ABSTRACT:
A condensate trap assembly comprises a valve body 2 having a housing 14 which defines an inlet passage 10 and an outlet passage 12, and an access passage 16 within which a condensate trap 4 is housed. The housing 14 also defines a valve chamber 18 within which a valve element 6 is received for rotation, the valve element 6 comprising a body within which there are provided flow passageways 22A, 22B, 22C. The valve element 6 has a projection 36 which extends into the access passage 16. The projection 36 prevents debris from collecting within the valve chamber 18, and the projection 36 may have a recessed channel 40 for catching any such debris.
