For the pilot plant, since it isn’t in operation during winter, should the steam-heated drain valves be removed (to prevent freezing)? Thermodynamic steam trap (disk type)

There is no need to disassemble the steam trap; just ensure that the heat tracing remains in flow. Since the best solution is to avoid driving, the parts that contain water should be disassembled and cleaned using compressed air, with blind flanges installed

Each steam trap has a specified direction for installation; therefore, it is essential to follow the manufacturer’s instructions, which generally involve horizontal or vertical installation
