Why do bucket type steam traps have a small hole at the top of the bucket?
The small hole acts as a vent from where the bucket allows a small amount of air to be released. It then discharges downstream thus causing condensation to fill the bucket. Inverted bucket steam trap operation involves this condensate filled bucket sinking thus causing the lever to open the trap valve. This bucket trap has only 2 moving parts the valve lever assembly and the bucket. This eliminates the complicated linkage ar the fixed point linkage.
In bucket type steam trap, the bucket within the trap is attached to a lever that opens and closes the trap valve in response to the bucket’s motion.
Can a steam trap bucket be installed upside down?
These steam traps are available in 2 different types vertical and horizontal. In either case, they have to be installed upside down or sideways. You cannot install them straight.
