Steam Coils
Steam is a powerful heating medium capable of carrying massive amounts of thermal energy. However, it requires a robust coil design to handle high pressures, extreme temperatures, and the destructive potential of water hammer. Alpha Coil’s steam solutions are built for industrial-grade durability.
- Standard Steam Coils: Ideal for applications where the steam load is constant and the incoming air temperature is consistently above freezing. These coils feature heavy-walled copper or stainless steel tubing to handle the internal pressure, making them perfect for industrial drying, process heating, and large-scale building warmth.
- Steam Distributing (Non-Freeze): For fresh air intakes in cold climates, our “Non-Freeze” distributing coils are an engineering necessity. Utilizing a “tube-in-tube” design, the inner steam-carrying tube features precise orifices that distribute steam evenly across the entire length of the outer finned tube. This eliminates cold spots and ensures that condensate is quickly removed, preventing the catastrophic freezing and tube bursting common in standard designs.
