How do you manage condensate with steam traps?
When steam flows through pipes, as it cools down condensate forms.
Condensate prevents the optimum transfer of heat and can also lead to pipe erosion and waterhammer. To enable your steam systems to work efficiently, you should install steam traps to discharge condensate that builds up.
The performance of effective condensate removal using steam traps has an influence on:
System reliability
System performance
Availability of steam
Operational efficiency
Cost management
Flexible steam traps for different requirements
For steam system operators, the cost of energy production is a key driver. Durable steam traps that work without loss of steam will help to keep these costs as low as possible.
GESTRA's steam traps are energy efficient and reliable. They satisfy the most demanding quality requirements, and they minimise maintenance time and are easy to use.
