Steam QM®-1 Automatic Steam Quality Monitoring
Steam quality plays a crucial role in the sterilization process, so it is essential for patient safety and reducing hospital-acquired infections. Quicker and consistently more reliable and accurate than manual methods, Steam QM®-1 provides continuous steam quality measurement data trending over time. By automatically detecting the dryness fraction of steam entering autoclaves, Steam QM®-1 enables you to maintain the steam quality necessary to ensure proper sterilization. Steam QM®-1 helps prevent pitting of instruments as well as dangerous wet packs that can stop or delay surgery, costing hospitals and physicians time and money and creating an infection risk for patients.
Sterilization and Autoclave Applications
Armstrong offers a complete array of state-of-the-art products and solutions for your sterilization and autoclave applications, such as: wireless monitoring for steam traps (AIM®, SteamEye®), and filtration for clean steam in sanitary applications (ASF steam filters), as well as separators, condensate controllers, PRV stations, and control valves.
Effective Steam Trapping
Armstrong steam traps are designed for energy efficiency, minimal steam loss, corrosion resistance and long, dependable service. We offer a complete range of steam traps including: the inverted bucket steam traps, bimetallic super heat steam traps, clean steam thermostatic steam traps, disc steam traps, dual orifice steam traps, float and thermostatic steam traps, radiator traps, trap valve stations and more.

AIM® (Armstrong Intelligent Monitoring
AIM® is a wireless monitoring technology built on the WirelessHART and ISA-100 communications protocols, which continuously monitors and evaluates the operating condition of steam traps and other critical equipment in your system. AIM® provides instantaneous notification in the event of steam trap or critical equipment failure.
SteamEye®
SteamEye® uses a proprietary wireless transmitter mounted at the inlet of any type of steam trap to detect temperature and ultrasonic fluctuations in steam flow. In the event of steam trap failure, a signal is sent to a central receiver, alerting system operators that maintenance is required.
SAGE® Smart Steam and Hot Water System Monitoring, Measuring and Reporting
SAGE® keeps you fully informed, 24 hours a day with regular updates, precise documentation, custom-filtered reports, and real-time alerts notifying you of any problems. SAGE® work seamlessly with our real-time monitoring products (SteamEye®, AIM®, and The Brain®), ensuring that it always has access to the most current data.
This powerful software calculates steam loss data and reports it using our proprietary steam system efficiency methodology. The Armstrong methodology has been approved by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), and ours is the first efficiency methodology to be approved for international trading of resultant carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions credits under the Kyoto Protocol.
