Steam Trap Survey For: ABC Corporation Anywhere, MI 7/0/07 Prepared by: Armstrong International 8 Maple Street Three Rivers, MI 49093-4375 United States
General Summary The General Summary reviews the Scope of Work, final reports, and steam losses associated with this steam trap survey.
Armstrong International Three Rivers 8 Maple Street Three Rivers, MI : 7/0/07 To: ABC Corporation Anywhere, MI Re: Steam Trap Survey Between 9//05 and 9//05 Armstrong International Three Rivers conducted a steam trap survey at your facility. 4 in service traps were tested. All failed or defective traps were tagged with a red and white tag for ease in field identification. The field investigation and computer analysis reveals that 32.% of the in-service traps were found to be defective. The failed traps wasting steam resulted in an estimated annualized loss of 4,535,0 lb of steam and a corresponding monetary loss of 4,875 USD. In addition to the traps wasting steam, 2 failed in plugged and/or flooded conditions. These traps are not losing steam, but rather causing a loss of heat, water hammer, corrosion and possibly freezing damage to heat transfer equipment. The following is a breakdown of defective traps as a percentage of the total in-service traps: Blow Thru 28.3% Leaking 0.0% Plugged 4.3% Rapid Cycling 0.0% Flooded 0.0% Total 32.% Refer to the defective trap report for a complete listing of all failed traps. We thank you for the opportunity to assist in your energy conservation efforts and steam maintenance program.

STEAM TRAP SURVEY SCPE F WRK & TECNICAL SPECIFICATINS AT TE JB SITE. All steam traps are located, identified, and tagged with a stainless steel or aluminum tag and clip. 2. Each trap is tested to determine its operating condition. The method used shall include ultrasonic listening and visual inspection where possible (the customer should supply a means to reach traps that are difficult to access, e.g. ladders, forklifts, etc.). 3. A temporary red and white paper tag is attached to each FAILED trap in addition to the stainless steel or aluminum tag. 4. Note is made of specific problems. Some examples are: water hammer, poor or improper insulation, steam leaks in piping or valves, improper installation of traps, and other steam related problems. 5. n-the-job-training is provided to those plant personnel who are helping our Technicians with the survey. ne plant maintenance person should accompany each survey team..

Recommended Steam Trap Testing Procedures Armstrong International, Inc.
STEAM TRAP TESTING A combination of testing methods is used in accurately predicting the operating condition of a trap. We recommend the use of an ultrasonic listening device with visual observation when possible. When an atmospheric discharge is not possible, the use of the ultrasonic listening device can be used to determine the operating condition of the steam trap. Temperature measurement cannot show the operating condition of the trap. It is merely a sign of corresponding saturation steam pressure upstream of the trap and pressure on the condensate return system downstream of the trap. Determining the amount of back pressure in the condensate system helps to quantify the amount of live steam lost through a failed trap. The ultrasonic listening device gives a fairly clear understanding of how the trap is operating. A normally operating inverted bucket trap emits a definite burst of sound when the bucket sinks and opens the trap valve, thereby discharging condensate until entering steam floats the bucket and closes the valve. In the presence of extremely low loads, the bucket is heard as a continuous clattering sound. This is sometimes called a dribbling trap. This is still a normal operating steam trap with no steam loss. This could also be a sign of an oversized trap, therefore requiring a smaller or restrictive orifice. The normal operating sounds of a float and thermostatic trap are difficult to distinguish as it is a constant flow device with no cycle rate. By shutting off the inlet valve, letting condensate collect, and then releasing a large condensate load to the trap, the trap is heard opening and then modulating down the steady state flow. The thermostatic air vent in a float and thermostatic trap often opens rather infrequently to release air, making its working condition difficult to determine. A thermostatic steam trap has a cycle, but it is much more gentle in nature than the inverted bucket or disc trap. A sub cooling thermostatic steam trap is similar in operation to the float trap. It may have either a bellows or a bimetallic spring as the actuation device, opening and closing the trap according to the set temperature differential.
STEAM TRAP TESTING (Continued) A final determination of the operation of a steam trap is visual. This test can only be done if there is an atmospheric discharge or test valve. If there is a test valve after the trap, close off the valve to condensate return and open the test valve to the atmosphere. The steam trap will now act as an atmospheric discharge trap. If there is high back pressure in the condensate return system, some generic types of steam traps operate differently when discharging to the atmosphere than to the condensate return system. Therefore it is important to know how the different generic types of traps operate under varying conditions. pening a test valve ahead of the trap can also determine if the trap is backing up condensate. The actual piping arrangement with the application can give some insight as to freezing problems, formation of vacuum, back pressure and poor piping configurations that may affect the operation of the trap. Use a systems approach when testing steam traps. There are times when, after further investigation, what seems to be a defective trap is actually a piping or application problem.

ARMSTRNG TERETICAL STEAM LSS CALCULATINS (IP UNITS) The basic formulas used to estimate the live steam loss of defective traps are as follows: MASNEILAN S FRMULA ( o 2. )( C V) P( Pi + P ) = Blow Through Where: C V = Flow Coefficient P = P i P o P i = Inlet Pressure (psia) P o = utlet Pressure (psia) NAPIER S FRMULA ( 5. 43)( Pi )( A0) Where: A 0 = Area of rifice These are general formulas used in determining steam loss through and orifice. Based on data compiled in the field as well as actual test data from our lab in Michigan, certain changes have been made to these formulas. In addition to inlet pressure, back pressure, and orifice size, piping configurations, severity of feailure, and condensate load influence the quantity of steam loss through a trap. Consequently, service and very light condensate loads as found in drip and tracer service and the much higher condensate loads associated with coil and process applications. Back pressure, service time and modulating conditions are incorporated in the calculations. Naturally, some information such as how many months a trap operates per year is determined by data supplied by plant personnel.
