QualSteam™
The Forbes Marshall QualSteam™ is a combination of the pressure reducing valve, temperature control valve and a steam flow meter. It delivers equipment level pressure optimisation along with consistency of process temperature and quantifies the steam consumption. Thus, the product delivers benefits beyond savings of productivity improvement and process quality enhancement.
- Optimised steam pressure at equipment level
- Stable and accurate temperature control with accuracy upto +/-1 degC
- Steam flow measurement
- Auto mode to regulate the outlet pressure to the optimum value
- Auto tuning for temperature and pressure controls
- Easy integration in case if PLC already exists at site
- Cloud connectivity with real time data logging
- Optimum value of steam pressure and precise control of steam temperature results into steam savings, reduced fuel consumption
- Measurement of steam flow enables to compute equipment level steam consumption
- Enhanced Specific Steam Consumption (SSC) leads to reduced operating cost
- Precise temperature control offers robust product quality and reduction in rejections and rework
- Eliminates the risks associated with overheating / cooling due to inaccurate temperature control thereby ensures operational safety

Frequently Asked Questions
Real-time monitoring of steam flow and process parameters enables equipment-level visibility, helping identify variations in steam consumption. This allows for better control of energy usage, optimising operational costs, and improving process consistency.
The QualSteam optimises steam pressure and temperature control, thereby helping to reduce fuel consumption and carbon footprint. It ensures that steam is used efficiently, leading to lower operating costs and better energy management.
QualSteam continuously monitors and adjusts steam pressure and temperature to ensure they are maintained at optimal levels. By doing so, it reduces fuel consumption, lowers carbon footprint, and helps achieve better-specific steam consumption (SSC), thus reducing operating costs.
By ensuring optimal steam pressure and precise temperature control, QualSteam reduces excess steam consumption and energy wastage. It also enhances operational safety by eliminating risks associated with inaccurate temperature control, ensuring consistent product quality and reducing rejections and rework.
Yes, QualSteam can be seamlessly integrated into existing PLC, DCS, SCADA, or stand-alone PID controllers. It provides real-time insights into various process parameters, such as temperature, pressure, steam flow, and control valve opening.
