According to different working principle of the steam trap, the types of the steam trap can be turned into mechanical, thermal static model, thermodynamic model.
Mechanical type rely on steam trap with the changing of water level in the action, including ball float, float for a closed hollow sphere;
Exposure to float upwards, float for opening up the bucket;
Exposure to float downward, float down with the bucket.
Hot static type, depending on the liquid temperature change and action, including the bimetallic strip, original sensitive bimetallic strip;
Steam pressure type, sensitive for corrugated tube or cartridge, the original internal filling the volatile liquid thermodynamic model depends on the thermal dynamic nature of the change and action.
Including disc type, because under the same pressure, the liquid and the gas velocity is different, the different dynamic, static pressure and driving disc valve action;
Impulse type, due to the different temperature of the condensate by polar string orifice plate, sitting between the throttling orifice plate between the different pressure of form, the driven disc movement.
