High-frequency electricity passes through a coil, creating a rapidly alternating magnetic field. When this field passes through the metal boiler body, it induces "eddy currents" that generate heat instantly within the metal itself.

Standard electric boilers use resistive heaters that are in direct contact with water. In an Induction Steam Boiler, the heating source (the coil) is separated from the water by a metal wall, significantly reducing the risk of electrical leakage and scaling on the heating source.

Yes. Induction steam boilers are compact, modular, and require only a water inlet, a 3-phase electrical connection, and a steam outlet to begin operation.

One of the biggest advantages is speed. While traditional boilers take 20–40 minutes to reach pressure, an induction boiler can produce steam in as little as 3 to 5 minutes from a cold start.

These units are incredibly efficient, typically achieving 98% to 99% efficiency. Since the heat is generated directly in the metal of the boiler, there is virtually no transmission loss.

Yes. Due to the rapid heat transfer and lack of "pre-heating" time, induction boilers can save between 20% to 30% on electricity bills compared to traditional resistive electric boilers for intermittent processes.

Standard industrial induction boilers are designed for pressures of 7 kg/cm² to 10 kg/cm², but they can be customized for higher pressure requirements.

They are ideal for industries requiring high purity and fast response times:

• Pharmaceuticals: Sterilization and lab work.
• Food & Beverage: Cooking, pasteurization, and cleaning.
• Garment Industry: Industrial ironing and curing.
• Hospitals: Laundry and equipment sterilization.

Yes. Because there is no combustion and the heating surface is typically high-grade stainless steel, the steam is clean and free from fuel-related contaminants.

Absolutely. Their modular design allows you to connect multiple units in parallel to meet higher steam demands while maintaining the flexibility to turn off individual units during low-load periods.

Scaling is significantly reduced. In resistive boilers, "hot spots" on the elements attract scale. In an induction boiler, the heat is distributed uniformly over a larger surface area, which minimizes scale buildup and extends the unit's life.

With proper water treatment, these units can last 10 to 12 years. The induction coils themselves have a very long life as they do not "burn out" like traditional resistive elements.

Yes. There is no open flame, no fuel storage risk, and no exhaust gases. Furthermore, the heating coil is electrically insulated from the water-carrying parts, eliminating the risk of electric shocks.

Maintenance is minimal. It includes periodic "blow-down" to remove water impurities, checking electrical connections, and ensuring the cooling fan for the induction electronics is clean.

Pricing depends on the capacity (measured in kW or kg/hr). For a standard industrial model, prices typically start at approximately ₹900,000.00 for small units (up to 50 kg/hr). Larger, high-capacity industrial systems can range from ₹9,00,000 to ₹12,00,000 depending on the automation level and pressure rating.

Induction technology involves complex power electronics and high-frequency inverters. While the "sticker price" is higher, the lower electricity consumption and reduced maintenance usually make it the cheaper option over its total lifecycle.

The cost is determined by the kW rating, the material of construction (e.g., SS 316 for food grade), the automation level (PLC/Touchscreen controls), and whether the unit requires IBR certification.
