When you think of steam power, you might imagine steam engines or chugging locomotives. However industrial steam generators (or boilers) serve many purposes:
- Distillation
- Sterilization
- Heat pump auxiliary heating
- Vessel heating
- HVAC
An electric steam boiler can convert approximately 97% of electric energy to steam energy. These steam generators are best for those applications requiring a steam output of 0-100 psig.
Automatic safety controls—a liquid-level controller, for example—maintain appropriate water levels and shuts the generator off if the water supply drops below safe levels. Steam generators with this functionality can operate continuously without overheating.
Stainless steel steam generators are best for applications in which it is crucial to have clean steam to meet quality control requirements. The stainless steel minimizes contaminants.
