Electric steam boiler for melt wax

The bee-keeping uses steam for industrial process in the hives

The ETE technical departement has calculated and designed a steam boiler for wax extraction.

It has been installed a electric steam boiler, it works to 130ºC and has 48kw – 400V III with a 64 kilos steam production per hour.

The client decided to install an electric steam boiler manufactured by ETE because of it’s simply installation, no odor that may contaminate the production, zero CO2 emissions, no explosion or fire risk.

The energetic costs have been changed in the last 20 years and the actual trend is to change the old combustion boilers for electric steam boilers ETE.

The electric steam boiler Ete has a 5 year guarantee. There are thousands working 24/7 for more than 30 years without breakdowns.

Heat a hothouse located in UAE

The agrarian hothouse’s production has been extended around the world and in the deserts with long solar hours are good places to produce food with low costs.

During the day the sun heat activate the production, the hothouse receives the radiation maintaining the right temperature for the seeds growing.

During the night it is necessary to give heat to compensate the heat lost.

Our technical department has calculated and designed the suitable electric boiler to produce heat for a hothouse in the UAE.

The electric boiler is given service to a 2 hothouses of 20.000 square meters each one and 4,5 meters ceiling height.

The indoor temperature required is 18ºC when the outdoor temperatures reach 4ºC.

The electric boiler designed by ETE is the model GP 1720/30 – 2000kw – 400 V III.

It has been planned that the boiler works with a 15ºC temperature increase (75ºC /90ºC).

The hothouses should thoroughly revise the heating production and change the old boilers for ETE electric boilers to reduce the energy cost in at least a 60%.

If you are interested in save money and get prices more competitive give us the square meters, ceiling height and temperatures indoors and outdoors. With this information we will calculate the power of the electric boiler for your hothouse.

Never take as reference the power of the combustion boiler; it is usual that its power is over dimensioned.

How to calculate the power for heating

If you want to calculate the necessary power to heat your home, in this article you will find the formula. You will realize if your installation has been over dimensioned.

When a heating installation is over dimensioned this cost increase unnecessarily.

The formula to calculate your heating installation is as follows:

We use a coefficient for it: 30

1.- Define the square meters that you want to heat (do not include garage, box room or other space that is not necessary to heat).

2.- Ceiling height

3.- Minimum outside temperature (during winter -3ºC average). If this average is more the coefficient has to be reduce and otherwise. For example:

Minimum outside temperature: -3ºC ….coefficient 30

Minimum outside temperature: -8ºC ….coefficient 35

Minimum outside temperature: 5ºC ….coefficient 22

The following step is multiply the square meters by the ceiling height, and then you will get the cubic meters.

The heat necessities for 100 square meters home with 2,5 meters ceiling height and a -3ºC minimum outside temperature is 7500W. We consider this power has a 30% security margin in case the home does not have a good isolation.

As I just told the isolation is an important factor like as the doors and windows do not let the heat escape through it.

But, what is a good thermal isolation? It is when in summer the room temperature does not increase more than 25ºC during the day with an external temperature of 35ºC or more.

If with this formula you have discovered that your installation is over dimensioned and you are expending a lot of money unnecessarily it is the moment to change the boiler to save money.
