Compact industrial boiler for steam and hot water applications

Experience reliable steam and hot water generation with this compact boiler, ideal for energy-efficient operations requiring rapid response and high-quality output in continuous, skid-mounted systems.

Generates Steam and Hot Water Efficiently

The Aalborg Mini 3-Pass from Alfa Laval is an industrial boiler that excels in delivering reliable steam and hot water. It features a compact skid-mounted design, enabling seamless installation and integration into existing systems. Its unique 3-pass heating surface arrangement ensures optimal water circulation and efficient thermal conduction, targeting noise reduction and minimal refractory use. Suitable for various industries such as food and beverage, paper mills, and petrochemical refining, it supports applications like milk pasteurization, pulp production, and crude oil distillation. Capable of producing 0.5-2.5 tons of steam per hour with up to 1.90 MW capacity, it operates effectively across tasks requiring precise temperature and pressure management. The Monobloc burner supports dual fuel options, enhancing flexibility. With an automated control system and integrated load management, it offers improved operational oversight. Energy efficiency is prioritized through low-weight, high-efficiency thermal insulation, reducing heating conduction. Designed according to EN 12953 or ASME Sect. I standards, it ensures durability and safety. Maintenance is streamlined through easy-to-access valve and inspection points, complemented by optional extras like automatic blow-down valves and feed water treatment systems for extended functionality.
