Steam Trap Monitoring System
A single failed steam trap can waste steam around the clock for months before anyone notices. Wireless sensors watch every trap continuously and tell you exactly which ones are leaking, blocked or cold, so you fix the right traps first.
Stop paying for steam you never use
Find leaking traps fast and cut the fuel your boilers burn to make steam that escapes into the condensate line.
Replace periodic manual surveys with continuous, plant-wide health data that's always up to date.
Send technicians straight to the failed traps, ranked by priority, instead of checking every trap by hand.
Less wasted steam means less fuel burned and lower emissions from your boiler house.
Every common trap failure, caught early
Each failure leaves its own temperature signature. The system learns each trap's normal pattern and flags it when that pattern changes.
Live steam passes straight into the condensate line, wasting energy and pressurising the return system.
Dirt or scale stops the trap from opening, so condensate backs up and heating performance drops.
Condensate isn't removed fast enough, which can cause water hammer and damage pipes and equipment.
The trap or its line has gone cold. It may be isolated, or the line upstream has a problem.
Designed for real steam networks
Works across thermodynamic, mechanical and thermostatic traps on mains, tracing and process lines.
Clamp-on sensors install without cutting pipes, running cables or stopping steam.
A dedicated high-temperature sensor designed for the heat of steam pipework.
Temperature analytics tell leaking, blocked, flooded and cold traps apart, not just 'hot' or 'cold'.
Data reaches your SCADA or BMS over Modbus RS485, or goes through a gateway to cloud dashboards.
Traps are ranked by status and estimated loss, so maintenance teams know what to fix first.
From trap to dashboard in four steps
A sensor is clamped onto the pipework at each trap you want to watch.
It measures the temperature profile continuously and transmits it wirelessly.
The BBC969-485RC or an IoT gateway collects readings from every sensor in range.
Trap status, trends and alerts reach your SCADA, BMS or the cloud dashboard.
