Armstrong FTV-10FA 570200-482 10in 175PSI Float & Thermostatic Steam Trap

This is a new Armstrong FTV-10FA Float & Thermostatic (F&T) steam trap, product code 570200-482, as read directly from the nameplate affixed to the cast iron body. The FTV (Float & Thermostatic Valve) design uses a float-actuated main discharge valve combined with a thermostatic air vent, making it highly effective at continuously discharging condensate while venting non-condensable gases — a configuration widely used in process heating, unit heaters, shell-and-tube heat exchangers, and large steam mains. Per the nameplate, maximum allowable working pressure is 175 PSI and maximum temperature is 305°F; the unit connects via a flanged inlet/outlet (10 in nominal, as indicated by the "10" prefix in the model number and the large-bore flanged end visible in photos). The heavy cast iron body is finished in Armstrong's signature red epoxy coating, and the brass discharge connection visible at the top is consistent with standard Armstrong FTV trim. Date code on the nameplate reads 23-22, indicating manufacture in 2022/2023, and the unit ships in its original heavy-duty steel shipping crate.
