    I used to work in a hospital. All along the main steam line there would be a chitter chatter tapping noise, it sounded like morse code but not beeps. A guy I worked with said it was the traps on the drip legs. It seems like the only plausible explanation, the valve opening and shutting. However, if there are hundreds of taps/chatters a minute, the valve flickering open and shut like that, does that not suggest something’s wrong with the valve? Or is it normal for a trap to chatter like this? Any help would be greatly appreciated, I tried google but can only find pages discussing using electronic listening devices to hear through the static whether or not a traps functioning correctly

      Convergence Training the only thing it could’ve been was the steam straps. Could very well have been the wrong size traps, they seemed to have a one size fits all approach

      Convergence Training and yeah it would happen continuously. Very rarely did the main steam line get isolated and I heard this chattering every day

      Convergence Training the place had horrendous water hammer, I’ve tried finding a video of water hammer as bad as it was in this place but can’t find anything even close, was deafening. I think the water hammer was in the condense line though, passing steam traps causing cavitation
