Portable ultrasonic leak detector for steam trap valve detection

Portable ultrasonic leak detector for steam trap valve, ULTRAPROE series ultrasonic detector from UESYSTEMS company in the United States, can detect the leakage, blockage, and operating status of steam trap valves, estimate steam costs through DMS software or leakage APP, and view the waveform of valve ultrasonic waves through waveform software. It can help customers save steam energy, improve system efficiency, reduce water hammer risk, and enhance safety. Explosion proof UP2000 and UP9000IS are optional

Leakage or failure of steam traps can lead to serious energy waste.

The leakage or failure of steam trap valves can have a significant potential impact on product quality, system safety, and energy consumption.UE SystemsThe ultrasonic testing technology is applicable to all types of steam trap valves, including inverted bucket type, thermal static type, thermal dynamic type, floating ball thermal static type, and check valve.

Usually, ultrasonic drain valve testing mainly focuses on two aspects:

Internal leakage of drain valve:Partial leakage and opening/Closed state

Adjustment status of drain valve:Whether the working status and adjustment are consistent with its specifications?

UltraprobeThe series of ultrasonic detectors can quickly and conveniently detect the working status of running steam traps.

Why do we need to test steam traps?

Damaged steam traps can have serious consequences:

• Security issues:Water hammer can cause serious damage to equipment and even casualties!

• Reduce production efficiency:We cannot guarantee the appropriate operating temperature of the system.

• Aging of condensate reflux pipeline:Corrosion caused by water in the pipeline

• Generate unnecessary costs:Even if only a small part of the factory's drain valves leak, it can cause huge energy losses.

Therefore,UE SYSTEMSIt is recommended that users regularly inspect the factory steam trap valves using a fixed testing path to reduce costs, improve efficiency, and ensure smooth processes.

The principle of ultrasonic technology applied to the detection of steam trap valves

According to the drainage action of steam traps, they can be divided into two types: continuous and intermittent. By receiving the ultrasonic signal pattern and intensity generated by the operation of the drain valve through the instrument, the operating status of the drain valve can be determined.UE SystemsofUltraprobeThe series of instruments can help inspectors check the operation of steam traps in any environment.

Users can choose to useUltraprobeThe most basic analog instruments in the series can also choose advanced digital instruments (such asUP15000Equipped with a built-in non-contact temperature sensor that can take photos, record audio, and view waveforms, it can comprehensively analyze the operating status of steam traps.

Testing method for steam trap valve

The type of steam trap valve is different, and the detection method will also be different. Therefore, before testing the drain valve, it is necessary to first understand the situation of the steam system where the drain valve is located, the drainage method and basic principles of the drain valve.

Determine if the steam trap is leaking or blocked:

The detection frequency of the instrument is set to25kHzFor instruments that cannot be tuned, no setting is required. Use a contact probe to detect the upstream side of the steam trap, adjust the detection sensitivity until the headphones hear clear sound quality.

Then, check the downstream side of the steam trap valve to observe the intensity of the instrument's ultrasonic signal and the pattern of sound. The intermittent drainage drain valve allows headphones to receive a rhythmic sound pattern of "close drain close". If a continuous sound of airflow is received, it indicates that the drain valve is leaking, causing continuous energy waste. If the sound level is very low (compared to other drain valves under the same operating conditions), it indicates that the drain valve is closed, blocked, or not in operation.

Detecting steam traps through ultrasonic technology is very simple and fast. Operators can directly determine whether they are in the correct state based on the sound quality mode and signal strength of the received sound.
