Vitomax HS: A compact and efficient steam boiler

Due to their design and equipment level, Vitomax industrial/commercial steam boilers deliver the best possible conditions for meeting individual customer requirements in a broad range of applications. The detailed design of the Vitomax boilers and the company's vast experience in building industrial boilers ensure superior quality, high operational reliability and a long service life.

The comprehensive Vitomax product range from Viessmann includes steam boilers with a continuous steam output of up to 31.5 t/h with an operating pressure of 6 to 25 bar.

Our versatile Vitomax high pressure steam boilers are designed to fully meet the needs of large industrial concerns.

The benefits at a glance:

  • Energy-saving thermal insulation
  • Large steam chamber with low load
  • High efficiency of up to 95.5 percent
  • Water-cooled burner entry point at the front and water-cooled rear reversing chamber
  • Low-stress design

Product features

The boiler provides a continuous supply of steam at an output of 0.5 to 31.5 t/h whilst its operating pressure extends from 6 to 25 bar.

The lateral arrangement of the flame tube results in a highly compact boiler design that meets all the requirements for efficient steam generation.

The Vitomax HS high pressure steam boilers is the ideal solution for large industrial concerns, such as those involved in food processing, fertilizers, construction material, paper, beverage, chemical and pharmaceuticals, as well as hospitals and refineries.

No concrete is used for the optional innovative burner entry point in Vitomax boilers. This means it is water-cooled, and wear and maintenance-free, eliminating the need for replacement during the service life of the boiler. The water cooling guarantees a constant temperature at the burner head –– the otherwise usual reflection from a refractory lining (which causes thermal NOx to form) does not occur.

The burner entry point and the rear flue gas reversing chamber of the Vitomax HS are water-cooled. Therefore the energy in the flue gases is used exclusively for steam generation.

All Vitomax HS high pressure steam boilers are suitable for the combustion of up to 100 % hydrogen, subject to compliance with our conditions for the use of H2.

The spacing between the individual smoke tubes, as well as from the smoke tubes to the boiler casing and to the flame tube, comply with statutory requirements. The shearing force on the end face floors caused by different linear expansion in the smoke tubes and the flame tube is therefore extremely low. This design guarantees a long service life for the Vitomax HS.

To make it particularly easy to service and maintain, just like all other Vitomax boilers, the Vitomax HS is equipped with sufficient inspection and access ports for carrying out important checks inside the boiler. As a result, Vitomax high pressure steam boilers achieve the longest possible inspection intervals. Easy to open boiler doors and a cleaning door at the end of the boiler also ensure that maintenance is simple and contribute to low running costs.

  • And many others, e.g. biogases/bio-oils or animal fats
  • Food processing industry
  • Fertiliser industry
  • Building material industry
  • Paper industry
  • Beverage industry
  • Chemical industry
  • Pharmaceutical industry
  • Hospitals
