Steam generators are the core element of energy-intensive industrial processes. They are unbeatable in many respects: high enthalpy, simple temperature control, consistent heat output, and condensate reuse. Steam generators combine efficiency with sustainability and cost savings. The challenge lies in the perfect fit between the steam generator and the operation.
What we mean by that? Quite simply: There are various steam generator models designed for different operating conditions and production goals. Only when the steam generator and the operation are truly compatible can the full potential be realized.
That’s why we at JUMAG have created a checklist within our eBook for purchasing a steam generator . There, we list all the relevant points you need to consider when choosing your steam generator.
Was wir damit meinen? Ganz einfach: Es gibt verschiedene Dampferzeuger-Modelle, die für unterschiedliche betriebliche Bedingungen und Produktionsziele konzipiert sind. Nur wenn Dampferzeuger und Betrieb wirklich zu einander passen, kann das volle Potenzial ausgeschöpft werden.
Deshalb haben wir bei JUMAG eine Checkliste innerhalb unseres eBooks für den Kauf eines Dampferzeugers erstellt. Dort führen wir alle relevanten Punkte auf, die Sie bei der Wahl Ihres Dampferzeugers berücksichtigen müssen.
The most important factors when buying a steam generator
The crux of purchasing a steam generator lies in the multitude of individual factors that are relevant for optimal customization. These factors include:
- The required amount of steam per minute or hour
- The type of water
- The type of fuel or energy source
- The required pressure
- The spatial conditions of the operation
- The type and quality of the steam
- Customer quality requirements
- How important is redundancy
- In which country should the system be installed
All of these factors are unique and must be considered on a case-by-case basis. There are many excellent steam generators available, but only an individual assessment of the factors mentioned will determine which one is the right one.
Determining individual needs
When purchasing a steam generator, the following applies: Information about steam requirements must come from the customer. The type of steam consumption, the medium, the initial and target temperatures – this information can only be provided by the customer who knows their operation best. Determining this is often difficult in individual cases, which is why, in addition to our consulting services, JUMAG now also offers instructions in our eBook.
How to find your steam generator
In addition to operational factors and production targets, the appropriate evaluation of the steam generator itself is also important. Key factors for a steam generator are:
- The size
- The pressure and temperature
- The design features
- The operating conditions
In addition, there are different fuel types: There are fossil , electric , or hybrid steam generator models , each available in different designs. Depending on the model, different safety aspects must be observed, which affect operational safety and may require training.
With all this information, it’s easy to lose track. Our eBook, specifically designed for purchasing a steam generator, helps you determine individual factors and perform complex calculations. This way, you can find the right model for your business in the diverse world of steam generators.
