Spirax-Sarco 62652 Vent Kit

The Spirax-Sarco 62652 Vent Kit is a critical maintenance component designed for professional-grade float and thermostatic steam trap repair. Specifically engineered for the Spirax Sarco FT series, including FTB, FTI, and FTS configurations, this thermostatic air vent assembly ensures the efficient removal of non-condensable gases from your steam system. When air remains trapped in the line, it forms an insulating film that reduces heat transfer and contributes to system corrosion. By installing the 62652 replacement kit, technicians can restore the trap's ability to discharge air rapidly upon start-up, preventing air binding and ensuring the trap operates at its full rated capacity. This OEM steam trap part is compatible with various pressure ratings from FT-15 up to FT-200 and is constructed for extreme durability in high-demand industrial environments. Regular replacement of the air vent element during routine inspection is a best practice to maintain thermal efficiency and protect downstream equipment from the effects of sluggish air removal.

• Broad Compatibility: Fits all sizes of Spirax Sarco FTB, FTI, and FTS float and thermostatic traps, excluding the FT-14 series.
• Enhanced System Efficiency: Eliminates air and non-condensable gases that cause air binding and reduce heat exchange performance.
• Corrosion Prevention: Reduces the presence of oxygen and CO2, which significantly lowers the risk of oxidative corrosion in the steam and condensate return lines.
• Professional Grade Design: High-quality stainless steel and thermostatic materials withstand frequent cycling and high-pressure steam applications.

• How do I know if my air vent kit needs replacement? If the steam trap is sluggish during start-up or if you notice air binding issues despite the float mechanism being functional, the thermostatic element in the air vent may be fatigued or failed.
• Can this kit be installed without removing the trap from the piping? Yes, you can typically access the internal components by removing the cover bolts, allowing for simplified on-the-job installation without disturbing the main line connections.
• Is this kit compatible with FT-14 series traps? No, the 62652 is recommended for FTB, FT, FTI, and FTS series; the FT-14 series requires a different manufacturer-specified kit.
