SMART SVT™ Operation Flash steam occurs naturally
after a trap due to the pressure drop At 140 PSI, flash steam = 18%. Density (ρcondensate @ 140psi) = 55 lb/ft
3
Density (ρsteam @ 140psi) = 0.35 lb/ft3
Steam is 155 times less dense (0.6%) as condensate
Steam restriction by means of: The flash steam expansion in
Venturi creates back pressure Large change in density results in
minimal steam flow

Simple Comparison
Mechanical steam trap
Can fail open = expensive steam loss
Moving parts = maintenance
Moving parts = spare parts inventory
Water hammer = damage
Lifespan = 3 - 5 years
Warranty = 1 year
SMART Venturi Steam Trap
Cannot fail open = no steam loss
No moving parts = minimal maintenance
No moving parts = no spare parts
No Water hammer = no damage
Lifespan = 20 - 30 years
Warranty = 20 years7

Venturi Steam Trap – Functional Laboratory Study done for NICOR GAS and SOCAL GAS, Emerging Technology Programs Lead Study.
Prepared by Gas Technology Institute (“GTI”)
The objective of the functional testing was to:1) Validate venturi steam traps’ performance at different pressures2) Validate venturi steam traps’ performance at different condensate loads
Results:The laboratory study captured ambient temperature and pressure, steam supply temperature and pressure, and calorimeter initial temperature, final temperature, initial weight, and final weight data. These parameters were collected for 134 test trials.
Experimental data have demonstrated the ability of venturi orifice steam traps to discharge varying condensate loads safely across a range of steam pressures, in line with industry requirements. Even when testing outside the specified operational range of the venturi orifice traps, venturi traps were found to operate effectively, discharging condensate with measured steam loss values comparable to mechanical steam traps, within experimental error.
BET Smart Steam Tarps were tested at this study
