Steam Traps TRIZ Cases
- Oil Separator Float Structure for Pressure-Stable Oil Return
A welded hollow float keeps its seam endpoint above the oil surface to block oil ingress and preserve compressor oil return under pressure changes.
- Fuel Cell Liquid Separator With Backflow Barriers for Water Removal
Captures water from fuel cell flow channels and routes it through a separate passage with backflow barriers to prevent freezing and re-ingestion.
- Fuel Cell Anode Gas Conditioning With a Top-Mounted Drain Valve
A top-mounted drain valve lets fuel cell anode gas systems purge water and gas together while avoiding separator ice that can freeze shut.
- Steam Trap Diversion Valve for Condensate Quality Separation
Sensors detect condensate conductivity and temperature to divert impure flow, protect recovery lines, and cut water and heating losses.
- Condensate Drainage Assembly for Orientation-Independent Electronics Cooling
A heat-conducting condensation surface and guided drain paths move moisture away from cooled electronics to prevent corrosion and short circuits.
- Condensate Drain Sound Coupling for Leakage and Blockage Detection
Structure-borne sound and temperature sensing through a coupling assembly helps condensate drains detect leakage and blockage with less interference.
- Condensate Drain Housing for Cooled Electronics Orientation Independence
A heat-conducting condensation surface and separated drain paths keep condensate off cooled electronics in any installation orientation.
- Float-Actuated Condensate Drain for Overpressure Discharge
A buoyancy-driven float drain collects condensate and opens automatically under pressure difference, preventing backflow and leakage.
- Steam Trap Monitoring via Feature Extraction and Centralized Detection
Key features are extracted from steam trap sensor data and sent to a central server, cutting bandwidth while improving facility-wide failure detection.
- Dual-Venturi Steam Trap for Flash Steam Loss Reduction
Staged pressure drops across two venturi orifices drain condensate while restricting live and flash steam to cut energy loss and improve recovery.
- Steam Trap Venturi Cartridge Access Without Rating Limits
A low-pressure discharge chamber lets the venturi nozzle cartridge be replaced in line without reducing steam trap pressure rating.
- Venturi Steam Trap Drainage Adjustment and Strainer Support
A rotatable vent-height mechanism adjusts condensate discharge as steam conditions change, while a supported strainer improves rigidity and replacement.
- Boiler Feed Tank Heat Recovery for Make-Up Water Preheating
Low-pressure steam in the feed tank is captured by an internal heat exchanger to preheat make-up water, cutting waste heat loss and boiler energy use.
- Rankine Cycle Gas Extraction Using Pressure-Temperature Detection
Pressure and temperature checks at rest detect trapped air in a Rankine cycle and trigger extraction to preserve yield and fluid purity.
- Aseptic Steam Trap Annular Filtration Against Nozzle Clogging
An annular gap upstream of the seat pre-filters condensate, blocks particle trapping, and keeps aseptic drains from clogging.
- Process Sensor Housing Condensation Trap for Moisture Protection
A reduced-thickness housing region traps condensation away from sensor electronics, keeping process measurement sensors dry and stable.
- Nozzle Steam Trap Sealing for Pressure Fluctuation and Clog Resistance
Drain-water sealing and swirl flow help a nozzle steam trap handle pressure swings, cut steam loss, and resist rust and dust clogging.
- Valve Port Narrowing for Self-Cleaning Foreign Matter Discharge
A narrowed valve port creates negative pressure to suck upstream foreign matter through the valve and prevent deposition near the opening.
- Steam Trap Monitoring With One Sensor for Valve State Detection
A single vibration and temperature sensor monitors both the steam trap and shutoff valve, cutting sensor count, cost, and interference.
- Automatic Drain With Orifice Pin Bleed Channel
Orifice pin creates bleed channel to solve miniaturization bottleneck by decoupling liquid discharge from air flow control.
- Ceramic Valve Condensate Drain for Steam Systems
Magnetic actuation moves ceramic bodies to control steam drainage, reducing wear and maintenance frequency.
