(2) Electric Heaters and (2) Heater Gaskets
(2) Sight Glass Tubes and (4) Washers
(1) Pressure Control
(1) Contactor
Single Service TransformerSupplied standard with all portable steam generators, the Transformer steps down the primary high voltage supplied for the heaters, in order to provide 120VAC1Ø for the controls; with this option, only the two (2) primary high voltage supplies are required.
Manual Low Water Reset5Manual Low Water Reset trips if the electric heaters shut-off because of a low water condition. Reset must be manually pressed to resume steam production.
Portable Mounting IncludesWheels
Push Handle
Single Service Transformer Option
Water Feed Booster PumpSupplied standard on any steam generator with an operating pressure higher than 15 psi. The Water Feed Booster Pump increases your incoming water pressureto overcome the operating pressure of the steam generator. The Pump requires a 5-150 psi water supply with a minimum flow rate of 2 gpm.
  • 1 Electro-Steam™ 100-240 kW electric steam generators require three (3) power supplies: Two (2) primary high voltage supplies and one (1) secondary 120 VAC 1Ø, 50/60 Hz supply. Each generator is custom built to accommodate two (2) supplies of only one (1) customer specific high voltage for the heaters. 120 VAC 1Ø, 50/60 Hz must also be supplied for the controls, unless the Single Service Transformer option is added.
  • 2 Three Phase (3Ø) primary high voltage is standard, but steam generators with a power rating of 30 kW or lower are also available in Single Phase (1Ø) upon request.
  • 3 Calculations are based off of a 212 ºF boiler feed-water temperature. Boiler feed-water temperatures that range between 60 ºF and 140 ºF, are approximately 80% to 90% of the calculated values shown. Boiler feed-water must not exceed 140 ºF.
  • 4 Wetted Surfaces.
  • 5 A Manual Low Water Reset Button is supplied standard with every steam generator, but it is disabled. If this Reset Button is required as per your local boiler codes, simply remove the jumper wire from the back of the Reset Button.
