Gestra is Europes leading manufacturer
of steam equipment for over 100 years. The Gestra company
was founded in 1902,its aims being to optimize steam and energy
saving in industry, increase operational efficiency and effectively
deal with condensate discharge. These aims are still the companies
priorities over 100 years later.
Steam Traps Gestra produce a full range
of both ball and Thermostatic/Thermodynamic steam traps.The
ball float steam traps with rolling ball valve, can be used
for all operating conditions, as they are unaffected by back
pressure. The Thermostatic/thermodynamic steam trap with corrosion-resistant
regulator is unaffected by waterhammer. They have an integral
strainer and non-return valve action, give automatic deaeration
and can be installed in any position.
Boiler Trim Controls Capacitance type probes are available for monitering
of high and low water levels while a range of Controllers
used in conjunction with onductivity probes provide a sophisticated
boiler monitering and control system by analysing the Total
Dissolved Solids in the water. These systems can be linked
to a range of valves providing automatic blowdown on boilers.
Temperature Control A range of direct acting, proportional control valves
allow the cooling water temperature to be controlled at an
elevated level thus increasing the heat absorbtion which leads
to lower levels of cooling agent and energy consumption.
