How It Works
The UC450 universal connector is permanently installed into the pipeline where the steam trap would normally be placed. The trap module, which functions like any F&T steam trap, is fastened to the universal connector with two bolts. When a new trap module is needed, it can be easily removed and replaced with a standard open-end or socket wrench without disturbing the existing piping.
Selection / Sizing / Capacities
Select a model with a PMO (maximum operating pressure) that meets or exceeds the steam pressure of the system.
Example: The UFT450-65 has a maximum operating pressure of 65 PSI. Any universal connector can be used. Recommended connector: UC450SR.
Options
Universal Connectors are available with an integral strainer and blowdown valve. Connector is purchased separately. See the Universal Connectors section for more information.
