Benefits of a Steam Trap Audit

Properly functioning steam traps open to release condensate and automatically close when steam is present. Failed traps waste fuel, reduce efficiency, increase production costs and compromise the overall integrity of the steam and condensate systems. An audit can provide benefits in the following areas:

Improve System
Performance
Reduce Risk of
Failure
Meet Sustainability
Targets
Achieve Safety Standards
and Compliance

Why Your Facility Needs A Steam Trap Audit

A Steam Trap Survey is a review of your facilities’ steam system to identify oversized, misapplied, failing or leaky steam traps. Identifying these traps will not only substantially cut energy waste, and fuel dollars spent, but will also optimize your plant’s performance, improve system reliability, reduce maintenance costs and increase uptime, all while also positively impacting the environment!

Productivity and process improvement

Healthy steam traps enable the steam system to deliver the thermal energy required for your process applications to operate effectively. Condensate in your steam supply can affect the operation of applications, causing issues such as slow start up times and poor heat transfer. Removing the condensate from your system allows the steam to perform its task within your process efficiently.

Ease of maintenance whilst ensuring maximum up time

Supply and installation of replacement components that are quick and easy to maintain by either your maintenance team or our experienced service teams to ensure reliable delivery of steam to your process. This reduces the risk of unplanned failures and lowers the overall cost of ownership of the steam system.

Sustainable energy savings and reduced carbon emissions
Returning condensate to your boiler feed tank can save energy costs and reduce the need for replacement water and treatment chemicals, all the while maintaining production and product quality.
Improved health and safety
As with all the utilities in your plant, steam must be well managed to ensure safe operation. Steam traps that are unable to remove condensate from your system pose a potential hazard. Effective steam trapping allows condensate to be removed from your system, reducing the likelihood of potentially hazardous situations.
