Steam Trap Manufacturers & Suppliers

Industrial steam traps are machines with two main functions: to trap air in process environments and to provide the conditions for efficient operation of process equipment. They are used in various industries, including food processing, pharmaceuticals, metallurgy, and power generation. They serve different purposes depending on the application: to reduce condensate loss or fouling of equipment, to prevent heat transfer problems, or to keep the environment clean. Industrial steam traps can be single-purpose devices that perform one function well, or they can serve several functions and can be designed for either continuous or intermittent use. One key factor determining the effectiveness of an industrial steam trap is its ability to maintain a constant temperature throughout the entire system. The heat exchanger is typically feet long and made of steel or cast iron. It has walls with openings for pipes and hoses, which allow steam from the boiler to enter. There should also be a means of cooling the heat exchanger if it overheats. A system controller (SC) usually controls industrial steam traps that monitor conditions and issues commands to operate them when necessary.

Industrial steam traps are used in large industrial facilities to prevent the build-up of excess steam. If a large amount of steam is present, it can cause serious problems such as damage to nearby equipment and people. Industrial steam traps are usually installed near boilers or heaters to prevent excessive steam from entering the building. Once there is too much steam, it will condense into water, which can then be discharged through a pipe connected to the building's drainage system. Most industrial steam traps are made from metal and are about half a meter long. They consist of a sensor that detects the presence of steam and a collection chamber that holds the condensed water. The collection chamber is attached to a pipe drains excess water from the building. The trap can also be used for other purposes, such as cooling an area or preventing ice build-up.
