An electric steam generator turns a mains water supply into a steady flow of pressurized steam, and this bottom-mounted 12 kW unit puts out roughly 17 kg/h at a working pressure of ≤0.08 MPa — enough to drive bun steamers, steam cabinets and dishware disinfection in a central or high-street kitchen. The 304 stainless steel body and stainless heating elements stand up to constant water contact and wipe down fast, so it holds up in a wet, high-turnover back-of-house.

An intelligent control system runs the unit hands-off: it tops up water automatically, sounds a low-water alarm, cuts power once pressure reaches the set point and restarts when it drops, with overheat protection and self-diagnostics on top. From cold, this 12 kW model reaches working steam in about 12 minutes, and steam leaves at 100–110 °C.

  • 304 stainless steel body with stainless electric heating elements
  • Automatic water replenishment, low-water alarm and overheat protection
  • Auto shut-off at set pressure, auto restart when pressure drops
  • Self-cleaning function and automatic fault detection
  • DN25 steam outlet, DN15 water inlet, DN25 blowdown outlet

The same platform scales from 6 kW up to 36 kW, so a venue can match steam output to its cooking load. Backed by a 1-year parts warranty; contact us to confirm the right power rating and cabling for your site.

Frequently asked questions

How much steam does the 12 kW model produce?

The 12 kW version puts out about 17 kg of steam per hour at a working pressure of ≤0.08 MPa, with steam leaving the outlet at 100–110 °C. From cold it reaches working steam in roughly 12 minutes.

What power supply and cabling does this steam generator need?

It draws 12,000 W on a 380 V supply. The manufacturer specifies 6 mm² cable for the 12 kW model. Contact us to confirm the electrical requirements for your site.

What can I use an electric steam generator for in a kitchen?

It drives bun steamers, steam cabinets, pasta cookers and similar equipment, and also suits dishware disinfection. Typical settings include central kitchens, school cafeterias, commercial catering and spas.

Is the steam generator safe to run unattended?

The intelligent control system tops up water automatically, sounds a low-water alarm, cuts power once pressure reaches the set value and restarts when it drops. Overheat protection, automatic fault detection and a self-cleaning function reduce hands-on supervision.

What material is the steam boiler made from?

The body and the electric heating elements are Grade 304 stainless steel, which resists constant water contact and wipes down quickly in a wet back-of-house.

Does this steam generator come with a warranty?

Yes — it is backed by a 1-year parts warranty with technical support. It is certified to CCC and CE.

Is shipping included in the price?

For in-stock items — anything you can add to the cart — shipping is included in the listed price. For made-to-order items, delivery is either free (marked on the product page) or calculated when you place your order, based on destination and volume.

How long does delivery take?

In-stock items typically arrive within one to three weeks. Made-to-order items take three to six weeks, since we work directly with manufacturers and need time for production and logistics before shipping. Your assigned manager confirms a more precise estimate once your order is placed. Please note we can't be responsible for delays caused by customs clearance in the destination country.

Are import duties and taxes included?

In most cases, yes — we aim to ship Delivered Duty Paid (DDP), which means duties and import taxes are handled so you don't face extra charges on delivery. In rare cases we may ship Delivered Duty Unpaid (DDU), where you would settle import charges directly with the carrier — but only when agreed with you in advance.

Do your products come with a warranty?

Yes. Most of our equipment comes with a one-to-two-year manufacturer's warranty covering factory defects and technical faults under normal use; the specific term is stated on each product page. If a defect appears, we arrange a replacement or refund in line with our Exchange & Return Policy, and our team guides you through the claim step by step.
