Installation of the solution did not disrupt plant operations. The overall results showed a payback period of less than one year.Chris StubbsSenior Director, Corporate Facilities ServicesGenentechThe typical steam plant loses 20%1 of its energy through failed steam traps. Manual inspections mean ongoing expense and lost steam until next audit.• 15-20%1 of steam traps fail every year even in well maintained steam plants and up to 50%2 are failed in facilities without regular maintenance programs• Annual inspections identify failed traps after six months of steam has been lost on average• More frequent audits lose less steam but incur significant ongoing inspection costs • Steam leaks from failed trap for six months before detection during annual inspection• 315,000 pounds of steam lost3• $4,725 lost at $15 per 1,000 pounds steam1. http://www1.eere.energy.gov/femp/news/news_detail.html?news_id=83102. http://www1.eere.energy.gov/femp/pdfs/om_combustion.pdf3. Assumes 5/32” orifice and 100PSIThe WSTM provides continuous monitoring of steam trap health to enable immediate response when failures occur.• Non-invasive, clamps on in minutes• No shutdown of process required• Simple user interface and failure analysis• Proven industry method for steam trap failure detection• Alarms sent upon failure• Functional in very hostile environments, e.g. 25-foot pits and 500º F• Save energy costs by identifying steam trap failures when they occur• Eliminate manual steam trap inspections• Prevent pipe damage that destabilizes steam distribution systems• Improve safety characteristics of steam network 6040200 6040200 Six Month Delay with Annual InspectionFailureStartsFailureDetectedSteam Trap HealthImmediate Response with WSTMSteam Trap HealthFailureStartsFailureDetectedMar Jun Sep Dec Mar Jun Sep DecWSTM Payback with $15 per 1,000 Pounds Steam*Orifice Diameter1/8” 1/4” 3/8”25 5.1 1.3 0.650 3.1 0.8 0.3100 1.8 0.4 0.2Steam PressurePSI gaugeYears PaybackMany WSTM projects pay back in less than one year.
