Steam hybrid systems: the strategy to reduce emissions and costs

Blog

The pressure to reduce emissions, contain energy costs and gain resilience has prompted many industries to rethink their thermal generation model. One of the most efficient and flexible solutions is the hybrid steam system, which combines a high-efficiency electric boiler with a conventional gas boiler. By intelligently managing the sources, this system can adapt to […]

Why use solid state relays in electric steam generators?

In industrial applications where very precise control of steam flow, temperature or pressure is required, the type of power switching in an electric boiler can make the difference between a stable and an inefficient process. In this context, solid state relays (SSRs) have become a key solution over traditional electromechanical contactors. In this article we […]

How much steam do you need? Basic guide to sizing your electric steam generator

Choosing the right electric steam generator is not just a question of power. An oversized unit can result in unnecessary energy costs, and a small unit may not meet the needs of the process, causing bottlenecks or production losses. In this guide we show you the key factors you need to take into account to […]
