Grants for steam trap maintenance

We're delighted to be counted as an authorized supplier to  Energir's financial assistance new Steam Trap Maintenance grant program, officially launched today. Information on the program is now available on the Energir's website: Energir.com Our customers can download the "Registration and conditions" form from this link. https://energir.com/en/business/energy-efficiency/energy-efficiency-programs/steamtrap

We look forward to and are excited to start working with our existing and future clients in this new Energir program. Apply today for one or more grants to help you with the annual maintenance of your steam traps. Your savings could be substantial!

Are you an Énergir customer and are you using steam that’s primarily natural-gas-fired (>50%) for process or space heating?

Énergir offers grants to help with the annual maintenance of your steam traps.

As a Énergir-authorized supplier, we will identify the applicable grants and may deduct them directly from your invoice if you want to participate.

The benefits of servicing steam traps annually.

Defective steam traps are responsible for a significant portion of steam leakage. It is estimated that between 15% and 25% of steam traps become defective each year. Unfortunately, the leaks are not always visible to the naked eye, but they result in higher natural gas consumption.

Receive Up to $106,700 in grants per maintenance¹

RC Systems, Inc., a Texas-based manufacturer of fixed combustible & toxic gas detection instruments, has selected Bestobell Aquatronix as its’ sales & service representative for Eastern Canada. RC Systems products are known for their reliability, performance, and ease of use for applications where maintenance and safety are crucial.

We are pleased to announce that Bestobell Aquatronix is now Intempco's exclusive Ontario distributor for their sanitary temperature products for the Food & Beverage market!

Intempco 3A approved Sanitary Temperature sensors provide a complete solution for monitoring and indicating applications for the Food & Beverage industry. Apppropriate for CIP applications that include milk & dairy, food preparation, pharmaceutical, sterilizers, pasteurizers and others.

Do you know, our electrodes are at the heart of our Hydrastep system?

As well as being essential to the measurement of water and steam, they are also incredibly durable and reliable.

This is due to their specific design, as each electrode is handcrafted and tested to withstand both extreme pressures and temperatures. As a result they can endure harsh conditions for many years (even decades), ensuring that your plant will continue to operate safely and consistently.

We are delighted to announce that we have secured an instrumentation order for the newbuild Joint Support Ship being built by Seaspan shipyard for the Royal Canadian Navy.

This is the first of two such vessels being constructed for the Royal Canadian Navy, the delivery of the first is scheduled for 2023.

With a length of 173.7 metres and a breadth of 24 metres, this multi-purpose Naval Vessel will be the largest ever constructed in Canada, and has a significant instrumentation requirement with more than 140 level & pressure transmitters, more than 30 flood detection switches, and associated termination modules. We are also expecting a future order for all tank level alarm switches.

A major tire manufacturer in the Southeastern United States seeking to improve their steam curing process. Installing the VorCone steam quality meter along with temperature and pressure sensors has led to this facility significantly reducing product losses due to the presence of condensate in their steam curing process. Additionally, this facility received corporate recognition for achieving a reduction in their overall energy costs.

In-Situ Gas Changes with Gas-SelectX®

We're changing the game for so many customers who deal with the consistent challenges of changing gas in the pipe. Find out how.

D-ISO Success in it’s first installment.
Dwr Cymru Welsh Water have multiple drinking water plants and had an issue with ageing turbidity monitors at one of its drinking water sites. After over 20 years continuous service the existing turbidity monitors were breaking down and
replacement parts were not available. Partech were approached to provide an alternative to potentially replace the current 15 units. The potential replacement sensor had to not only match but exceed the current measurement accuracy to ensure compliance with strict water quality standards. Another requirement was to move away from wet calibration standards and simplify the calibration process as a whole.
The Partech TurbiTechw² D-ISO and 7300w² control monitor were installed on a 3 month trial with Partech providing on site guidance and support in the initial phase. After 3 months the data from the D-ISO was assessed and found to meet the trial criteria. Data was stored using the 7300w²’ monitors onboard logging facility. The engineers reported increased accuracy of results along with a greater simplicity of calibration using the D-ISO’s dry calibration reference cell. Following the successful trial a second unit is being installed with a longer term project in place to gradually replace the aging existing units.
Building on the success of the TurbiTechw² LR sensor and by continually striving to improve and expand our product range Partech is proud to introduce the new TurbiTechw² D-ISO sensor. The D-ISO is a natural evolution in terms of development and offers our customers an improved user experience in all areas.

Delta Controls Ltd.are pleased to announce that they have signed an agreement with Emerson, to purchase its Mobrey line of measurement products manufactured in Slough, UK.

As an original Bestobell-Mobrey company, Bestobell-Aquatronix is looking forward to showcasing Delta-Mobrey products in Canada.

VorTek Instruments’ VorCone™ flow meters utilize two different flow meter technologies in combination; vortex and differential pressure. The design has blended the two separate flow metering principles into one hybrid system where the two meters complement each other's performance. This combination allows for the prediction of the fluid density, volumetric flow rate and mass flow rate without any fluid density information being required from an external source. In saturated steam service, the meter produces a reliable steam quality (dryness) measurement and steam mass flow rate reading.

Flow Meter With Dual Head:

Is your process too critical that needs back-up for flow measurement and that too in a limited budget? No worries, Bestobell has 2-in-1 solution. One flow body with two independent flow measurement for redundancy. Whether it's Steam, Liquid, Gas or BTU flow measurement, this solution works.
