Unit assists in preventing water hammer, providing stable temperature control and reducing maintenance costs.

TLV’s GT5C PowerTrap combines both a pump and trap for removing condensate from air heaters, jacketed vessels, tank coils and plate and frame heat exchangers with minimal clearance or fill height.  The GT5C PowerTrap helps provide complete condensate drainage when process equipment is operating under stall conditions. By completely draining equipment, the GT5C PowerTrap assists in preventing water hammer, providing stable temperature control and reducing maintenance costs.

The unit features a non-electric design, which ensures no cavitation or seal leakage. The low fill height requirement of six inches makes it suitable for many light-load, low-fill elevation applications, TLV’s GT5C is available with 1-inch NPT connections in both cast iron and cast stainless-steel bodies.
