Abstract
A steam trap is provided to remove condensed water from a steam pipe having an end to which the strap is connected. In one embodiment, the trap includes a hollow body having an inlet adapted to secure to the pipe end and an outlet, the body comprising a staged internal space; a blocking member secured in the space and comprising a central projection on either surface and a plurality of apertures around the projections; and an abutment member in the rear of the blocking member. Condensate is adapted to pass the apertures while the steam is substantially blocked by the apertures due to capillary action.
