Pressure Reducing Equipment VYC Industrial Thermodynamic Steam Trap 041 042 Steam Condensate Extraction Valve for Steam Pipe

The VYC 041 and 042 are bimetallic thermostatic steam traps designed for draining condensate and venting air from steam lines and equipment. The 041 is screwed, the 042 is flanged. They use a bimetallic strip that opens/closes based on temperature difference, making them simple, compact and reliable for low to medium pressure steam applications.

• Bimetallic thermostatic element – no moving mechanical parts
• Automatic air venting during start-up
• Freeze-resistant design
• Small size and low weight
• In-line repairable (replaceable capsule)
• Stainless steel internals
• High resistance to waterhammer

• Models: 041 (screwed), 042 (flanged)
• Sizes: DN15 to DN25 (1/2" to 1")
• Maximum Operating Pressure (PMO): 16 bar g (041/042 standard)
• Maximum Differential Pressure: Up to 16 bar
• Maximum Temperature: 250 °C
• Body Material: Stainless steel AISI 316L
• Connections: Screwed (041), flanged PN40 (042)
• Orifice Sizes: Multiple available for flow matching

• Steam tracing lines
• Small heat exchangers
• Steam mains drip legs
• Line drainage in low-pressure systems
• Equipment where compact size is important

Q: Difference between 041 and 042? A: 041 is screwed connection, 042 is flanged.

Q: Freeze resistant? A: Yes – bimetallic element allows condensate drainage before freezing.
