Swagelok SS-AVT8-F8-M2 Automatic Variable Orifice Steam Trap uses a thermodynamic variable orifice to automatically drain condensate from steam piping while minimizing steam loss. The stainless-steel body accepts 1/2 in NPT threaded connections and is configured for straight horizontal installation, with a 10–100 psi operating range, making it suitable for saturated steam systems requiring reliable condensate removal. This model, identified by the SS-AVT8-F8-M2 designation, is designed to provide automatic condensate control in steam lines without external power or complex controls.
