Venturi trap saves lost steam energy
It is calculated that British industry wastes £3bn a year in energy costs purely through steam loss caused by mechanical steam traps leaking precious steam when open or backing up condensate. Now Gardner Energy Management has launched a new steam trap, the GEM Quartz Trap Set.
The culmination of a partnership with a major petroleum company, the GEM Quartz Trap Set has been specifically developed for mass trace heating and low-pressure drip.
The Quartz Trap Set is a permanent solution to steam trace-trapping problems. Instead of using a valve mechanism to close off steam for maximum energy and water conservation, the new trap uses a patented venturi orifice design to effectively drain condensate from the steam system. Easy to install and clean, the Quartz Trap Set operates at up to 50bar pressure.
GEM's steam traps are available in a range of sizes and are available with optional filter insert where applicable. Easily and quickly fitted, GEM's steam traps have no moving parts to fail and provide a permanent solution to steam trapping and condensate return problems.
