Reimers Electra Steam - Blog

Do you want modern technology to manage your electric boiler? Perhaps you like simple controls that can be used to provide all your needs. Either way Reimers has it. Adapting to customer requirements is what pulls Reimers through time. Reimers has built electric boiler systems for many decades.

Planning saves time, saves costs, prevents problems. When it is hot outside plan for when it will not be hot. You will need heat, steam, or heated water in the coming season. Reimers can work with you now so you are not cold when it gets cold.

The new HVR - electric hot water boiler series is designed to meet the demands of modern heating equipment, providing as standard equipment multiple communication protocols for communication with the building automa tion system (BAS), heating power limiting to manage the electrical demand of the facility, a step controller with advanced features to modulate up to 12 boiler heating stages, up to 100kA short circuit current rating of the panel and much more. Each boiler can be optional equipped with a solid state SCR controlled modulation heating stage to provide smooth heating power control between individual on/off heating stages and reduction of wear on the contactor used in the on/off switched heating stages. Further all boiler models can be equipped with a high precision power/energy transducer which allows logging energy consumed by the boiler, monitoring the power, all voltages and currents in the three-phase power supply and communicates with the step controller, which allows the monitoring of all heating stages for proper function. All boiler models can also be equipped with unfused molded case switches, which allows a simpler and more compact installation in confined places. A complete list of optional equipment is listed in Optional Equipment.

Its not new to Reimers, these boilers made for producing hot water come with electric visual and audible alarms, BacNet, flow switch, and internal control power supply. This order called for a pair of boilers. With increasing demand for technology Reimers continues to develop new features that are meeting customer demand.

Skid packages with boiler, tank, and other equipment are often built by Reimers to help reduce site assembly at a project. Any size electric boiler and tank can be placed on one of the standard steel frames available. Reimers has a large list of available options and combinations that can meet build specs.

Stainless steel is made to be impervious to corrosion, rust, and other forms of deterioration. This longevity may show cost savings for businesses, as the need for frequent replacements and maintenance is reduced. More strict hygiene standards can be met in the pharmaceuticals, food processing, and biotechnology industries. Stainless steel’s smooth, non-porous surface inhibits the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms, making it the material of choice for applications where cleanliness is crucial. It is easy to clean and sterilize, ensuring the purity of the contents within the pressure vessel.

SCR's are devices that switch the power to a boiler load to provide precise control resulting in holding tighter temperature or pressure. Other benefits are better reproducibility and consistency in the power to match demand loading.

Two of the current preferred options on boilers are remote management and SCR control. The former can be simple or complex. Basic or costly. Reimers has options for remote monitoring and control, but still allow site control at the boiler to over-ride. The SCR option is a way to ramp up or down power going to the vessel. Either feature contributes to cost savings at the bottom line. The photo show a Reimers steam boiler displayed at a Craft Brew and Distillers Expo.

Costs are priority for business operators. To assist those looking to reduce floor space and open up floor space Reimers offers a Model RT Boiler. This boiler very popular in the 60 to 210 KW input is approved for US and Canada by UL cUL and ASME certification.
