Are You Having Any Problems like This?
Industries : All Industries that use Steam traps, including Petroleum, Chemical, Electric power, Pharmaceutical, Food, and Paper pulp
Equipment : Steam Trap
Problems : Difficulty of assessing conditions of steam traps located throughout the site
- Steam traps located in high places or hazardous areas are inspected infrequently or not at all. As a result, steam may continue to leak, resulting in energy loss.
- Because inspecting steam traps requires expertise and equipment, it is difficult to catch problems during normal patrol inspections.

Wide Area Monitoring System solves remote monitoring issues
Facilities that exist in a wide area can be integrated and managed through remote monitoring.
The cloud can be used to reduce time and costs, and to efficiently build monitoring systems.
Value through Problem Solving
- By applying monitoring modules to steam traps in high places or dangerous areas that are difficult to inspect, it is possible to locate previously unnoticed steam leaks and perform maintenance to stop energy loss.
- Steam trap failures can be captured remotely on a monitoring screen without the use of specialized knowledge and equipment.
Proposed System Configuration
Wireless steam trap monitoring devices are installed in the plant to detect steam leaks and blockages. Detection data is aggregated in the Wide Area Monitoring System, and the status of the steam traps is monitored. This makes it possible to quickly identify which steam traps are malfunctioning, and to replace them promptly.
