Steam Traps Steam traps are essential devices used to automatically discharge condensate and non-condensable gases from steam systems while preventing the loss of live steam. Inverted bucket steam traps operate using the buoyancy principle: an inverted bucket rises and falls according to condensate levels. They are durable, resistant to water hammer, and suitable for medium to high-pressure applications. However, they require priming and may lose efficiency if the bucket loses its water seal Flo
