applications where carbon steel or cast iron would degrade, such as systems with aggressive condensate or high-purity requirements. The traps are available with FNPT connections in sizes from 1/2 in to 1 in. These traps are designed for horizontal installation and in-line configuration.

What is the difference between Armstrong International cast iron and stainless steel steam traps?

Armstrong International cast iron steam traps, such as the 883-075-250, are typically used in standard steam applications where corrosion is not a primary concern. They offer a cost-effective solution for pressures up to 250 psi and temperatures up to 450°F. Stainless steel traps, like the 1811-075-400 and 1822-100-250, provide enhanced corrosion resistance and can handle higher pressures and temperatures, with some models rated to 650 psi and 600°F. Stainless steel traps are often specified for systems with corrosive condensate, outdoor installations, or where longer service life is desired. Both types use the inverted bucket operating principle and are available with FNPT connections.

Are strainers included with Armstrong International steam traps?

Some Armstrong International steam traps include an integral strainer, while others do not. For instance, the cast iron 883-075-250 model comes with a strainer included. The corrosion-resistant stainless steel models, such as the 1811-075-400 and 1822-100-250, are supplied without a strainer. If a strainer is required, it can be specified separately or an inline strainer can be installed upstream. Armstrong International also offers standalone inline strainers, such as the 304 stainless steel unit with a 3/4 in NPT connection and perforated screen. The choice depends on the cleanliness of the steam system and maintenance practices.

What is the capacity range of Armstrong International inverted bucket steam traps?

Armstrong International inverted bucket steam traps are available with condensate capacity ratings from 600 lb/hr to 3,500 lb/hr. The cast iron 883-075-250 has a capacity of 3,500 lb/hr, while the stainless steel models range from 600 lb/hr to 1,500 lb/hr. Capacity is determined by the orifice size and pressure differential across the trap. When selecting a trap, the required capacity should be based on the maximum condensate load, including start-up conditions and safety factors. The capacity ratings provided are for specific pressure differentials; consult the product data for detailed capacity charts.

What connection sizes are available for Armstrong International steam traps?

Armstrong International inverted bucket steam traps are offered with FNPT connections in sizes including 1/2 in, 3/4 in, and 1 in. The 1/2 in size is available in models like the 1811-050-400 and 1811-050-200, with capacities of 600 lb/hr and 900 lb/hr respectively. The 3/4 in size includes the cast iron 883-075-250 and stainless steel 1811-075-400. The 1 in size is represented by the 1822-100-250 and another model rated to 650 psi. These sizes cover common steam line connections in industrial plants. Adapters may be used to transition between sizes if necessary.
