Utility Series Steam Boilers

One to Two Boiler Horse Power Complete Package Steam Boilers
 

HOW IT WORKS

Utility Series Steam Generators embody the famous SPEEDYLECTRIC Electrode Principle. Maximum efficiency and long trouble free operation has made the SPEEDYLECTRIC Electrode Steam Generator the favorite of leading companies. 

Electrodes (A) are suspended in the generating tank. When electric current is turned on, heat is generated by the resistance of the water to passage of current between the solid metal electrodes. The water acts as the resistance element... There are no heating elements to burn out or replace. 

 

WHY THERE'S LESS SCALING

Scaling with the electrode steam generator presents a relatively minor problem as compared with fuel fired boilers in areas where scale forming water is used for make-up. In fuel fired boilers, extremely high tube or shell temperatures bake on solids thrown out as water flashes into steam. In SPEEDYLECTRIC Electrode Steam Generators, heat and steam are generated by resistance of the water to the passage of electricity. No part of the generator is ever hotter than the water or steam itself therefore, no baking of the solids or residue.
 

NO LOW WATER RISK

No low water damage is possible, because should the water supply fail, the electrodes are progressively uncovered and less and less current passes. This automatically slows the rate of steam generation. When the tips become uncovered, no current can pass; hence, no low water damage can occur. 

 

MORE FLEXIBLE

Speedylectric Steam Generators and electric boilers are the reliable answer for producing high or low pressure steam for molding, laminating, embossing, drying, humidifying, cooking, cleaning, degreasing, sterilizing, vulcanizing, heating, etc. They assure a constant temperature up to 365°F, independent of central boilers...and they can be installed anywhere in your plant - right next to process equipment, if desired. 

For Remote Areas where a small amount of steam is needed beyond the reach of steam lines and where costs of additional piping may be prohibitive. 

For Higher Pressures than your central boiler supplies. Main electric boilers can be operated at lower pressures while a Speedylectric Steam Generator supplies the smaller amount of high pressure steam required. 

CONSTRUCTION
Speedylectric Steam Generators and electric boilers are constructed under the ASME power boiler code. Generator cases are constructed with 16 guage steel. Bases are constructed with 3/16 inch steel plate. All case and base surfaces are fully primed and exposed surfaces receive an enamal coating. Each completed unit is fully hydrostatically and operationally tested prior to shipping. All completed units are stamped with ASME "E" symbol stamp. 

TRIM
All necessary items are included: Valving, Steam Pressure Gauge, Safety valve, Ammeter, Junction Box (breaker disconnect is customer supplied). Pressure Control Device, Water Level Control and a Pump & Motor. Low-water cut-off devices are not required on Speedylectric Electrode Steam Generators the electrodes themselves act as a low water cut-off. 

  • SAFETY - No low water danger - self regulating.
  • FAMOUS ELECTRODE PRINCIPLE - No tubes or resistance elements to scale, clog or burn out.
  • VERY HIGH EFFICIENCY - +98%.
  • SMALL FOOT PRINT - Vertical construction
  • EASY INSTALLATION - Only water + electrical required.
