GESTRA: Intelligent Steam and Condensate Management for Maximum Efficiency

Founded in Bremen and now a part of Flowserve, GESTRA AG stands as one of the world’s most respected manufacturers of valves, control systems, and intelligent solutions for steam and condensate applications. With over a century of experience, Firma GESTRA provides process safety and energy efficiency in thermal systems across power plants, chemical processing, and food and beverage industries. The company’s commitment to reliability and innovation is reflected in advanced technologies like GESTRA steam traps, valve blowdown systems, and dual pressure valve designs for dynamic steam environments.

Precision Solutions for Steam and Condensate Systems

GESTRA’s leadership is evident in the development of high-performance steam traps including the renowned GESTRA UNA 26H, UNA 23H, UNA 25, and UNA 14. The brand’s bimetallic steam trap technology, such as BK45 GESTRA and GESTRA BK 212, ensures accurate condensate discharge and temperature-controlled operation even under fluctuating loads. Specialized solutions like the Kondensomat GESTRA and GESTRA MK series address highly specific needs in moisture-sensitive steam applications. Systems like GESTRA NRG and NRGT 26-1 GESTRA offer advanced level monitoring, critical in boiler operations and automated drainage.

Engineering Reliability with Check Valves and Blowdown Systems

GESTRA check valve models, including GESTRA RK 86, RK 86A, RK 76, and GESTRA RK 41, represent decades of refined engineering and thermal resilience. These valves prevent backflow and are commonly used in condensate return lines, contributing to safe and stable operation. The GESTRA Disco Rückschlagventil and GESTRA Disco series are especially noted for their compact design and silent closing mechanisms. For blowdown applications, GESTRA Abschlammventil, GESTRA PA46, PA 26, MB14, and GESTRA BW 31 support the safe removal of sludge and sediment, preserving boiler integrity and thermal efficiency. The blowdown valve systems from GESTRA are known for high durability and fail-safe design.

Specialized Valves and Modular Integration

In industrial steam systems, custom-tailored components like GESTRA Ventile, Vakuumbrecher GESTRA, and GESTRA Rückschlagklappe are integrated to meet the demands of both standard and highly specialized applications. The GESTRA UNA 45HL exemplifies this adaptability with high-capacity discharge suited for dynamic load changes. GESTRA Steam Systems are modular and flexible, designed to minimize energy losses while maximizing operational continuity. The GESTRA Dampf expertise extends to optimizing every step of the steam lifecycle, supported by training resources like the GESTRA Kondensatfibel for engineering teams and operators.

Experience You Can Trust
