Mechanical Pump Trap Operation

Demonstration and operation of an Armstrong mechanical pump trap.
Features Include:
Non-electric
Utilizes inexpensive steam, air or gas for operation and has no seals, motors, impellers or electric components, which frequently fail.
Wear and corrosion resistance
Mechanism frame assembly is constructed of rugged investment-cast stainless steel components.
Stress chloride corrosion resistance
Inconel X-750 springs have higher resistance to the stress that causes lower-grade stainless steel springs to fail.
Corrosion resistance
Entire float mechanism is stainless steel. Float is Heliarc welded to avoid the introduction of dissimilar metals, which could lead to galvanic corrosion and float failure.
Externally replaceable valve and seat assembly
Maintenance is a "snap" with hardened stainless steel valves that can be cleaned or replaced without cap removal .
Explosion proof
Intrinsically safe due to all-stainless steel construction of mechanism.
Long life and dependable service
Simple float/spring operation and rugged all-stainless steel construction allow for long, trouble-free service life.
Compact, low-profile design
Low-profile design allows for maximum pump capacity with minimal fill head and floor space requirements. PT-300 Series horizontal tank design provides the highest capacity with the lowest profile on the market.

Nice demos...thanks.

[@NemoTheGlover]

Awesome video sir thank you !

[@scofield813]

excellent demo. thanks

[@educatedrock]

excellent display.

[@1step2step3step]

can i please have the schematic of this?

[@ronniejoseph4881]

Steam trapping involves not letting steam flow out of the system and only allowing condensate to go out. The device demonstrated shows no method of achieving any steam trapping. It is only acting like a pressure powered pump. Then why is it referred to as a trap?

Technically an "alternating receiver". Called a "boiler return trap" in the 1920's.

please help me and be kind to share to me the schematics of thi i whant to build something smaller of this nature. I am a complete noob but i whan to build something.
