LOCTITE^®Pulse smart maintenance IIoT services

A plant housing numerous steam traps often faces challenges with accessibility, relying on manual inspections involving skilled labor to balance cost and risk. Traditional annual inspections lead to high failure costs due to the complex behavior of steam traps. LOCTITE Pulse Smart Steam Traps revolutionize this by offering continuous monitoring, early detection of failures, and timely repairs, minimizing costs and consequences. LOCTITE Pulse Smart Steam Traps distinguishes irregularities from operational variations thanks to AI and pattern recognition, ensuring ongoing asset monitoring. Beyond efficiency, solution emphasizes sustainability. For example, with 100 Smart Steam Trap sensors installed, we estimate a reduction of up to 560 tons of emissions per year of CO₂, equivalent to planting a whopping 20,000 trees and 450,000 € saved through reduced steam loss.

LOCTITE Pulse helps improve energy efficiency by providing timely alerts on potential issues, reducing unplanned downtime, and optimizing maintenance schedules. This leads to overall energy savings and increased operational efficiency.
