Groen CNEB/24 HyPlus Steam Generator - Cabinet, 208V 3-Phase

The CNEB/24 is a steam generator in a cabinet base, built to supply steam to equipment above it rather than to cook anything itself. It is an electric boiler, and on Groen's electric sheet the 24 in the model number is the kilowatt rating: 24 kW, which the sheet puts at 2.2 boiler horsepower. It is specified where a line needs its own steam and the building has none to give it.

Being electric, the generator brings no combustion air and no flue into the question. The output is set by the rating rather than by a burner adjustment, so what is installed is what is available. The cabinet base is the whole assembly: boiler, controls and enclosure in one position under the equipment it feeds.

The cabinet is stainless with a louvered lift-off front panel, the exterior polished uniformly to a #3 finish, and the base itself is 24 in wide. Control faces are a smudge-resistant polyester film. The panel carries a power ON switch, a RESET light, a start switch, a water level sight glass and a cabinet-mounted pressure gauge, so the state of the boiler is read rather than guessed. A low water sensor and a pop safety valve shut it down on low water or over-pressure. It is listed to UL and ASME.

This build is wired for 208 V three phase, which is a hard-wired connection rather than a plug. The louvered panel has to stay clear for the enclosure to breathe. Treated water is what keeps an electric boiler out of trouble, and the sight glass is there to be looked at.

Features

• Electric operation — no combustion air into the room.
• Low water is signalled — the fault is seen before a callout.
• UL listed — the listing expected on a hard-wired appliance.
• Jacket pressure gauge — the jacket state is read, not guessed.
• Enclosed cabinet construction — the generator is out of the aisle.
• Wired for 208 V three-phase — the SKU is the circuit.
• Safety valve fitted — relief independent of the controls.
• Sight glass on the jacket — a direct reading before firing.
