Clayton provides a line of Steam Generators to provide superheated steam. These units use the same proven design as the basic Steam Generator that produces saturated steam, but with the addition to the helical coil of an integral superheater section, in which the steam is superheated. The use of the integral superheater section eliminates the need for a separately fired superheater.

Units can be provided in a configuration that allows the user the option of providing saturated or superheated steam. Superheated steam can be provided at pressures up to 850 PSIG (57 bar) and at temperatures up to 650 ºF (343 ºC).

These units are available to provide superheated steam in a variety of applications ? for industrial needs, as well as, as auxiliary boilers in power plants, and anywhere that superheated steam is needed.

Since superheater Steam Generators are essentially of the same design as saturated steam units, they provide the same advantages. The particular advantages as power plant auxiliary boilers include:

  • Rapid Start - from a cold state to full output in 5 to 20 minutes
  • The unit can be left in a cold stand-by condition
  • Fast Response to load swings
  • Compact Design
  • High Degree of Operator Safety ? Non-Explosive Design
  • Low Maintenance ? Single Burner
