UNA Series
-
UNA Series - float and thermostatic steam traps. Condensate discharge at extreme and sudden condensate flowrates.
DK Series
-
DK Series - thermodynamic steam traps used for low capacity applications such as distribution line drips and tracers.

If you demand innovative solutions for your steam systems you will be one jump ahead with Valutech. Our highly-engineered gestra steam traps are designed for easy installation and maintenance and ensure that energy is utilized in an optimum way without loss of live steam. The support services provided by our staff of application engineers range from consultancy, planning and design of steam systems through sizing and selection of steam traps to system monitoring and supervisory inspections.

Gestra pioneered "zero steam loss" membrane thermostatic traps resulting in major energy savings for steam plants. Consumers of steam all over the world have derived considerable benefits from Gestra's innovative designs for traps, valves and steam related equipment focusing on energy conservation. Valutech's steam specialists provide services to plants based on Gestra's superior technology.

We supply Energy Efficient MembraneThermostatic Steam Traps, robust Bimetallic Steam Traps, high quality Float & Thermostatic and Thermodynamic Steam Traps for all steam trapping applications ranging from:

• 2 psi to 3600 psi pressure ratings
• 2 lbs/hour to 200,000 lbs/hour condensate capacities

Gestra Steam Trap Applications

For an industrial plant to achieve optimal efficiency for a long period of time, choosing the right steam trap technology is of vital importance. To capture steam from the heating process and discharging it once it has lost all of its heat energy, a range of steam traps are needed to suit all the possible varieties of applications and requirements. Our steam traps have many practical applications and are employed where:

• steam is generated, distributed or used
• fluids flow
• energy saving is possible
• environmental protection and safety-oriented control systems are needed.

Advantages

While these three major types of standard traps cover a wide range of possible applications and plant requirements, they all share a number of common advantages:

• Easy Maintenance: can be checked, cleaned and repaired without being removed from pipework.
• Interchangeable: different trap types have standardized face-to-face dimensions, sizes and end connections making them interchangeable without any modification to pipe layout.
• Tight shut-off without loss of live steam.
• Automatic air-venting
• Unaffected by water hammer
• Production Tested: are tested under operating conditions
• Complies with recognized standards.
