Electric Boiler solution of Ecotherm Austria brand (used to create hot water, steam and clean steam)

PGTECH is a distributor and supplier of high quality electric boiler products of the ECOTHERM® for generating steam or hot water, fitted with sliding frame & pre-installed; in parallel with various solutions for hot water, steam and solar energy systems in a "turnkey" manner. with the world's leading advanced heat transfer technology, patented by ECOTHERM.

Conversion of electrical energy into heat is increasingly common. Due to the continuous expansion of renewable energy sources, there may be a surplus of electrical energy at certain times of the day. This excess can be converted into heat energy in the system called “Power to Heat”. If fossil fuels such as oil or gas are not available or a chimney system cannot be installed, the ideal solution is an electric heating boiler. Join PGTECH to learn about ECOTHERM's solutions for individual and turnkey electric boilers, skid-mounted or container-mounted in this article.

ECOTHERM electric hot water boiler® with heating element, up to 30 MW, skid mounted and pre-installed
ECOTHERM electric hot water boilers are used when the only primary energy source available is electricity or to convert excess electrical energy into heat in a system called “Power to Heat”. Electrical energy is converted into thermal energy by individual screw-type heating elements that are individually replaceable for easy maintenance. Each boiler is pre-wired, pre-installed and skid-mounted for quick and easy on-site installation. Besides standard models, ECOTHERM also provides individual solutions in terms of size, design, voltage, capacity and controller.

Features:
• Electric boiler shell made of stainless steel or mild steel
• To heat, heat the area and create domestic hot water
• Device that converts electrical energy into thermal energy • With electric flange heaters or individual heating elements
• Control panel with machine visualization capabilities, several interfaces with existing BMS (Building Management Systems)
• Designed and manufactured according to the Pressure Equipment Directive PED 2014/68/EC or ASME Sect standard. VIII Div. 1
Dashboard
The ECOTHERM electric hot water boiler is equipped with an industry-standard control panel with a solid metal housing. Each boiler has a main input switch as well as fuses and power contactors for each heating element. Depending on the capacity, the Hot Water Boiler is controlled by a 3-stage intelligent controller or by a freely programmable industrial microprocessor controller with touch screen HMI and exchange capability. data via BUS system or external start/stop.

ECOTHERM Electric Steam Boiler® word input 250 – 20,000kg/h, pressure up to 16 bar
ECOTHERM electric steam boilers are used for hospitals or industrial sites when the main source of energy available is electricity. Steam is generated by a resistance heating flange inside the boiler shell. The units are mounted on sliding frames complete with feed water tank, water treatment equipment and control panel. Complete factory piping and wiring ensures quick and easy on-site installation.

Features:
• Finished ready to use, mounted on a sliding frame for easier on-site installation
• Operated by electricity without gas/oil supply and chimney system • Pipes and wires are made at the factory
• System visualization dashboard, some interfaces with existing BMS
• Individually designed according to customer needs
• Designed and manufactured according to the Pressure Equipment Directive PED 2014/68/EC or ASME Sect standard. VIII Div. 1
Dashboard
The ECOTHERM electric steam system is equipped with its own logic controller to ensure constant control and monitoring of steam output performance at all times. Each boiler has a main input switch as well as fuses and power contactors for each heating element. The control panel is equipped with a modern microprocessor controller with a touch screen HMI to control and display all the equipment provided. All components in the company's control panels are electrically and wiring tested.

ECOTHERM electric clean steam generator® capacity from 250 – 10,000kg/h as standard, higher capacity on request
The ECOTHERM electric clean steam generator is used in hospitals or industrial areas when the main source of energy available is electricity. Clean steam is generated by the resistance heating flange inside the boiler shell. These units are mounted on skid frames complete with water treatment unit, feed water tank and control panel. The complete piping and wiring system is pre-assembled, ensuring quick and easy on-site installation. Clean steam is generated using electrical energy.

Diagram describing the working mechanism of ECOTHERM's clean electric steam generator system:

1- Clean steam generator: produces clean, sterile steam by using high-quality stainless steel materials. Generate steam using electrical energy. Includes stainless steel tank, removable heating bundle and all necessary connections for safety and control.
2- High pressure blowdown control: blowdown of the boiler where deposits are generated, by means of a timer controlled blowdown valve.
3- High pressure surface blowdown control (TDS control) continuously measures the conductivity of the water just below the water surface. If the value is too high, the valve will open until the measured value drops below the set point.
4- Pressure control: pressure will be set mechanically (by mechanical pressure control valve) or electrically by pressure transmitter (control panel) and electrically operated valve .
5- Steam supply: clean steam outlet port from the clean steam generator
6- Water supply tank: prepares boiler feed water, collects condensate, preheats feed water
7- Overflow pipe: protection from rising water
8- Resistance heating flange
9- Air exhaust and oxygen release valve (outside the building): eliminate exhaust port.
10- Level control: to keep the water level in the tank constant, a level control system is needed. In addition, protection against low water and high water is also installed.
11- Preheat feed water To protect the boiler against high temperature differences and thermal stress, the feed water needs to be preheated by steam injection.
12- Pipe to drain the tank
13- Boiler feed water: feed water source connected to feed water pump and boiler
14- Condensate return recovers condensate from various consuming devices, e.g. steam pipe drain points, heat exchangers, washing machines.
15- Discharge cooler to cool hot water from bottom and surface discharge outlets.
16- Water sample cooler For daily analysis of feed water and boiler water, hot water samples must be cooled with a water sample cooler.
17- Feed water pump set: Vertical multistage centrifugal feed water pump provides feed water to the steam generator. The pump is designed according to the steam pressure and maximum flow of the boiler.
18- Main control panel regulates all independent steam generation and control of safety devices
Features:
• Mounted on a sliding frame, pre-assembled and wired for easy on-site installation • Operated by electric energy
• System visualization dashboard, several interfaces with existing BMS (Building Management System)
• Clean steam tank and pipes made of stainless steel AISI 316 Ti or Duplex
• Designed and manufactured according to the Pressure Equipment Directive PED 2014/68/EC or ASME Sect standard. VIII Div. first

ECOTHERM Turnkey Electric Steam Solution®
Optional with ECOTHERM Solar Steam System®

All elements are designed and coordinated perfectly with each other. This ensures maximum efficiency and therefore maximum return on investment.

With over 1,000 systems installed over the past decades ensuring consistent know-how for tailor-made turnkey solutions. Steam systems are complex and specialized. On the one hand, a lot of different ingredients have to be used. All of these components need to be optimally coordinated to ensure perfect functionality and performance from day one. On the other hand, steam systems operate at high pressure. Therefore, a failure can be very dangerous indeed for the staff operating the system as well as for the entire building. Therefore, ECOTHERM provides complete turnkey solutions for each individual.
Services range from design, 3D visualization, project management, overproduction, pre-assembly, wiring and testing to transportation, operations, monitoring and maintenance. Experienced ECOTHERM engineers ensure your system operates stably, economically, at the desired capacity, and train your staff how to monitor and control the most important system parameters.< br /> Premium quality of product and superior service throughout the entire project is the minimum you should demand for your bespoke steam system.
