An electric steam boiler is a type of boiler where the steam is generated using electricity, rather than through the combustion of a fuel source. Steam boiler systems are used in many industry sectors, such as food industry, textile mill, paper factory, sugar mill, oil field, power plants and other industries.

Traditional industrial mini electric boilers employ a water bath into which immersion heaters are inserted. This type of boiler suffers from corrosion problems and frequent heater element failure in the long term.

The Dry heater can be used as a boiler to produce steam in a single pass without the necessity of a water bath. Further it is possible to produce steam in the range of 2 to 100 Bar. The heater elements are long-life and it does not suffer from any corrosion problems.

Boilers in textile Industries

While steam heat is necessary to the textile production processes, providing the steam itself can be costly, depending on the boiler type. Steam and hot water play an integral role at several stages of the textile manufacturing process. Most conventional boilers require several hours to produce steam from a cold start due to their fire-tube design, and the water reservoirs can be quite large. This design isn’t very cost-efficient for textile companies whose demand for steam fluctuates day to day, or even hour by hour. As a result, many manufacturing plants must keep their boilers active even when they aren’t productive, which runs up fuel and water costs. In some cases, this can even make it difficult for some factories to comply with greenhouse emissions standards. These challenges often cause textile manufacturing companies to seek more energy-efficient solutions to provide their steam heat.

The various processes in textile processing like dyeing, printing and finishing requires steam. In dyeing process steam boilers make it possible to heat steam to specific temperatures needed to dye fabrics the proper colour. In finishing process for certain fabrics, steam is the ideal method, making a steam boiler a vital part of the process. Considering the above requirements for providing steam in the textile processing the steam boiler must be selected which has flexibility, fuel efficiency and ease of maintenance which will be achieved by the Dryheater.
