I have a question, thank you. !

Is it necessary to install a steam trap or something similar in this non-condensing exhaust pipe? What is the purpose of the hand valve below? Can the pipeline go upward or downward? ? Thank you to all the brothers
At the lowest point, there must be a drain valve to allow water to be drained; during pipe cleaning and similar tasks, water also accumulates at that point, so it needs to be drained
Although it is said to be non-condensable, it isn’t 100% non-condensable; therefore, a drain pipe is installed at the lowest point, along with a manual valve, as it is not used frequently.
Non-condensable gases do not require the installation of a steam trap
Does \"non-condensable gas\" refer to non-condensable steam or other gases? Hand valves are used to periodically discharge non-condensable gases.
Mm-hmm, thank you. Surely, if there’s no condensation at all, then the pipes for draining water from the equipment are quite long. Is it necessary to install a drain valve over such a distance?
It might contain some moisture, but it can’t be completely non-condensable. .
