STEAM & CONDENSATE

MANIFOLDS MP/M Series
 Streamline Your
A typical plant uses countless steam supply and condensate recovery
lines requiring huge numbers of valves and steam traps.
TLV's rugged and versatile all-in-one packages for steam distribution and
condensate collection simplify the control and management of your
steam system.

Features

Durable - Forged Steel Body

TLV Manifolds are constructed with a forged steel body for high endurance and an
extremely long service life, minimizing maintenance and replacement costs.
Valves rated for 3,000 operation cycles.

Easy Trap Replacement Trap Station QuickTrap R

Allows easy removal and replacement of steam traps with only 2 bolts, greatly
reducing maintenance time and labour costs.
Traps can be removed and replaced without disturbing piping.
Built-in blowdown valve and strainer reduce scale build up.
Built-in TrapMan test point.
®

Choice of Steam Trap - QuickTrap R

Freely choose from 3 different types of steam trap - free float, disc or thermostatic
type - depending on the application requirements. (See back page for further
information.)

Long Term Reliable Seal Piston Valve (MP Series, V1P/V2P Series)

Employs a high performance piston valve comprised of upper and lower valve rings made
of alternating layers of stainless steel and graphite that provide exceptional tight-sealing.
Also, it is possible to operate with the valve partially open.
The nuts for the valve bonnet can be tightened to stop any leaks from the seat area.

No Gland Leak Bellows Sealed Valve (M Series, V1/V2 Series)

Conserves energy by eliminating gland leaks.
Improves safety and working environment by removing steam clouds.
Enjoys a long service life through the utilization of stellite-hardened surfaces on valve
plug and valve seat.

Steam Main

Typical Application
TLV manifold packages are ideal for use
Condensate Return Line
in areas where steam distribution points
or condensate collection points are
gathered, e.g. tube tracing (right) or small
equipment piping. The compact size Product Line
reduces installation space and organizes
different steam and condensate lines,
steam traps and isolation valves into one
manageable package. Product Line

 Trap Stations - V1/ V2/ V1P/V2P
Combining a steam trap and a valve, Trap Stations facilitate simplification of piping.
䖃㻌The V1/V2 series employs a bellows valve for zero gland leaks, and the V1P/V2P series uses a piston valve exhibiting reliable sealing.
䖃㻌The steam trap can be selected from the QuickTrap series (free float, disc, and thermostatic types) to most suit the particular application.
䖃㻌The V1/V1P series have a valve on the inlet side, the V2/V2P series have valves on the inlet and outlet sides. Models equipping a
blowdown valve to flush out the interior, and a test valve to check trap operation are also available.
䖃㻌The V1/V1P series are for applications with the outlet side open to the atmosphere.
The V2/V2P series are for applications with the outlet side piping used for condensate recovery.
