Sectional View of No. I Trap
Dunham Radiator Trap The Dunham Radiator Trap first put into service' in 1903 completely revolu tionized Steam Heating. The Dunham Thermostatic Trap con sists of two major parts, a body, and a cover. I n the cover the operating member, the Dunham Thermostatic Disc, is securely placed. It has an exceptionally large valve opening. There are no detached
loose parts in the path of flow, no sliding contacts to gum up, and no guide or pin to obstruct the valve opening or cause the valve to wear unevenly. The position and design of the valve is such that it is self-cleaning, and the closing of the trap will be tight even where the water is high in incrustants which deposit oh the interior of the piping. The action of the disc is positive and the floating valve seats squarely, like a globe valve. The body is . standardized, also the cover and disc, giving the further advantage of inter
changeable parts. The traps conform with the standard
dimension of 3K in. from center of trap to end of'union nipple, as adopted by The Heating and Piping Contractors' National Association for one-half in. radiator traps.
The working part of the Trap, the Ther mostatic Disc, is fully exposed to theactual conditions within the. radiator and it, therefore, responds instantly to any change taking place therein, preventing waste of unused steam, backing up of water and air binding.
It is made in five sizes and for varying pressures not to exceed 10 lb. gage.
These traps are used principally in steam heating work where they are attached to all forms and types of radiation, and to steam piping and risers for dripping pur poses. The Nos. 1 and 2 Traps are used almost exclusively on radiators. The No. 3 Trap is used for large radiators, for . medium size pipecoils, and is particularly adaptable for dripping risers and short runs of steam piping. The Nos. 4 and 5 Traps are used where traps of large capac ity are required on large pipe coils, for drip ping main steam risers, and steam mains.

It handles air and condensate. Adapted for process work, hospital sterilizers and
distilling apparatus, steam tables and kitchen equipment where a steam pressure of from 0 to 60 lb. is used.
Dunham Packless Radiator Valve
This valve is really "packless." Neither packing of any kind nor any springs are used in its construction. It is built in two specific styles.
The lever handle valve is furnished in angle pattern only and recommended for hot water type radiators with top inlet connection in keeping with
the most approved modern steam heating practice. The low bonnet is one of the at tractive features of the valve.
The wheel handle valve can be used on any steam system and is furnished as follows:
Type 140-Wheel Handle angle pattern, straightway pattern, right Type 100-Lever Handle hand pattern and left hand pattern.
Only the best of materials are used. Both types are neat in appearance, and are quick opening and closing valves.
. The valve is made packless by means of the bellows construction, consisting of a series of corrugated phosphor bronze diaphragms which permit the free up and down move ment of the spindle and valve disc. This construction obviates the use of springs, packing or stuffing boxes of any kind and entirely prevents the leakage of steam, air or water.
Made in following sizes: Lever

Type 140 made in angle, straightway and corner patterns and can be supplied with wheel or lever handle.
The valves can be supplied with lock and shield, and special extension stems for use on radiators behind grilles, seats, etc., or on ceiling of the room.
