Steam traps that are partially or fully blocked will lead to the incomplete removal of condensate from distribution systems, heat exchanges, or process applications.
They can also lead to system flooding, which will contribute to the distribution of poor-quality steam.
This could result in the inefficient transfer of the latent heat energy of steam or create hazardous conditions leading to water hammer.
Since both can impact system safety and efficiency, it is considered good practice to monitor your steam traps to ensure better system performance.
Using our VK steam trap monitoring solution will allow you to proactively identify steam trap problems keeping your system up-and-running, efficient, and safe.
