| Hydrotherm's
packaged, automatic ready to use steam or high temperature water generator uses thermal
fluid as the source of heat. This provides several benefits over an ordinary steam or
water boiler. A boiler uses combustion gases to transfer heat into a vessel or tubes
containing water. The gases are poor heat carriers, so large areas of heat transfer are
required. This means that vessel must be large. |
|
|
| In contrast,
thermal fluids are far better heat carrier than gases, and thus require much smaller heat
transfer surfaces. Therefore, the size of the Hydrotherm steam or high temperature water
generator is significantly smaller than the ordinary steam boiler performing comparable
duty. |
|
|
| High Temperature
water up to 500oF and high pressure steam up to 800 psig can be generated -
while the thermal fluid operates at atmospheric pressure. The heat transfer fluid
circulates safely through the Hydrotherm generator even if the water level is low and
tubes are exposed. |
|
|
| Typical
applications include Heat Sink for Thermal Incinerators & Salt Systems. Thermal Oil
Heaters using Steam Atomized Burners. For heater start up air could be used as atomizing
medium subsequently Hot Oil is circulated through the Steam Generator to feed steam for
atomizing. |
|
|
| Control
Systems are designed for maximum safety - they satisfy all current IRI, FM, NFPA, UL, OHSA
requirements (and any special requirements specified by purchaser) |
