Armstrong traps are offered in two types for heating service, "standard" traps and "blast" traps. Standard traps are used for drip headers and unit heaters where little air is to be handled. Where large volumes of air must be removed quickly the blast trap is available.
The "Blast" . Type Trap--For fast handling of large quantities of air, the standard Armstrong trap can easily be furnished as a " blast " type trap by the use of a thermic bucket. The air handling capacity of this bucket is approximately 100 times as great as with the regular air vent. As long as the trap is cold a large vent in the top of this bucket remains open, and it is impossible for the bucket to float and close the valve with this vent
open. As soon as the air has been elimi nated and steam comes to the trap, the heat bends the strip of thermic metal sup porting a flat disc which closes the large vent. Thereafter, the trap functions in the normal manner. This thermic bucket can be supplied in any size Armstrong trap. The table on the following page gives the prices for traps so equipped.
Avoid Steam Trap Troubles--The customary troubles with steam traps are leaky valves, air-binding and plugging up with dirt or oil. The intermittent action of this trap and the metal used in the valves stop scoring and wire-drawing, the common sources of leakage. Air-binding is impossible because the air passes out of the bucket ahead of the steam through the

HOW THE ARMSTRONG STEAM TRAP WORKS
vent at the top. When the trap is dis charging, the flow of water under the bottom of- the bucket prevents the ac cumulation of any dirt, or sediment.
Simplicity--The Armstrong Steam Trap has only two moving parts--the valve lever assembly and the inverted bucket. Friction is practically eliminated in this mechanism. All wearing parts are made from nickel chrome steel except the discharge valve and seat which are made from a special chrome steel- heat treated after machining to obtain maximum hardness and toughness. Many years of service without maintenance expense is the customary experience of Armstrong trap users.
Large Capacity--Discharge orifices
used in Armstrong traps are very large in proportion to the size of the pipe con nections.
Armstrong trap capacity ratings are not theoretical but show actual test capacities when handling condensate at steam tem perature. The effect of flash steam and pipe friction to and from the trap is thus automatically taken into consideration.
Service Organization -- The satis factory operation of all Armstrong traps is assured by 44 district representatives in the United States, Canada and Hawaii. Stocks of these traps are carried in nearly 100 leading cities. We will gladly put you in touch with your nearest representative and see that any traps you need are sup plied promptly.
