Hi everyone hopefully someone will be able to point me in the right direction with this.
I have a requirement for a steam trough that will need to constantly generate steam and I have been talking with local businesses but aren't able to get a complete overview of what is required and how to go about constructing it.
I have a stainless steel trough that is 820 mm long by 200 mm wide by 250 mm deep approximately 40 Liters (9 Gallons) which I can get a constant water feed to without any problems and am looking at a 15kW 400V Immersion Element that is 750 mm in length.
The area that I am having trouble is how to build in some safety. I understand that I would need some sort of thermostat and will need some method of supplying water so it doesn't run dry and also don't want it to be constantly adding water only when it reaches a certain level should it fill the tank again. So what I am hoping for is some help to understand exactly what it is that I need and how to go about building it.
Thank you for your time reading this and really look forward to getting some help.
Thanks,
Simon.
