PROCESS EQUIPMENT Optimized energy efficiency in steam networks


MIYAWAKI sets new standards with System Assessment, Manifold technology and UniversalConnector steam traps


Industrial steam and condensate systems are among the central energy infrastructures in chemical plants, refineries and the petrochemical industry. At the same time, they are complex, widely ramified and potentially loss-prone. Energy losses often occur insidiously – due to defective or incorrectly designed steam traps, inadequate drainage or inefficient condensate recirculation. MIYAWAKI, which has been a leader in the development of solutions for steam and condensate systems for almost nine decades, offers a comprehensive portfolio that goes far beyond classic steam traps. Today, Steam System Assessments, Manifold Packages and modern UniversalConnector/TwoBoltConnection Traps are of particular importance, minimizing downtimes and sustainably improving energy management.


Steam System Assessment – the basis of every efficiency strategy Modern energy management does not begin with the replacement of individual components, but with a system-wide analysis. MIYAWAKI offers a professional Steam Trap Assessment Service that identifies and prioritizes power losses, leaks, mis designs and functional problems throughout the steam and condensate system.


Significant savings can be achieved through such comprehensive system assessments. The MIYAWAKI Product Catalog highlights that optimized discharge and return systems are essential to reducing non-process losses and noticeably increasing the energy efficiency of a plant.


Benefits of the Steam System Assessment: • Measurably lower steam consumption


• Reduced fuel and operating costs • More stable processes and safer start-up conditions • Significantly reduced CO₂ emissions


The assessment process thus forms the basis for any further optimization measure – from improving the steam trap population to structural modernizations such as manifold packages or Universal Connector systems.


Manifold systems – compact efficiency and structural overview


In plants with numerous tracing lines or decentralized condensate points, condensate manifold packages play a central role. They bundle several drainage points in a compact, clear unit. This reduces cable lengths, minimizes leakage risks and significantly simplifies maintenance processes.


Manifold packages are also ideal for combination with UniversalConnectorTraps. The modular design allows:


• a clear structuring of the trap population • Faster localization of faults • Short maintenance times without major intervention • Auditable documentation and process reliability


Especially in the petrochemical industry, where hundreds of tracing lines are operated in parallel, Manifold systems are a decisive step towards reducing complexity and energy losses.
