Industrial boiler heaters provide heat and power to various applications. These include agricultural soil steaming, steam generation, comfort heating, and sterilization. Many industries rely on these heaters as part of large-scale heating systems. Modern-day industrial settings often turn to electric boiler heaters for their needs. 

The design of boilers for large-scale industrial applications depends on several factors. These factors include system size, level of heat required, boiler efficiency, and boiler installation space. At Wattco, we manufacture boiler heaters in various sizes and dimensions, depending on your industry needs. Our team can also replicate flange heaters for your existing boiler system regardless of manufacturer or model.

There are benefits that you can expect to receive from using electric boiler heaters as part of industrial applications. Let’s take a look at these below. 

Benefits of Electric Boiler Heaters For Large Sites and Industrial Applications

Electric boilers have become popular for industrial use. They are a flexible option that can be easily integrated into various applications. These heaters also improve equipment life and ensure safe operation. Electric heaters are more efficient at heating water and steam than other alternatives. They are also more environmentally friendly because they meet carbon emission standards. 

Energy Efficiency

Energy efficiency for industrial boilers is dependent on the boiler’s design. In comparison to boiler heaters that use fossil fuels or gas, electric heaters are one of the most energy-efficient models. Approximately 99% of the electrical energy used is converted into heat. Electric boiler heaters can deliver maximum thermal output while expending minimal energy. 

Ease of Maintenance

Electric boiler heaters require less maintenance than other alternatives. These heating systems have very few components. They are designed without heat transfer tubes and do not require burner maintenance. Additionally, as they have zero carbon emissions, this also contributes to lower cost of maintenance fees. 

Ease of Installation

Electric boilers are compact devices making them much easier to install than other alternatives. As these devices do not require a chimney stack, flue pipes, or condensate pipes, their installation is quicker and cheaper. This is a significant benefit as part of industrial use, especially if you are restricted on space. 

Safety

From a safety point of view, electric boiler heaters are more effective when used as part of large-scale industrial applications. As these systems run on electricity, they offer fewer potential hazards. If an electric boiler heater malfunctions, a trip will be switched that will deactivate the heating system. 

Flange and Sheath Material Considerations

As mentioned above, an electric boiler heater can be made in various sizes and specifications depending on the application or your industry’s needs. However, there are considerations to keep in mind regarding flange and sheath materials depending on the application.
