OPT pinch steam trap handles pipeline dirt and lasts up to five times longer than other traps while saving at least 10% in steam costs. It is freeze protected, self-draining, has no moving parts, fails in the open position, and is back pressure insensitive. The unit installs in any position, has automatic air venting, and allows a continuous flow of low-velocity condensate. Ogontz Corp.
