Mepco (Dunham Bush) C5940 Disc
The Mepco (Dunham Bush) C5940 Disc is a high-performance thermostatic steam trap component designed for 1/2" 1E series radiator traps. As a veteran-grade steam trap repair part, the C5940 serves as a sealed, liquid-filled capsule that precisely manages condensate discharge while preventing live steam loss. This replacement thermostatic disc is engineered for a maximum operating pressure of 25 psi and temperatures up to 267°F, making it a critical asset for maintaining HVAC steam system efficiency in residential and commercial fin tube heating or radiator applications. Technical specifications confirm that the Mepco C5940 is identical to DN1020, ensuring a direct-fit swap-out for existing 1E series 1/2" traps. Constructed from durable stainless steel, this steam trap disc provides the rapid thermal response necessary to open for air and cooled condensate while closing tightly against steam to preserve system pressure and reduce energy waste. For contractors, sourcing the Mepco 1E Disc ensures compatibility with V1A, V1B, and standard 1E trap bodies.
Key Benefits- Universal Compatibility: Functions as a direct replacement for both Mepco C5940 and DN1020 models across the 1E radiator trap series.
- Precision Thermal Response: The liquid-filled element reacts instantly to temperature changes, ensuring optimal air venting and condensate drainage.
- Industrial-Grade Construction: Stainless steel housing provides resistance to water hammer and corrosive condensate in demanding steam environments.
- Pressure Regulation: Rated for consistent operation in systems ranging from 25 inches Hg vacuum to 25 psi.
Is the Mepco C5940 compatible with other Dunham Bush traps?
The C5940 is specifically designed for 1/2" 1E series traps. For 3/4" 2E or 1" 3C series traps, different disc models (such as C5941 or C5942) must be used to ensure proper seating and operation.
How do I know if my thermostatic disc has failed?
Failure is typically indicated by a "cold radiator" (disc failed closed, blocking condensate) or steam blowing through the return line (disc failed open), both of which signal the need for a replacement 1E disc.
Can I use the DN1020 in place of the C5940?
Yes, these parts are technically identical in dimensions and thermal properties, allowing them to be used interchangeably without modifying the trap body or cap.
