Upon reaching the requested steam capacity, the inlet valve closes. If the
steam generation decreases below a certain percentage of the required
capacity, due to lowering of the water level (e.g. because of the
evaporation process or drainage), the inlet valve opens until the required
capacity is available again.
If the required steam capacity is lower than the actual output, the inlet valve
is closed until the desired capacity is achieved by lowering of the water level
(evaporation process).
Level monitoring
A sensor provided in the steam cylinder cover detects when the water level
gets too high. The moment the sensor comes in contact with water, the
inlet valve closes.
Drainage
As a result of the evaporation process, the conductivity of the water increases
due to an escalating mineral concentration. Eventually, an inadmissibly high
current consumption would take place if this concentration process were
permitted to continue. To prevent this concentration from reaching a value,
unsuitably high for the operation, a certain amount of water is perio dically
drained from the cylinder and replaced by fresh water.
Control
The steam production can be controlled with an external 010V continuous
controller or an external humidistat (24 VDC On/Off control).
