The SDT270 ultrasound detector provides greater insight into the health of your assets. It helps you control energy costs, predict failures, improve product quality and increase overall production uptime. With your SDT ultrasound solution, you have the ability to predict and prevent failures before they occur. Stop relying on the reactive, fire-fighting maintenance measures of the past and start a proactive approach.
As hot steam travels from your boiler to the point of use, some cooling is inevitable. The result is condensate and gases. The job of the steam trap is to isolate and remove these impurities from the live steam. Steam traps that function properly help maintain purity and efficiency throughout the system.
The best way to test steam trap function is to listen to them with an ultrasound solution. With ultrasonic detection you’re able to hear:
- The opening and closing of your steam trap
- Silence if the steam trap is stuck in the closed position
- Turbulent flow if the steam trap is stuck in the open position
- Mechanical clattering if the steam trap’s valve is fluttering open and shut
