Steam Trap Monitoring Optical Steam Trap Monitoring Mobile Steam Trap Testing ◗ Optical possibility for permanent monitoring of steam traps for banking-up and loss of live steam ◗ Mobile test sets VKP 10 and VKP 40 for temporary monitoring of steam traps ◗ Installation in horizontal or vertical pipework, upstream of the trap to be monitored ◗ As a low-cost solution, the VKP 10 offers a measuring transducer for detecting the sound signals emitted by steam traps. These can then be evaluated easily by observing the deflection of the level meter ◗ Both the VK 14 and 16 models are fitted with a deflector that shows you the current state of the steam trap at any time (see sketch) ◗ No moving parts in the sightglass, i.e. no risk of wear and tear. Depending on the condensate quality, the sightglasses may require cleaning occasionally ◗ Subject to the nominal pressure and pH value of the water, units for PN 16 or PN 40 are available with and without additional mica discs Steam Trap Monitoring ◗ VKP 40 is available both as a normal unit and, as the VKP 40Ex, in an ATEX-compliant version for explosion-risk areas ◗ Excellently suited for repetitive measurements on a large number of steam traps ◗ Preparation of the steam trap measurement at a PC ◗ Followed by fully automatic testing of the steam traps with an easy-to-use handheld unit, without any need for individual assessment of the recorded signals ◗ Subsequent evaluation at the PC simplifies daily organization of the work, thanks to diverse job schedules und a financial analysis Universal steam trap monitoring for live steam losses and bankingup of condensate – optical The comprehensive programme for testing and monitoring ◗ Import and export of the trap databases in Excel format Further information on GESTRA steam trap monitoring is available for download free of charge at: www.gestra.de Vaposcope VK 14/16 Any steam trap, e.g. GESTRA BK 45, MK 45, UNA 14/16, UNA 23-26, or other manufacturers 818648-00/506 G · © 2006 · GESTRA AG · Bremen Printed in Germany · Technical modifications reserv

Steam Trap Monitoring Monitoring System for Steam Traps by GESTRA Through banking-up of condensate or loss of live steam, defective steam traps cause many problems and lead to increased costs: ◗ They hinder the normal production process, and may even jeopardize product quality Permanent Trap Monitoring Configuration example 1 Conductive monitoring for live steam losses and banking-up of condensate – electrical ◗ They lead to high live-steam losses ◗ Loss of live steam increases the quantity of boiler feedwater that is required On the following pages, you will find many hints and tips to...
