Following the recent earthquake in Colombia, a volunteer initiative was launched by our Colombia office to support the affected communities.

Thanks to the solidarity of colleagues across the various HRST offices, we raised funds to purchase approximately 192 kg (423 lb) of relief supplies, including food, water, and hygiene and personal care products. We also included food for dogs and cats, as they are also part of the affected families.

These supplies will be sent directly to Chocó, one of the areas impacted by the earthquake.

We extend our deepest thanks to everyone who chose to get involved. Every contribution mattered, and together, we turned solidarity into action.

High-energy steam piping failures are rare, until they aren't.
Covered Piping Systems (CPS) programs exist because industry experience has shown that the consequences of failure can be severe. From creep damage and fatigue to water hammer and support issues, proactive inspection and risk assessment help plants identify problems before they become outages.
In this carousel, we break down:
🔸What CPS is
🔸Why it matters
🔸Common failure mechanisms
🔸How HRST helps plants stay compliant, safe, and reliable

💨Mechanical pipe pe*******on seals stop exhaust gas leaks and keep plant personnel safe. However, under increased pressure and drastic temperature changes, many traditional seals risk overheating and cracking due to inadequate allowance for expansion.

HRST's Series 6 Mechanical Pipe Pe*******on Seals reduce these risks, and come with HRST's patented Self Energizing Ring (SER), which greatly minimizes exhaust leakage (see our attached brochure & graph for proof!)

🔸Our series 6 pen seals are highly durable and easy to install.
🔸HRST Floor seals flexibly fit within existing pipe insulation.
🔸HRST Roof seals prevent water intrusion with rain shield.

When it matters, don't settle for any less efficiency or safety. If you want to learn more, check out HRST's pen seals brochure below!

Are your HRSG/Boiler steam drum doors getting hard to open and close? Do they have notable rust or wear? Maybe they're in need of an upgrade! Don't let neglect create issues that cause you to blow steam. 😤

🔸Upgrades help reduce risk of gasket leaks and blowouts.
🔸Belleville washers stabilize bolt tension & gasket compression.
🔸Alignment blocks keep your doors safe and centered.
🔸Upgrades fit elliptical & round steam drum manways perfectly.
🔸Our upgrades are reliable, proven, and safe.

Steam drum reliability is not just a maintenance item, it is a safety issue. Proper steam drum sealing is extremely important. Check out our most recent Boiler Biz issue to learn more about the importance of proper steam drum sealing. Make a Boiler Biz account at www.boilerbiz.com.
