🔍 Key Concepts

• Identify whether the device operates automatically based on liquid level, temperature, or pressure. • Look at the internal float and linkage to see what fluid entering the body would cause it to open or close. • Consider how condensate is normally removed from a steam-heated heat exchanger and what type of valve is used for that job.

💭 Think About

• Does the illustration show a mechanism that would meter steam going INTO a unit, or one that would discharge something coming OUT of it? Trace the likely flow path. • If the float rises when liquid accumulates in the body, what port (inlet or outlet) does it open? What kind of liquid would be collecting there in a steam system? • Which choice best matches an automatic valve that sits low in the system, with an inlet from a heat exchanger drain and an outlet to a return line?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify where the inlet and outlet connections on the body are located relative to the float. • Check whether the device appears designed to handle liquid accumulation (sump at the bottom, float, discharge orifice near the top). • Confirm which option refers specifically to controlling discharge from a steam-heated unit rather than controlling the steam supply or air in a refrigeration system.
