Increase Energy Efficiency and Lifetime Cost!

A Steam Trap Management Program is a cost effective way to increase energy efficiency and reduce associated CO2 emissions.

Our Program Includes:
Steam Trap surveys and performance reports
Steam Trap repair and or upgrade replacement
Steam Trapping stations and associated equipment
Drain Valve Isolation and Bypass repairs and upgrades
A Steam Trap Management Program will improve the “Lifetime Cost” of the system:
Improves the overall efficiency and safety of plant.
Maintains high performance levels by eliminating weaknesses in design layout.
Reduces steam losses and associated costs with raising steam
Real (Lifetime) Cost = Energy Efficiency +Product Performance +Safety.
Steam trap surveys are a cost effective way of determining your lifetime costs. Deterioration of steam trap valve seats is determined as a quantitive value (the level of deterioration), which helps to assess the size of the steam leak and thus to calculate the steam loss. This unique solution enhances the accurate diagnosis of steam trap problems. Valves used on Trap Isolation and By-pass can also be tested to determine seat wear. The Trap Management Program Will determine steam losses over a period of time and a budget can be used against these losses. The steam trap reports will also identify the most reliable trap types by area and manufacturer.

This results in:
1. Less Leaking Traps
Less steam waste
Lower fuel costs and reduced CO2 emissions into the Atmosphere.
Lower rates of water make-up and associated pre-treatment chemical costs
Less wear on pumps and associated equipment.

2. Less Blocked Traps
Less damage from water hammer
Less corrosion in pipe work
Better quality of steam
Improved control on process
3. Less Valve Bypass/Packing Leakage
Less steam waste
Lower fuel costs and reduced CO2 emissions into the Atmosphere.
Lower rates of water make-up and associated pre-treatment chemical costs
Less wear on pumps and associated equipment.
