Ari-Cona Steam Traps

The Ari-Cona Steam Traps by ARI Armaturen are advanced, energy-efficient steam traps designed to optimise condensate management in industrial steam systems. These steam traps deliver reliable performance, helping reduce energy waste and maintenance costs across various applications, including high-pressure and fluctuating load systems. With models like the CONA® S, SC, and P, this range covers a broad spectrum of operational requirements, providing flexibility and durability for industries such as power generation, chemical processing, and manufacturing.

Key Features:

- Variety of Models: The Ari-Cona range includes several types of steam traps: thermodynamic, ball float, and bimetallic models. The CONA® S/SC models, for instance, use a ball float mechanism that ensures continuous discharge of hot condensate, even at low-pressure differentials, making them ideal for systems with fluctuating loads​.

- Durable Construction: These steam traps are made from high-quality materials like stainless steel and Inconel alloys, providing exceptional durability and corrosion resistance. The Inconel X-750 springs used in several models are highly resistant to temperature and pressure variations, extending the product's operational life​.

- Energy Efficiency: Designed for maximum energy recovery, Ari-Cona Steam Traps allow the condensate to be pumped up to boiling temperature, reducing energy loss in the system. The self-acting, mechanical operation eliminates the need for electricity, which further contributes to energy savings​.

- Integrated Solutions: The modular design of Ari-Cona traps allows for easy servicing and replacement of components without dismantling the entire unit. This reduces downtime and maintenance costs. The integrated check valve in some models eliminates the need for an additional valve, saving space and improving installation efficiency​.

- Versatile Connection Options: Ari-Cona Steam Traps are available with screwed, flanged, or butt-weld connections, making them adaptable to various piping systems. This flexibility ensures compatibility with existing infrastructure​. 

Technical Specifications:

  • Operating Pressure: Up to PN63 or PN100 depending on the model, with maximum allowable working pressures reaching 80 bar for high-pressure applications​.
  • Operating Temperature: Models like the CONA® can operate within a wide temperature range from -10°C to 350°C, ensuring reliability even under extreme conditions​.
  • Nominal Diameter: Available in sizes ranging from DN15 to DN100, providing options for small to large flow capacities​.
  • Flow Capacity: High flow rates can be handled by certain models, particularly the CONA® P, designed for large condensate loads with low differential pressures​.

Applications:

  • Ideal for use in power plants, chemical processing, and industrial steam systems, Ari-Cona Steam Traps ensure efficient condensate removal across a wide variety of system pressures and loads. The robust design also makes them suitable for use in explosive environments, where reliability and safety are paramount​.
