Blue Energy Technologies, official distributor for Delta venturi steam traps in the United States, announced the release of a steam trap product line to the North American market.
Inefficient steam systems can dramatically reduce productivity and profit. For example, a failed steam trap with a 3/32" orifice operating at 100 psi can lose almost 30 pounds of steams hourly, leading to a loss of over $2,000 a year from each defective trap. According the U.S. Department of Energy in steam systems that have not been maintained for 3 to 5 years, between 15% - 30% of the installed steam traps may have failed, thus allowing live steam to escape into the condensate return system.
Delta DSV steam traps are innovative and utilize Venturi technology to collect condensate and block steam. Installing Delta traps will permanently stop inefficiencies and will operate properly even in varying load conditions. Unlike conventional steam traps, Delta steam traps have no moving parts which can wear out and fail. All Delta steam traps are built from stainless steel construction, and come with a 10-year mechanical and performance guarantee to ensure the trap will work properly, providing benefits to manufacturing plants for an extended period of time. Delta DSV traps have been found to reduce energy bills by up to 20%, reduce chemical treatment, and CO2 emissions dramatically.
