Fulton Electric Steam Boiler require regular maintenance

The Fulton Electric Steam Boiler is an industrial-grade steam generator designed for ease of use and maintenance. It features an easy to access, insulated feed water tank that’s sized for maximum efficiency / lower fuel consumption as well as a rugged, efficient, welded pump assembly. Both the tank and pump are constructed of heavy gauge, stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance. An automatically controlled condensation return unit, equipped with a baffle plate that absorbs steam flash and pressure for safe steam expulsion through the vent to the atmosphere. The steam and water sludge is then drained away from the boiler through the 3″ x 4″ cleaning/inspection hole.

Fulton offers a full line of gas and oil powered steam boilers with capacities from 5 hp to 150,000 lbs/hour with design pressures up to 750 psi. A complete range of options and accessories are available to match your application needs.

In addition to providing a high quality steam, Fulton Electric Steam Boiler also offers an extensive array of industrial piping and controls. We can provide custom fabrications, piping kits, and installation services for both new construction and retrofit applications. Our steel fabrication capabilities include tanks, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, platforms, smokestacks, and custom engineered systems.

Fulton’s VSRT boiler is a robust and economical vertical multi-port boiler designed for operation in most industries. This boiler is a proven, durable system with over 100,000 units installed worldwide. The VSRT is a reliable, trouble-free system offering cost savings and operator peace of mind. Fuel to steam efficiencies of up to 84% and steam quality greater than 99%. The VSRT is a rugged and compact design with a pressure vessel thickness 30% greater than ASME requirements and heavy-walled Schedule 80 flue pipes for increased durability.

At the heart of the Fulton Electric Steam Boiler lies its innovative design, meticulously crafted to optimize functionality and performance. Unlike traditional boilers reliant on fossil fuels, this electric variant operates with unparalleled cleanliness and environmental friendliness. By harnessing electricity as its power source, it eliminates the need for fossil fuels, thereby significantly reducing harmful emissions and environmental impact. This not only aligns with the growing global emphasis on sustainability but also ensures compliance with increasingly stringent environmental regulations.

This fully-packaged, vertical steam boiler is a highly efficient, rugged system that is fabricated and engineered to ASME specifications as well as any applicable standards and codes. Its efficiency stems from the heating elements being totally immersed in water and the pressure vessel being fully insulated. Radiation losses are minimized and a meticulously calculated heat-to-steam ratio allows for rapid attainment of operating pressures. Fulton’s world-class electric steam boilers are environmentally conscious and emit zero NOx.

A standard feature of the Fulton Electric Steam Boiler is a large, easily accessible water level gauge sight glass for monitoring steam and water levels. When the water level reaches the bottom of the gauge, the LOW WATER ALARM will sound and the water pump will stop running. To prevent the occurrence of an alarm, the steam water level can be maintained by utilizing the blowdown system when necessary. Detailed instructions are provided in the operator’s manual.
