Steam Generators

Model: PRPLSG

Steam Generators by Purple Heat Exchangers offer a cost-effective solution for facilities requiring reliable steam without the need for a large-scale boiler operation. These generators work seamlessly with thermal fluid systems, using hot oil to heat water and produce steam efficiently. Designed for safety and energy savings, they operate at lower pressures than traditional boilers, eliminating the need for a licensed operator. With their compact design, fast start-up, and precise temperature control, Purple Heat Exchangers' steam generators are ideal for a range of industrial applications, ensuring consistent performance and reduced operational costs.

Thermal Fluid Steam Generators: Efficient Steam Solutions

Purple Heat Exchangers’ thermal fluid steam generators provide an ideal solution for facilities needing steam without the high capital and operational costs of large-scale boilers. Paired with a high-efficiency thermal fluid heater and a High-Pressure Condensate Receiver (HPR), our systems deliver unmatched efficiency and reliability.


How It Works

The thermal fluid heater circulates hot oil through tubes within the steam generator, transferring heat to water in the shell to create steam. Unlike boilers, the tubes never exceed the oil’s temperature, eliminating the need for a boiler operator or separate fuel source, resulting in significant cost savings.

Advantages of Thermal Fluid Steam Generators Over Boilers

  1. Higher Safety: Operate at lower pressures, reducing risks associated with high-pressure systems.
  2. Improved Efficiency: Closed-loop systems enhance heat transfer and minimise energy losses.
  3. Precise Temperature Control: Ensure consistent and accurate heating for critical applications.
  4. Compact Design: Save space with smaller, efficient systems.
  5. Versatility: Use various heat sources, including hot thermal oil or plant steam.
  6. Faster Start-up and Shutdown: Respond quickly to changing heat demands, improving operational efficiency.

Sanitary Steam Generators

For applications requiring sanitary steam, we generate steam on the tube side of the exchanger, making it easier to clean and control. These systems are ideal for sanitary processes like equipment cleaning, ensuring compliance with industry standards.

Customisable Options:

  • Stainless alloys
  • Required steam volume
  • Sanitary compliance

High-Pressure Condensate Return Systems (HPR)

An HPR system enhances steam system efficiency by:

  • Collecting and treating condensate for reuse.
  • Returning high-temperature condensate to the feed system, preventing heat loss.
  • Saving 15–35% on fuel bills by conserving millions of BTUs annually.
