Abstract
The valve housing can be used for valves and steam traps with a compact automatic control unit. It has a connecting part with two flow ducts and a base on which the open end of a cap rests tightly. Two post-like projections with fastening orifices are provided on the longitudinal axis of the flow ducts on the connecting part next to the base and the cap. The cap has two laterally projecting screw bearings. They are arranged at a distance from the open end of the cap in front of the ends of the projections on the longitudinal axis of the flow ducts and are provided with screw holes. The cap is connected to the connecting part by two fastening screws which penetrate through the screw holes and are screwed into the fastening orifices of the projections.
