Available in sizes 1/2", 3/4", 1" HC, 1-1/2", and 2". The Spirax / Sarco FT-14 1/2", 3/4" and 1" HC are constructed with a ductile iron body and the 1-1/2" and 2" models have a cast iron body. All sizes are constructed with Stainless Steel internals. Options available for the FT-14 only is a combination (C) Air Vent and SLR (steam lock release). Pressures available in this series are 65 psig, 145 psig and 200 psig.
The FT14 features rugged cast iron (1") or ductile iron (1-1/2" and 2") construction for pressures up to 200 psig. The convenient in-line connections allow for servicing of all trap internals without removing the trap from the pipeline. The stainless steel air vent, float, and valve eliminate air binding, resist corrosion and allow for continuous drainage of condensate.
The Spirax/Sarco FT14 Steam trap contains a float valve mechanism which modulates to discharge condensate continuously at steam temperature, while non-condensable gases are released by a separate internal balanced pressure thermostatic air vent. Typical applications for the Spirax Sarco FT14 are all process equipment, particularly when controlled by modulating temperature control valves; also for unit heaters, air heating coils, heat exchangers and steam main drip stations.

Item Features
Durable SG Iron Body:
The trap is housed in a robust SG iron body, ensuring longevity and resistance to wear.
Stainless Steel Internals:
The use of stainless steel for the internal components, including the float, valve, and seat, provides corrosion resistance and reliable performance.
Integral Automatic Air Vent:
An automatic air vent is included to release air and non-condensable gases, preventing air binding and maintaining efficient steam system operation.
PN16 Design:
The FT14 is designed to withstand pressures up to 16 bar (PN16), making it suitable for a range of steam applications.
Horizontal and Vertical Connections:
The trap can be configured for both horizontal and vertical pipework orientations, offering flexibility in installation.
Easy Maintenance:
The FT14 can be maintained without needing to disconnect the pipework, simplifying maintenance procedures.
Modulating Valve Orifice Mechanism:
The trap utilizes a modulating valve mechanism, which allows for continuous discharge of condensate and air, ensuring efficient heat transfer and preventing steam loss.
High-Quality Product:
The FT14 is manufactured to high standards, ensuring reliable and consistent performance.
Various Sizes and Pressure Ratings:
