Abstract
A method of monitoring steam traps to identify which steam traps are malfunctioning is described and claimed. The method involves surveying the building to locate all the steam traps, identifying where to place the sensors to monitor the steam traps of interest, placing the sensors in appropriate locations, collecting the signals from each sensor in a collection point, monitoring the collected signals to identify which steam traps are not operating as desired and taking corrective action regarding those steam traps that are not operating as desired. The method enables the operator of the industrial water system using steam traps to be able to reduce the cost of wasted energy in lost steam.
