The Spirax Sarco BT6-B is a sanitary balanced pressure thermostatic steam trap that has been developed for use in hygienic environments such as the pharmaceutical, biotechnological and food processing industries to remove condensate with the minimum of condensate retention.
The standard element is designed to open with a minimum of sub-cooling, typically less than 3.6 F from steam saturation temperature at pressures below 36 psig (2.5 bar g). Condensate is discharged close to steam saturation temperature and ensures minimal condensate back-up. The self-draining product is made from stainless steel with high surface finish and an FDA and USP class VI compliant seal.
