The electric heating steam generator primarily consists of a water supply system, automatic control system, furnace chamber and heating system, and safety protection system. Its fundamental working principle involves an automated control system that ensures the operation process. The liquid controller or high, medium, and low electrode probes provide feedback to regulate the pumps operation (on/off), water supply duration, and furnace heating time. The maximum steam pressure set by the pressure relay decreases continuously as steam is discharged, causing the furnace water level to drop. When the water level reaches the low-water level (mechanical type) or medium-water level (electronic type), the pump automatically replenishes water. Once the water level reaches the high-water level, the pump stops supplying water. Meanwhile, the electric heating tubes in the furnace continue to generate steam continuously. The pointer-type pressure gauge on the panel or upper part of the top displays the steam pressure value in real time, with the entire process automatically indicated by indicator lights.
Electric heating steam generators are widely used in various industries: In the laundry and ironing sector, they are compatible with equipment such as dry cleaners, dryers, washers, dehydrators, flat irons, and irons. For packaging machinery, they work with labeling machines and liner labeling machines. In the biochemical industry, they support equipment like fermentation tanks, reactors, double-layer boilers, mixers, and emulsifiers. The food machinery sector utilizes them with tofu machines, steam ovens, sterilization tanks, packaging machines, coating equipment, and sealing machines. Other applications include: (oil fields, automotive) steam cleaning, (hotels, dormitories, schools, mixing stations) hot water supply, (bridges, railways) concrete curing, and (recreational clubs) sauna bathing and heat exchange equipment.
Features Of Electric Heating Steam Generator
1. High efficiency and energy saving, outstanding heat conversion efficiency
Electric heating steam generators utilize electrical energy as their primary power source, converting it into thermal energy through resistance wires or electromagnetic induction heating elements. With thermal efficiency exceeding 95%, they significantly outperform traditional coal-fired and gas boilers (approximately 70%-85%). Some advanced models equipped with waste heat recovery systems achieve integrated energy efficiency surpassing 98%, substantially reducing energy consumption costs by 23%.
2. Safe and reliable, with multiple protection mechanisms
The equipment features a fully enclosed water circulation system that completely eliminates dry burning risks. It comes standard with multiple safety interlocks: leakage protection (immediately cutting power upon detecting current leakage in heating elements), overpressure protection (automatically shutting down when pressure exceeds preset limits), and low-water protection (stopping heating and triggering alarms when water levels drop below thresholds). With no combustion process involved, it thoroughly avoids explosion and leakage hazards – common safety risks in traditional boilers 245.
3. Smart and convenient, with a high degree of automation
Equipped with an intelligent PID control system, it ensures precise temperature control (with steam temperature fluctuations within ±1℃), guaranteeing process stability. The system supports one-click start and automatic operation, eliminating the need for constant supervision. It automatically adjusts the number of heating tubes in use based on load changes, balancing their lifespan. The operation is simple and maintenance is easy 234.
4. Environmentally friendly and pollution-free, in line with green standards
During operation, there is zero waste gas, zero dust and zero waste water discharge, and the noise is low (<60dB). It fully meets the requirements of “double carbon” targets and hospitals, schools, urban centers and other scenarios with strict environmental requirements. There is no need for annual review and approval, which reduces the burden of enterprises by 235.
5. Quick response, ready to use
Compared with the preheating time of more than 30 minutes for traditional boilers, electric heating steam generators only need 3-5 minutes to produce rated pressure steam, which can quickly meet the needs of flexible production (such as instantaneous steam injection in food processing, instant steam supply in experimental research) 3.
6. Compact structure, small footprint and easy installation
The equipment features a modular and compact design, with a small footprint (0.1 ton of equipment occupies about 1㎡), making it suitable for installation in workshops, stores or laboratories with limited space. The complete machine is delivered from the factory, easy to install, no complex foundation is required, saving space cost 25.
7. Diversified application scenarios
It covers a wide range of fields including food processing (canning sterilization, baking steam injection), biomedical (injectable production, medical device sterilization), experimental research (high-purity steam supply for universities/research institutions), commercial services (hotel linen ironing, laundry cleaning), and industrial manufacturing (textile printing, packaging machinery), meeting the steam needs of different industries.
