HGA2 750-01 High Temperature Superheated Steam Generator (1kW)

High temperature superheated steam-air or steam-gas output. Superheated steam is a odorless high temperature gas (not to be confused with hot water mist). Several options available and recommended. Voltage: 110VAC Frequency: 50/60 HZ Current: Approx. 9 Amps @ 110VAC Power Consumption: ~1000 Watts Potential uses: For drying, cleaning, layering, epoxy drying and other film uses where superheated steam is required at one atmospheric pressure. Ideal for steam drying or steam oxidation. Product has uses in surface technologies, cleaning technologies, drying technologies, curing technologies, nano-technologies. Attempt use also for precipitating crystals of several small sizes including nano crystals from solutions. Precipitation droplet sizes may be controlled by controlling rate of cooling, impingement conditions and type of surface. High Humidity Control: Steam temperature and the relative mass of moisture in steam-air mixture (specific humidity) depends on water valve setting and air inflow setting. This unique device can give more than 40% specific humidity at temperatures greater than 100C (compare with a specific humidity of less than 3% in fully saturated air at room temperature i.e. air with RH=100%). Typical settings for Standard HGA2: (Full power of 1 kW): Air 1.4 CFM (inlet at ~30C) and water 7.5 ml/minute (inlet ~30C) yields steam-air temperature of about 450-464C. Air 1.4CFM (inlet at ~30C) and water 8.9 ml/minute (inlet ~30C) yields steam-air temperature of about 130-160C. Air 1.4CFM (inlet at ~30C) and water 17.0ml/minute (inlet ~30C) yields steam-air temperature of about 120-150C. The values above should be considered as approximate. Your results may vary with unit and the type of use. The unit come with a manual which has comprehensive valve setting data (manual avilable only with purchase). Safety precautions must be taken when dealing with hot gasses. Please write MHI for a free manuscript on superheated steam or refer to any standard book on steam thermodynamics. The stand option is highly recommended. The stand option comes with a thermocouple which can be positioned by the user to measure the steam temperature at a location of choice.
Safety: DO NOT USE WITH COMBUSTIBLE LIQUIDS. DANGER OF SUPERHEATED STEAM SHOULD BE WELL UNDERSTOOD. PLEASE USE GLOVES, GLASSES AND HARD HAT. PROTECTIVE CLOTHING REQUIRED. STEAM CAN PENETRATE CLOTHES. Patents applied and pending. Detailed installation and user manual provided with product. Some lead time, about 3 to 4 weeks, on this product may be encountered because of the high demand. HGA with the Steam thermocouple with stand attachment. Approximate height is 12 inches (30.48 centimeters). Unit is approximately 15.5 long (39.37 cm). Control thermocouple for the hot air generator part is included. Steam output temperature thermocouple and bracket is sold separately or user may provide their own on their part. Electrical 110-120V 50/60Hz supply required for this unit. 1KW system requires compressed air input.
