Steaming Unit

We offer three models of steaming units. The difference lies in the volume they can deliver. The smallest delivers a maximum of 2.4 m³/h, the medium model 3.0 m³/h, and the largest 3.6 m³/h. The smallest and largest units are equipped with Wilo pumps, while the medium-sized unit uses a Grundfos pump. We keep parts in stock for the smallest unit, but we can also supply the larger ones with slightly longer lead times.

All variants can be connected to almost any number of motorized ball valves. On the short sides of our steaming units, we have a frame on each side that can easily be screwed on, where motorized ball valves and any measuring equipment can be mounted.

With our steaming units, you can choose the temperature you want to inject into the kiln. This water, which we call steaming water, then reaches the motorized ball valves, which the control system regulates to determine where the water should be used. We also offer an additional function that allows measuring the temperature and flow of the water injected into the different timber kilns.

If we follow the water from the cold water supply, we assume the cold water has a pressure of about 5 bar. It first passes through one or two water filters, then reaches a pump that increases the pressure by about 20 bar. After the pump, the pressure is about 25 bar and then passes a safety valve that releases at 30 bar. The water then reaches a plate heat exchanger where the temperature is raised to any desired level, usually between 60–105°C.

Our steaming units also have a function where the control system can prevent the pump from starting. We have built-in sensor ports that allow the control system to determine whether the heat exchanger is intact or not. We do not want boiler water to be sprayed into the timber kilns or steaming water to be forced into the boiler system, and our steaming unit together with an advanced control system can handle this. There is also a bypass function: if the pump fails, the water can be routed past the pump, allowing about 25% of the water to reach the kilns.

We specialize in products for wood dryers. Our experience with dryers dates back to the early 1970s, when our parent company, Nibro AB, started its business by assembling wood dryers.
