Regulator & Steam Solutions

Steam is the lifeblood of your process.

The steam system, often an overlooked and neglected utility, holds the key to improved equipment reliability, improved process efficiency, reduced energy costs, reduced emissions, and ultimately increased profitability.

Let us help you unlock the potential of your steam system. With 88 years in the industry, John H. Carter Company combines our steam experts, Emerson’s wide product portfolio, local service, and a consultative approach to evaluate your plant and to help you achieve real results.

Optimize Operations & Energy Efficiency

Emerson’s broad portfolio of steam solutions include: thermodynamic, thermostatic and mechanical steam traps; blow-off and blowdown valves for removing sludge and dissolved solids from the boiler drum; gauges for monitoring the boiler drum water level; and automatic recirculation control (ARC) valves for protecting the boiler feed pump. Our experts can conduct steam system surveys and recommend solutions to ensure optimal operation and enhance energy efficiency.

Stable utility operations are needed to support all production. Energy is a large part of your operating costs and emissions constraints which can increase due to poor steam system performance. With John H. Carter Company and Emerson’s help, you can make utility performance reliable and responsive; improve efficiency; maximize low cost fuel use; and lower emissions… all at the same time.

Broad Portfolio of Reliable Steam Solutions

Rosemount™ 708 Wireless Acoustic Transmitter

Built-in ultrasonic acoustic event detection that mounts externally, offering a fast, cost effective installation. This device allows visibility into steam traps and pressure relieve valves (PRVs) by accurately communicating acoustic level and temperature data as well as device data, event status and leak detection via the WirelessHART® network. The Steam Trap Monitor software (optional) provides real-time information about steam trap conditions, energy usage and emissions.

Plantweb™ Insight Steam Trap Application

The Plantweb™ Insight Steam Trap application is an industrial analytics solution that analyzes data acquired through wireless instrumentation and existing infrastructure. The application uses machine learning based asset models and analytics and easily integrates with existing infrastructure. Offering continuous steam trap status monitoring, including failure modes and analysis of economic and environmental impact, the application helps your facility improve maintenance prioritization and energy efficiency.

Boiler Level Instrumentation

Various solutions are available that meet the ASME requirements for direct or remote indication of boiler water level. Penberthy™ and Yarway level gauges are available for low, medium and high-pressure applications. Our portfolio of direct level indication solutions includes the Yarway Color-Port Level Gauge which has a maximum pressure rating of 3000 psig. Our Yarway electronic level solutions are suitable for remote indication of the boiler water level.
