33, p. 50 illustrates the recommended piping
configuration for the steam coils.
a. Install a strainer in each return line before the
steam trap.
b. Trap each steam coil separately as described in
Step 10Installation_Steam Heat Units and Step
11Installation_Steam Heat Units to prevent
condensate backup in one or both coils.
c. In order to prevent condensate backup in the piping
header supplying both coil sections, a drain must
be installed utilizing a strainer and a steam trap as
illustrated in Figure 33, p. 50.
