WHAT IS A STEAM TRAP?

Steam Traps are a type of automatic valve that;

-Filters out condensate (i.e. condensed steam)

-Filters out non-condensable gases such as air

-Without letting steam escape.

Steam Traps are used in such applications to ensure that steam is not wasted.

STEAM TRAPS INSPECTION

Steam Leaks

-Steam is high-value commodity

-Each valve, piping flange, or drain that leaks

impacts the facility by increasing makeup water and

water treatment expenses.

-It is important to make every effort to repair

steam leaks as soon as they occur.

-In addition to wasting energy, steam leaks waste

boiler water and water treatment chemicals, and

can be dangerous to people and equipment. The

longer the steam leaks the bigger the leak will get.

Live Steam VS Flash Steam

STEAM TRAPS INSPECTION

Mechanical Steam Traps, like all other pieces of mechanical equipment, will fail in time.

They may fail closed, restricting the flow of steam, or they may fail open, freely passing

steam.

ORIGIN OF TECHNOLOGY

SMART VENTURI

STEAM TRAPSOPERATION

Flow is through primary strainer

Up through inlet port

Through secondary strainer

Through opening and Venturi

Exit to condensate return system

SMART VENTURI STEAM TRAPSOPERATION

• Flash steam occurs naturally after a trap due to the pressure drop

• At 150 PSI, flash steam = 16.1%

• Density (ρcondensate @ 150psi) = 55 lb/ft3

• Density (ρsteam @ 150psi) = 0.36 lb/ft3

• Steam is 153 times less dense as condensate

Steam restriction by means of:

• The flash steam expansion in Venturi creates back pressure

• Large change in density results in minimal steam flow

STEAM TRAPS COMPARISON

Mechanical Steam Traps

• Can fail open = expensive steam loss

• Moving parts = maintenance

• Moving parts = spare parts inventory

• Water hammer = damage

• Lifespan = 3 - 5 years

• Warranty = 1 year

SMART Venturi Steam Traps

• Cannot fail open = no steam loss

• No moving parts = minimal maintenance

• No moving parts = no spare parts

• No Water hammer = no damage

• Lifespan = 20 - 30 years

• Warranty = 20 years

FREE 30 DAY TRIAL

TRY OUR SMART STEAM TRAP FREE FOR 30 DAYS IN YOUR FACILITY!

Send SMART VALVES INC. (Smart Valves Inc.) your request. Smart Valves Inc. will send you a detailed cost proposal for your steam trap replacement needs. Execute the proposal and Smart Valves Inc. will send you the SMART Steam Traps and allow you to test the traps for 30 days prior to paying! If satisfied after 30 days, send the payment, if not, send back the SMART Steam Traps and no payment will be required.

SCOPE OF WORKTrap Testing ProcessSMART VALVES INC. will evaluate and document each trap station noting the following components:

• Isolation valves (inlet and outlet)

• Inlet strainers

• Blowdown valves on the strainer

• Outlet check valves (if needed)

• Trap station bypass

• Test valves or sight glass flow indicator.

We will tag trap with sequentially numbered stainless steel tag and wire hanger unless the facility has all traps already

numbered.

We will document trap location, application, steam pressure, manufacturer, model and technology. Pipe size and trap size,

connection type, inlet and outlet temperature and comments about existing installation are also documented.

We will test operational status of trap using ultrasound and temperature differential measurements.

We will provide complete report noting the entire results of survey, including synopsis of results (traps tested, leaking, plugged,

not in service, etc.)

SCOPE OF WORKReturn on Investment Calculation

This includes the cost of the survey, replacement steam traps for those traps found to be deficient and estimated

labor to install the replacement traps. These costs are then compared to the losses associated with the traps found

to be failed closed, leaking in multiple stages, or failed open. Trap application problems and specific

recommendations for trap and trap station improvements are also included.

A detailed formal report outlining the findings and recommendations, as well as a full inventory of the steam traps

is the final delivery of the steam trap survey. We prefer to present the final report in person and it includes all of

the items above, along with a formal repair quote in both a paper and electronic format.

SCOPE OF WORKSTEAM TRAP INSTALLATION

For those who desire a turn-key solution, we will make use of our partners to perform steam trap installation

performed by fully experienced technicians. By utilizing our experienced specialists you avoid post installation

problems. Additionally, experienced installation teams ensure minimized downtime that allows you to maximize your

resources by not taking valuable maintenance or operational personnel away from your core operations.
