A steam generator is a mechanical equipment that uses the heat energy of fuel or other energy resources to heat water into hot water or steam. It belongs to small equipment and is a kind of steam boiler. According to Boiler Safety Technical Inspection Regulations, a boiler whose water volume exceeds 30 litres belongs to pressure container, national special equipment. There is no need of water storage in the internal structure of modular steam generator concurrent pipeline and the water volume is...
Steam and hot water play an integral role at several stages of the textile manufacturing process. Much of the manufacturing process requires the use of steam or hot water produced by industrial boilers, textile engineering, bulk fabric production, garment manufacturing, or other textile processes.
Pre-treatment
There are several steps in this process, and some of them require both steam and hot water that is clean and pure, which requires an efficient steam boiler.

On a steam raising boiler there are three clear applications for level monitoring devices:
1) Level control - To ensure that the right amount of water is added to the boiler at the right time.
If the impurities in the boiler feedwater are not dealt with properly, carryover of boiler water into the steam system can occur.
Carryover can be caused by two factors:
In addition to water, other fluids can transport heat in industrial boilers, and thermal fluids usually replace water when higher temperatures are needed.
As their name implies, hot water boilers operate by being completely filled with hot water. On the other hand, steam boilers are usually only filled approximately 3/4th of the way full, while the top quarter is reserved for steam.
The packaged boiler is so called because it comes as a complete package with burner, level controls, feedpump and all necessary boiler fittings and mountings. Once delivered to site it requires only the steam, water, and blowdown pipework, fuel supply and electrical connections to be made for it to become operational.
Shell boilers may be defined as those boilers in which the heat transfer surfaces are all contained within a steel shell. Shell boilers may also be referred to as "fire tube" or "smoke tube" boilers because the products of combustion pass through the boiler tubes, which in turn transfer heat to the surrounding boiler water.
