Spence TD16F Steam Trap

**Spirax Sarco TD16F Steam Trap** The Spirax Sarco TD16 and TD16F thermodynamic steam traps, the Spirax Sarco TD16 thermodynamic threaded steam trap, and the Spirax Sarco TD16F thermodynamic flanged steam trap are specifically designed for steam main drainage and tracing line equipment. However, they can also be used for other equipment within their temperature, pressure, and discharge range. **Limitations (ISO 6552)** Major valve body design conditions: PMO - Maximum operating pressure 16 barg TMO - Maximum operating temperature 300°C PMA - Maximum allowable pressure 25 barg Maximum allowable temperature 300°C Note: Minimum operating pressure is 0.2 barg PMOB - Maximum operating back pressure is 80% of upstream pressure. **Sizes and Pipe Connections** TD16: 1/2", 3/4", 1" threaded connection BSP or NPT TD16F: DN15, DN20, DN25 flanged connection PN16 **Installation** The Spirax Sarco TD16F steam trap is best installed horizontally, but can also be fitted in other positions. When the steam trap is exposed to low temperature environments or heavy rain, an insulation cover should be installed. **Maintenance** Before performing maintenance, the steam line upstream and downstream of the steam trap must be shut off, and the pressure reduced to atmospheric pressure. Wait for the steam trap to cool down before proceeding with maintenance. **Spare Parts** The solid lines in the practical section are available as spare parts; the dashed lines are not available as spare parts. **Ordering** Use the table above to order spare parts and specify the sizes, for example: 1 - Filter mesh and gasket for 1/2" Spirax Sarco TD16 thermodynamic steam trap. **Service** To service the **Spirax Sarco TD16F steam trap**, remove the isolation cover (if installed) and loosen the top cover with an appropriate wrench or socket. Avoid using pipe wrenches or similar tools, as they may distort the top cover. If the disc and seat surface are only slightly worn, they can be corrected by grinding on a flat surface. If the wear is excessive and cannot be repaired by simple grinding, the seat surface must be flattened, and the disc needs to be replaced. The thickness ground off by this method will exceed 0.25mm. When reassembling, the disc's recessed surface should contact the seat. Tighten the top cover using the recommended torque. No gasket is required; instead, apply an appropriate high-temperature anti-seize grease to the threads. **Cleaning or Replacing the Filter** Use a wrench or socket to unscrew the filter cap, remove the filter mesh, and clean it. If damaged, replace it. When reinstalling, apply a little lubricant to the first few threads of the filter cap. Ensure the gasket and sealing surfaces are clean. Tighten to the recommended torque.
