UTILITY SERIES STEAM GENERATOR OPERATION PRINCIPLES
How it works . . .
Utility Series Steam Generators embody the famous SPEEDYLECTRIC Electrode Principle. Maximum efficiency and long trouble free operation has made the SPEEDYLECTRIC Electrode Steam Generator the favorite of leading companies.
Electrodes (A) are suspended in the generating tank. When electric current is turned on, heat is generated by the resistance of the water to passage of current between the solid metal electrodes. The water acts as the resistance element... There are no heating elements to burn out or replace.
No low water damage is possible, because should the water supply fail, the electrodes are progressively uncovered and less and less current passes. This automatically slows the rate of steam generation. When the tips become uncovered, no current can pass; hence, no low water damage can occur.
Scaling with the electrode steam generator presents a relatively minor problem as compared with fuel fired boilers in areas where scale forming water is used for make-up. In fuel fired boilers, extremely high tube or shell temperatures bake on solids thrown out as water flashes into steam.
In SPEEDYLECTRIC Electrode Steam Generators, heat and steam are generated by resistance of the water to the passage of electricity. No part of the generator is ever hotter than the water or steam itself therefore, no baking of the solids or residue.
