Will the steam generator explode?

Anyone who has used a steam generator should understand that a steam generator heats water in a container to form steam, and then opens the steam valve to use the steam. Steam generators are pressure equipment, so many people in Kent will consider the explosion problem of electric heating steam generators.

So, will a steam generator explode?

Because steam generators do not require certificates or national testing, it is necessary for customers to worry about safety issues. However, Nobeth steam generators will not explode under normal circumstances.

Why doesn’t the steam generator need inspection and won’t explode? First of all, the size of the steam generator is very small, the water volume does not exceed 30L, and it is within the national inspection-free product series. Electric heating steam generators produced by regular manufacturers have multiple protection systems. Once a problem occurs, the equipment will automatically cut off the power supply. Product multiple protection system.

Water shortage protection: The equipment is forced to shut down the burner due to lack of water.
Low water level alarm: Low water level alarm, shut down the burner.
Overpressure protection: System overpressure alarm, shut down the burner.
Leakage protection: The system detects a power abnormality and forcibly shuts down the power supply.

These protective measures are heavily obstructed, so that if a problem occurs, the equipment will not continue to operate or explode.
However, as an important special equipment often used in daily life and production, steam generators have many safety problems during use. If we can understand and master the principles of these problems, we can effectively avoid them. safety incidents occur.

1. Steam generator safety valve: one of the most important safety devices of the boiler in the safety valve chamber, which can release and reduce pressure in time when overpressure occurs. The safety valve should be adjusted regularly before it can be put into use. During use, it must be manually discharged or functionally tested regularly to ensure that there are no problems such as rust and jamming that may cause the safety valve to malfunction.

2. Steam generator water level gauge: The water level gauge of the steam generator is a device that visually displays the water level position in the steam generator. A water level higher or lower than the normal water level on the water level gauge is a serious operating error and can easily lead to an accident. Therefore, The water level meter should be flushed regularly and the water level should be closely observed during use.

3. Steam generator pressure gauge: The pressure gauge directly reflects the operating pressure value of the boiler and instructs the operator never to operate at overpressure. Therefore, the pressure gauge requires calibration every six months to ensure sensitivity and reliability.

4. Steam generator sewage device: The sewage device is a device that discharges scale and impurities in the steam generator. It can effectively control the steam generator to prevent scaling and slag accumulation. At the same time, you can often touch the rear pipe of the sewage valve to check whether there is any leakage problem. .

5. Normal pressure steam generator: If the normal pressure boiler is installed correctly, there will be no overpressure explosion problem. However, normal pressure boilers must pay attention to anti-freeze in winter. If the pipelines are frozen, they must be manually thawed before use, otherwise the pipelines will explode. It is crucial to block overpressure explosions.
