SteamEco venturi steam traps drain condensate continuously and completely — while keeping live steam where it belongs: inside your system. Proven in 1,000+ installations across China's largest petrochemical and refining complexes.
Mechanical steam traps rely on buckets, floats and levers. As those parts wear, they jam open — and your live steam escapes straight into the condensate line.
Leaked by a single failed DN25 medium-pressure trap. Over a 7,000-hour operating year, that is 538 tonnes of steam — roughly USD 21,000 — gone from one device.
Float and inverted-bucket traps typically need replacement within 1–2 years under real plant conditions, plus shutdowns for inspection and maintenance.
Leaking steam floods condensate lines, destabilises back-pressure and slows heat transfer — slower heat-up, erratic temperature control, water hammer risk.
SteamEco uses a precisely engineered venturi nozzle instead of mechanical parts. Flash steam generated in the expansion section creates back-pressure that seals the throat — condensate passes, steam stays put.

For heat exchangers, evaporators and distillation reboilers with heavy, stable condensate loads. Multi-orifice internals are easily resized when the process is debottlenecked.

Venturi + bimetallic combined design for saturated and superheated steam distribution lines. Zero steam leakage, on-line adjustable, filter easy to service.

Flow capacity adjustable on-line for kettles and batch heaters with wide load swings. Spindle geometry preserves the venturi characteristic. Leakage below 0.1%.
Our customers include super-large state-owned refineries, mega refining-chemical complexes and leading private chemical groups. Under confidentiality agreements we do not publish their names — reference letters and site visits can be arranged for serious buyers.
264 SteamEco traps supplied as sole-source. Visible steam plumes across the site eliminated entirely.
594 venturi traps on a grass-root project, commissioned at the end of 2024 and running leak-free since day one.
Steam consumption per tonne of product down 21% after SteamEco replaced an imported trap on heat exchanger T1206.
