Meet STeaM‑es Now
See every leak in your steam lines: Cable‑less, wireless, acoustic AI.
STeaM-es
STeaM-es is an autonomous sensor that wirelessly detects leaks and blockages in steam traps using acoustic intelligence, preventing energy loss instantly.
Analyzes the sound profile of a steam trap to instantly differentiate normal operation, blockage, or leakage.
Harvests tiny thermal gradients from the steam line to power itself, eliminating batteries and wiring.
Prevents condensate build‑up and water‑hammer risks, extending equipment life.
Detects steam leaks within seconds, reducing energy waste and CO₂ emissions.
Steam Trap Fault Costs
15‑30 % of steam traps in industrial plants are faulty, costing up to $2,640 per trap per year in wasted energy and emissions.
Manual Inspection Limits
Periodic manual checks miss faults between inspections, and scaling to thousands of traps is time‑consuming and error‑prone.
Condensate & Safety Risks
A stuck trap leads to condensate buildup and water‑hammer, creating mechanical stress, equipment damage, and unplanned shutdowns.
Listen to Diagnose
STeaM‑es continuously listens to the trap’s acoustic signature, classifying it as Normal, Blocked, or Leaking in real‑time.
Zero‑Cable, Zero‑Maintenance
Powered by thermoelectric harvesting, it needs no batteries or wires – simply snap on and start monitoring.
Data‑Driven Decision Engine
Beyond acoustic data, temperature sensors feed a cloud platform, turning reactive maintenance into predictive insights.
Cut fuel costs, extend equipment life, and move toward carbon‑neutral operations.
