Steam consumption optimized for efficiency and safety

Precise measurement of steam consumption and quality parameters maximizes heat exchanger performance

Steam consumption measuring point and instrumentation installed

Steam consumption optimization is an ongoing challenge in utilities. As a key cost driver not only is steam acquisition and use to be closely monitored, plant managers must also aim to ensure that it is 100% dry saturated to efficiently maximize heat transfer to core processes while protecting the heat exchanger, pipework and instrumentation from wetness and pressure spikes. Endress+Hauser technologies and expertise can enable these multiple imperatives to be met.
