PURPOSE & SCOPE
This specification covers the design and construction, IBR requirements, documentation,
testing, inspection, marking and dispatch requirements for Traps. Vendor shall supply
Traps in accordance with the technical notes and details specified in the data sheet for
steam/air traps. Supplier shall strictly comply with MR/PR stipulations and no deviations
shall be permitted. Post order Concession/ Deviation format 5-0000-0180-F 1 as mentioned
in Cl. 5.18 of Specification for Quality Management System Requirements from Bidders
(6-78-0001) is not applicable.
DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION
All Codes and Standards for manufacture, testing and inspection etc. shall be of latest
editions.
‘The material of construction shall be as per the data sheet; for parts not mentioned in the
datasheet, vendor shall guarantee the material used for the service conditions specified. For
flanged traps, MOC of end flanges shall correspond to the material specified in the data
sheet.
For welding of dissimilar materials required for trap assembly, welder qualification
procedure shall be done prior to welding,
‘The material composition, physical properties, heat treatment & mandatory test reports,
dimensions and tolerances shall conform to the applicable codes/standards/specifications as
specified in the requisition,
All traps shall be designed with back pressure up to 80% of upstream pressure unless
otherwise specified in the datasheet.
All traps shall have an integral strainer which can be serviced and its material shall be
$$304/S8316. However, Ball Float and Inverted Bucket traps may be supplied with
separate strainer of trap or line size, but vendor should quote composite price for the same,
Trap and strainer shall be supplied in assembled condition having strainer in the upstream.
This strainer shall be of Y-type having 40mesh size and material of construction for body
and internals shall be same as that of trap.
‘Thermodynamic traps shall have seat integral or seal-welded to the body & central entry
with respect to the disc. ‘The seat and disc shall be differentially hardened to Re 45-50 and
Re 40-45 respectively maintaining a minimum difference of Rc 5 to ensure wear on the
dise.
‘Thermostatic traps shall be designed with subcool temperature setting as per data sheet. If
nothing is specified in data sheet, subcooling of 10 Deg C should be considered by default.
Upto 300 Class rating, Composite Impulse cum Thermodynamic type steam trap with two
integral strainers in place of Thermodynamic and Thermostatic trap is also acceptable,
Inverted bucket steam trap shall be of horizontal entry & exit type.
For flanged end traps, weld-on flanges are also acceptable. However, the type of flange
shall be WN

IBR REQUIREMENTS
IBR Documentation
Traps coming under the purview of IBR (Indian Boiler Regulations) shall be accompanied
with IBR Certificate original in Form Ill C duly approved and countersigned by IBR
authority / local authority empowered by Central Boiler Board of India. Photocopy of
original certificate duly aitested by the local boiler inspector where the supplier is located
is the minimum requirement for acceptance
For carbon steel traps described as “IBR”, chemical composition for all carbon steel
‘components shall conform to the following
