Looking for Spirax Sarco products and services?

Purposeful, intuitive design makes BT6-M the go-to sanitary steam trap module for pharmaceutical and biotech applications. The BT6-M is the efficient, compact, and reliable solution for enhanced hygienic performance, reducing need for multi-component assemblies with integrated upstream isolation and minimising condensate build-up and contamination risk with full drainability.  

With minimal subcooling leading to a reduced cooling leg, the BT6-M offers optimum time and energy efficiency, minimising live steam loss and repeat SIP cycles. Its high-sensitivity thermostatic capsule ensures reliable SIP/CIP cycles, perfect for pure steam systems with strict sterility needs, offering regulatory compliance and assurance.

Reduce complexity and guarantee sterility across steam barriers, process lines, vessels and reactors with the BT6-M

Take a closer look: BT6-M sanitary steam trap module

The BT6-M tackles key challenges:

  1. Condensate build-up and non-drainable pockets

    The BT6-M’s crevice free, 316L stainless steel body with a 15° seat angle delivers full drainability, minimising condensate backup and improving hygienic performance.

  2. Energy loss from poorly performing traps

    Minimise live steam loss and drive energy optimisation thanks to the BT6-M’s high-sensitivity thermostatic capsule, offering quick air and condensate drainage, operating within a two degrees of steam saturation.

  3. Complex, space hungry installations

    The BT6-M integrates upstream isolation and trapping in a single hygienic module, allowing reduced cooling legs (typically to 50 mm), more compact layouts, fewer welds and simpler skid and line design.

  4. Audit, validation and documentation gaps

    The BT6-M’s comprehensive validation pack (EN 10204 3.1, FDA, USP Class VI, ADI/TSE/BSE free statements and ISO Class 7 cleanroom packaging) gives QA teams a single, traceable documentation set for regulated applications, reducing delays and complications during inspections.

Say goodbye to stagnation and inefficiency

Reduce condensate build-up & non-drainable pockets with BT6-M’s self-draining trapping solution, designed for pure steam with guaranteed compliance.
