Steam trap made from stainless steel, with integral spiral wound gasket, suitable for fitting to a universal (“Swivel”) connector. The inverted bucket steam trap is very robust, unaffected by corrosion and has an excellent ability to handle dirt. The orifice, which is located in the upper part of the body, is controlled by the vertical movement of the inverted bucket. Air is vented through the small hole in the top of the inverted bucket.
The LED bargraph display MB 1 is used in conjunction with level switch NRS 2-5.. and level controller NRR 2-50 as actual value indicator, and applied for instance in steam boilers and (pressurized) hot-water installations as second water level indicator. The LED bargraph display can be combined with all measuring sensors that have an analogue output 4-20 mA. The LED bargraph display MB 1 replaces the indicating unit URA 2-e.
The level switch NRS 1-50 is used in conjunction with level electrode NRG 1...-.. to limit the water level in steam boilers and (pressurised) hot-water plants. Water level limiters switch off the heating when the water level falls below the set minimum level (low water).
The level electrodes NRG 1...-51 are used in conjunction with level switch NRS 1-51 as high level alarm for steam boiler plants and (pressurized) hot water installations. A high level alarm prevents the water level from exceeding the preset max. water level (HW) and for this purpose switches off e. g. the feedwater supply.
Thermostatic steam trap with corrosion-resistant thermostatic element (Duo stainless steel bimetallic regulator, externally adjustable) unaffected by waterhammer. With internal Y-type strainer, integrated non-return valve and asbestos-free cover gasket (graphite). Installation in any position. The default factory setting allows the steam trap to discharge condensate with virtually no banking-up. For more undercooling the settings of the installed, depressurized steam trap can be modified externally.
For the installation of low-level limiters of “high-integrity design” in measuring pots mounted outside of the boiler, it is imperative that the periodic purging of the connecting lines to the boiler be monitored properly. To achieve this, the connecting lines are shut off one after the other at defined intervals and the measuring pot is drained.
Safety, reliability, availability and economy have always enjoyed top priority in boiler operation. To an increasing extent, another aspect is being added for the plant operators: process automation and visualization. To meet these stringent requirements, GESTRA has – for more than five decades now – been working exclusively with electrode systems that are low in maintenance and wear; in contrast to other systems, they function entirely without moving parts, which leads to high service lifetimes and very low failure rates. By now, these GESTRA electrode systems are being applied in many different areas of the energy supply centre.
NRG 1x-60 level electrodes are used in conjunction with the URS 60 / URS 61 control unit as water level limiters for pressurised steam and hot-water plants. ■ Water level limiters switch off the heating when the water drops below the set minimum level (LW). ■ Visualisation and operation take place via the URB 60 or SPECTORcontrol operating unit.
Le convertisseur universel URW 60 convertit les signaux 4-20 mA analogiques d'une électrode de niveau raccordée en télégrammes bus CAN. Les données sont transmises selon le protocole CANopen sur la base d'un bus CAN selon ISO 11898. Le contrôle du fonctionnement et le diagnostic des défauts peuvent être réalisés sur l'appareil de commande et de visualisation URB 60.
The level electrode NRG 16-50 S is used in conjunction with level switch NRS 1-50 (de-energizing delay: 15 seconds) as water-level limiter for steam boilers and (pressurized) hot-water installations on board of seagoing vessels, mobile offshore platforms or river boats. Water level limiters switch off the heating when the water level falls below the set minimum level (low water).
