Attention
The steam trap is under pressure at start-up and during the operation.
The steam trap becomes hot during operation. This presents the risk of severe burns to
hands and arms.
Always wear industrial gloves when setting the regulator.
Installation and maintenance work may only be carried out when the system is
depressurised (zero bar).
Make sure that the lines upstream and downstream of the trap are
not under pressure!
Make sure that the flanged connections of the BK 37..., BK 28... or BK 29... are permanently bolted
and tight.

The factory setting of the Thermovit regulator enables the regulator to be steam-tight when closed and
to open just before the pressure-dependent boiling temperature is reached.
