Micro Chemical Steam Boiler for Laboratory Use – Precise, Reliable, Compact
When a research team requires reproducible steam at the gram‑scale, a micro chemical steam boiler for laboratory use delivers the accuracy and safety that standard bulk equipment cannot. Engineered for bench‑top integration, this unit supplies clean saturated steam on demand, supporting analytical chemistry, synthesis, and process validation without the footprint of a full‑size boiler.
Key Benefits & Features
- Rapid steam generation: reaches 100 °C within 2‑3 minutes, minimizing wait times between experiments.
- Fine temperature control: ±0.5 °C stability via built‑in PID controller, essential for reproducible reactions.
- Compact footprint: 350 mm × 250 mm × 300 mm (L × W × H) fits standard laboratory benches and fume‑hoods.
- Low water consumption: 0.8 L hour⁻¹ operating rate reduces waste and utility cost.
- Safety‑first design: automatic low‑water shutdown, pressure relief valve, and insulated housing meet ISO 12100 safety principles.
- Material compatibility: 316 L stainless steel boiler and PTFE‑lined steam outlet prevent corrosion from aggressive reagents.
- Modular integration: optional digital I/O for PLC or LabVIEW connectivity enables seamless automation.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for a customized unit?
We accept single‑unit orders for research labs, but a typical MOQ of 5 pieces applies when you request custom pressure ratings or integrated PLC communication.
Can the boiler be adapted for non‑aqueous steam generators?
Yes. The heating element and internal seals can be swapped for compatible alloys (e.g., Hastelloy) to handle organic solvents, subject to a brief engineering review.
What is the typical lead time after order confirmation?
Standard models ship within 15–30 days. Fully customized configurations require 30–45 days, depending on component availability.
What warranty and support options are available?
All units come with a 12‑month limited warranty covering manufacturing defects. Extended service contracts and on‑site calibration can be arranged at the time of purchase.
