A plant housing numerous steam traps often faces challenges with accessibility, relying on manual inspections involving skilled labour to balance cost and risk. Traditional annual inspections lead to high failure costs due to the complex behaviour of steam traps. LOCTITE Pulse Smart Steam Traps revolutionise this by offering continuous monitoring, early detection of failures and timely repairs, thereby minimising costs and consequences. LOCTITE Pulse Smart Steam Traps distinguish irregularities from operational variations thanks to AI and pattern recognition, ensuring ongoing asset monitoring. Beyond efficiency, the solution emphasises sustainability. For example, with 100 Smart Steam Trap sensors installed, we estimate a reduction of up to 560 tons of emissions per year of CO2, equivalent to planting a whopping 20,000 trees, and €450,000 saved through reduced steam loss.
LOCTITE Pulse helps improve energy efficiency by providing timely alerts on potential issues, reducing unplanned downtime and optimising maintenance schedules. This leads to overall energy savings and increased operational efficiency.
Yes, the solution is approved for ATEX Zones. The sensors and the DAU, which are located next to the monitored steam trap, are approved for ATEX Zone 1. The Gateway is certified for ATEX Zone 2. Further details of the ATEX certification and other technical specifications can be found on the Smart Steam Trap product description sheet (PDS).
The Smart Steam Trap System can be used for all mechanical, thermodynamic and thermostatic steam trap types. Further technical specifications can be found on the Smart Steam Trap product description sheet (PDS).
The implementation of LOCTITE Pulse Smart Steam Traps is straightforward and they can be retrofitted. Inlet and outlet sensors, along with a data acquisition unit (DAU), are easily attached to the pipework surrounding the steam trap. The gateway device wirelessly collects raw data from the DAUs, transmitting it via the mobile network.
LOCTITE Pulse Smart Flange Leak Detection is an easy-to-use smart maintenance solution that can detect early leakages and may predict critical incidents. You can monitor critical assets in a web-based app and receive notifications when irregularities have been measured. This enables operators to react in a timely manner and decrease the risks leaks worsening, thereby minimising the risk of extensive damage, production downtime and associated costs.
The sensors can detect a wide range of liquid hydrocarbons. A detailed list of media can be found on the Smart Flange product description sheet (PDS).
The temperature limitations of the sensor are defined by a temperature resistance of up to 80°C (176°F) continuously.
Yes, LOCTITE Pulse Smart Flange holds an ATEX certification for ATEX Zone 2. Further details on the ATEX classification can be found on the Smart Flange product description sheet (PDS).
Smart Flange sensors are 300 mm & 500 mm, covering flange sizes DN 20 to DN 300.
LOCTITE Pulse Smart Flange sensors will detect liquid hydrocarbons with as little as 1 ml of fluid and are sensitive to the first drips.
LOCTITE Pulse is versatile and applicable to various critical rotating equipment, including electric motors, pumps, compressors, fans, gear drives, generators and more.
Early detection of asset failure allows for reduced unplanned downtime, wireless monitoring reduces manual inspection efforts, maintenance can be planned more effectively, and the robust design allows for indoor and outdoor use.
LOCTITE Pulse adopts a 6-in-1 approach, monitoring 3D vibration, acoustic emissions, magnetic flux, true RPM, temperature and humidity simultaneously. This comprehensive monitoring ensures early detection and effective equipment management. The use of AI allows confidence in the accuracy of failure predictions and recommendations. All of these parameters help build a clear picture of the status of the equipment, which is reflected in its "remaining useful life" score.
