Spirax Sarcois a leading global provider of steam system solutions, specializing in industrial steam and condensate management for more than 100 years. Its products are known for their high efficiency, reliability and energy saving, and are widely used in the energy, chemical, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, textile, paper and other industries. The following is a detailed analysis of Spirax Sarco's core product range:


I. Steam traps (Steam Traps)

Traps are central components of steam systems, designed to automatically discharge condensate and stop steam leakage. Spirax Sarco offers a wide range of traps to meet the needs of different operating conditions:

  1. Thermodynamic Traps
    • TD Series : Simple structure, corrosion resistance, suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature environments, such as steam mains and process equipment.
    • TTS Series : With temperature-sensitive elements to regulate discharge temperature and reduce energy waste.
  2. Thermostatic Traps
    • ST Series : Condensate discharge controlled by temperature difference, suitable for low pressure systems and tracer lines.
    • SMC Series : Integrated Membrane Box Technology for fast response times and for fluctuating load scenarios.
  3. Mechanical Traps
    • FT Series Float Traps : Utilizes a float that rises and falls with the liquid level to control the valve, efficiently removing condensate and suitable for high flow systems.
    • GT Series Inverted Bucket Traps : Water hammer resistant design for high back pressure conditions such as steam mains and heat exchangers.

Second, control valves and regulating valves (Control Valves)

Control valves from Spirax Sarco are used to precisely regulate the flow, pressure and temperature of steam, condensate or compressed air:

  1. Pneumatic Control Valves (Pneumatic Control Valves)
    • EP Series : Modular design supports multiple actuators and positioners for complex process control.
    • CV Series : High-precision regulation for closed-loop control of steam pressure and temperature.
  2. Self-Acting Valves
    • DP Series : No external power is required, it is regulated by the medium's own pressure and is suitable for simple circuits.
    • T Series Temperature Control Valves : Automatically adjusts steam flow by sensing temperature changes through the temperature packet.

Third, the pressure reducing valve and pressure control (Pressure Control)

  1. Pressure Reducing Valves for Steam
    • PRV Series : Direct-acting pressure reducing valve, compact and suitable for low-pressure drop scenarios.
    • DP Series : Pilot-operated pressure reducing valves that can withstand high differential pressures with high stability for boilers and sub-cylinders.
  2. Safety Valves
    • SV Series : Conforms to international safety standards for overpressure protection against system overload.

IV. Condensate Recovery System (Condensate Recovery)

  1. Condensate Recovery Pumps (Condensate Pumps)
    • CTP Series : Combination of mechanical and electric pumps, high temperature resistant design for long distance condensate transfer.
    • PAC Series : Integrate automatic control functions to optimize condensate recovery efficiency.
  2. Flash Vessels
    • Separates secondary steam from high-pressure condensate to reuse energy and reduce boiler make-up water.

V. Vapor Filtration and Separation Equipment

  1. Steam Filters
    • SF Series : Multi-layer stainless steel screen to remove pipeline impurities and protect downstream equipment.
  2. Steam Separators
    • SS Series : Centrifugal separation technology to reduce moisture in wet steam and improve heat transfer efficiency.

VI. Thermal system solutions

  1. Steam Accumulators
    • Balances steam load fluctuations, stabilizes system pressure, and reduces the number of boiler starts and stops.
  2. Heat Exchanger Control Packages (Heat Exchanger Packages)
    • Integrated traps, control valves and sensors to optimize heat transfer efficiency.

VII. Intelligent and Internet of Things (IoT) Solutions

  1. Steam System Monitoring Platform (Steam Intelligence)
    • Spirax EasiHeat™ : Monitor steam flow, pressure and energy consumption in the cloud and provide recommendations for energy efficiency optimization.
  2. Wireless Sensors
    • Real-time collection of trap status and steam leakage data reduces maintenance costs.

VIII. Supporting products and services

  1. Steam pipe fittings
    • Flanges, fittings, expansion joints, check valves, etc. ensure system sealing and stability.
  2. Engineering Services
    • Full life cycle support with system design, installation and commissioning, regular maintenance and energy saving audits.

Technical Advantages and Industry Applications

  • high efficiency and energy saving : Reduce fuel consumption 10%-30% through condensate recovery and flash steam utilization.
  • dependability : Long product life, adapted to harsh working conditions (high temperature, high pressure, corrosive media).
  • Global Certification : Conforms to ASME, PED, ISO and other standards, and is suitable for use in demanding fields such as pharmaceuticals and nuclear power.
