Optimizing steam system efficiency, the Hoffman 401542, also known as the 17C-AS-2-25, serves as a reliable thermostatic angle steam trap designed to effectively discharge condensate while preventing steam loss. This unit is supplied with a short nipple to facilitate a precise, low-profile installation within your hydronic or steam heating infrastructure, ensuring your system maintains peak thermal output.
This steam trap operates on a thermostatic principle, utilizing a pressure-sensitive element that reacts to temperature fluctuations. When condensate or air enters the trap, the internal bellows contract to open the valve orifice for discharge. As live steam reaches the trap, the element expands to close the orifice tightly, preventing the waste of valuable energy and protecting downstream equipment from water hammer or thermal shock.
Key System Performance Baselines:
- Condensate Management: Rapidly expels air and condensate upon startup to minimize system lag.
- Energy Efficiency: Tight sealing mechanism prevents live steam bypass to maximize fuel economy.
- Durable Construction: Engineered for longevity under constant pressure and thermal cycling.
- Compact Design: Angle pattern with included short nipple allows for tight-space configuration.
⚠️ Application Profile: Ideal for radiator drainage, unit heaters, steam coils, and institutional heating systems requiring precise condensate control.
