Description
Hoffman Specialty Series C Float & Thermostatic Steam Trap — Model FT075C-8 (SKU 401890)
The Hoffman Specialty 401890 is a Series C Cast Iron Float & Thermostatic (F&T) Steam Trap engineered for reliable, continuous condensate drainage in commercial and industrial steam heating systems. With a 2″ NPT connection and a maximum allowable working pressure of 75 PSI, this trap handles demanding hydronic and process steam applications with proven durability.
How It Works
Float & Thermostatic traps combine two discharge mechanisms in a single body. The float valve continuously discharges condensate as it forms, while the thermostatic air vent automatically purges non-condensable gases (air and CO₂) from the system. This dual-action design eliminates air binding, promotes faster system warm-up, and ensures efficient heat transfer throughout the steam distribution system.
