CS45H Inverted bucket steam trap is used in steam main and process applications to provide reliable condensate removal. Inverted bucket steam trap feature a steel body, stainless steel bucket and linkage, stainless steel valve and seat and non-asbestos cover gasket. CS45H Inverted bucket steam trap is water hammer resistant and drains condensate at saturation temperatures. Maximum Operating Pressure: 150psi (10 bar)

CS45H Inverted bucket steam trap introduction
The inverted bucket is the most reliable steam trap operating principle known. The heart of its simple design is a unique leverage system that multiplies the force provided by the bucket to open the valve against pressure.

Since the bucket is open at the bottom, it resists damage from water hammer, and wear points are heavily reinforced for long life. The inverted bucket has only two moving parts-the valve lever assembly and the bucket. That means no fixed points, no complicated linkage. Nothing to stick, bind or clog.

CS45H Inverted bucket steam trap open and close based on the difference in density between condensate and steam-the inverted bucket principle. They open and close gently, minimizing wear. This simple fact means that inverted buckets are subject to less wear than some other types of traps.

CS45H Inverted bucket steam trap provide essentially line contact-resulting in a tight seal because the entire closing force is concentrated on one narrow seating ring.

CS45H Inverted bucket steam trap continues to operate efficiently with use. Gradual wear slightly increases the diameter of the seat and alters the shape and diameter of the valve. But, as this occurs, a tight seal is still preserved-the ball merely seats itself more deeply.

CS45H Inverted bucket steam trap to be virtually free of dirt problems. The valve and seat are at the top of the trap, far away from the larger particles of dirt, which fall to the bottom. Here, the up-and-down action of the bucket pulverizes them.

Since the valve of an inverted bucket is either fully closed or open, dirt particles pass freely. And the swift flow of condensate from under the bucket's edge creates a unique self-scrubbing action that sweeps dirt out of the trap.
