Reimers Electra Steam - Blog

Early planning to get replacement and new boilers installed helps make a comfortable project. Reimers has very quick lead times but order now to take advantage of current pricing and not risking longer lead times in the Fall. The smaller boiler is a hot water system, the larger is a steam generator, steam boiler capable of up to 150 psi.

All functioning components are designed to be in sight and accessible. Note the feed pump and valving allows space for tools and examination. The pressure controls are exposed to keep heat minimal and allow adjustment or service. Should any leaks or spilled water occur the drips will not fall upon sensitive electrical parts. The electronics are housed in an opposite cabinet away from possible steam or spray.

Reimers Steam Boilers can be matched to any requirements for steam processing, commercial, laboratories, medical centers, or industrial sites. The boiler or generator is a low profile, small foot print that allows placement where low or high pressure steam needs generated and used. This eliminates losses from unnecessary piping and line sizing efforts.

Reimers builds a series of electric steam boilers having a stainless outer shell that is designed to shed water. Compact to fit in small areas, or even some sterilizer cabinets, these boilers generate adequate steam power for any occasion. Standard options allow up to 100 psi and 600 volts.

The use of electric power for water and steam generation is expanding. Opportunity is growing for larger electric boiler models and demand for small electric boilers has remained strong. There are many developments pulling the demand such as incentives to use electric, a general trend to make green decisions, potential surcharges on fossil fuel usage, and opportunity to avoid costs and appearances of chimneys and fuel tanks.

Electric boilers have quietly (make less noise during operation than fans and blowers on fossil burners) done their work. They meet ASME and UL and CSA requirements for pressure applications and electrical safety. Read on to see other benefits of electric boiler steam generators and electric hot water boilers.

Located in historical Virginia near the famed Shenandoah River and Shenandoah National Park the people at Reimers design and build boilers for the world. Our water and steam boilers work to conserve energy while protecting resources. Electric heating creates no onsite carbon impact. Zero emission projects.

Traditional heating systems have an efficiency of 56% to 70%, according to the U.S. Department of Energy, which is a significant loss in energy savings. Modern boilers and water heaters, on the other hand, have an efficiency of over 80%, which results in significant energy savings when utilized by a large number of people. However, where possible, the use of electric boilers can boost the efficiency to near 100% and far out-do the other energy sources.

Reimers Boilers often use MTH Pumps. MTH states close-coupled and pedestal mounted regenerative turbine pumps represent the most economical, high performance alternative for low flow (1/2 to 22 GPM) clean fluid applications involving moderate to high pressures (heads to 600 feet). By combining the latest concepts in hydraulic turbine pump design with precision computer controlled manufacturing, the T41/E41 Series pumps deliver high efficiency operation even at low NPSH. Costs are controlled by efficient manufacturing processes and highly optimized pump designs. Maintenance costs are kept to a minimum by combining an easily serviceable design with the use of high quality components to provide long life.
