Fluid control valves - Import export

Non-rotating asset components seldom receive the routine surveillance they need Hydraulic systems represent another way industry converts electricity to mechanical energy. A pump, normally powered by an electric motor, moves hydraulic fluid through a system. The system is typically made up of a reservoir to hold the hydraulic fluid, high pressure lines to carry the fluid, control valves that ensure the fluid is sent where needed, relief valves for safety, and cylinders to produce mechanical energy. The pump and motor receive attention while the balance of the system is run-to-failure. Ultrasound testing could change this lackadaisical approach; especially considering its versatility, ease of use, and applicability to most hydraulic defects. External and Internal Leaks External leaks can often be found by visual inspection. Some external leaks, like a ruptured hose or fitting, are easy to spot. Simply follow the trail of spilled oil. Others are not so obvious.

TRAPChecker is an ultrasound solution designed to assess the condition of steam traps and valves. Focused Inefficient steam systems waste energy and impact product quality. TRAPChecker is an ultrasound solution focused on finding failed steam traps. It works on every style of trap and failure mode. Simple TRAPChecker is so easy to use. Simply open the box, connect the sensor, and hear the difference between a good and bad steam trap. Its vibrant colour display offers repeatable, accurate, digital measurements. Affordable As much as 40% of your steam traps could be operating in a failed state. The low entry cost of TRAPChecker and the high cost of energy, could see your investment recovered the first time you use it. The TRAPChecker detects internal turbulence by defective steam traps and passing valves. Designed to work with SDT’s RS2 Needle Contact Sensor.
