FRANK steam generators for industrial use
Discover the power of steam and work more efficiently and sustainably.
With FRANK steam generators you can optimize your industrial processes and get the most out of your production.
Individually tailored to your needs - electric, oil or gas heated.
Steam generator
Steam generator electrically heated
FRANK's electrically heated steam generators are the ideal solution for continuous use in industry. They offer high performance, are reliable and produce steam without emissions. The innovative continuous heating system has a significantly higher performance level than boiler systems and achieves faster steam generation. Thanks to the Siemens PLC control, our electrically heated steam generators can also be integrated into existing systems with robot systems.
Steam generator oil/gas heated
FRANK's oil or gas-fired steam generators are perfect for use in various industrial sectors. They are used in particular where the operation of electrically heated steam generators is not possible. They offer high efficiency, work reliably and are ideal for continuous operation. Thanks to the innovative continuous heating system, they have a significantly higher level of performance and generate steam faster than steam generators with boiler systems.
Series connection
Almost unlimited heating power
Thanks to our innovative instantaneous water heater system, FRANK steam generators can be easily connected in series and we can increase the heating output almost as much as you want. This gives you the opportunity to perfectly adapt the heating output to your individual needs.
Advantages of our steam generators
High performance
FRANK steam generators offer high performance that is suitable for a wide range of applications. Our electrically heated steam generators are available with up to 144 kW heating output as a single machine. However, since our steam generators can also be connected in series, the heating output can be expanded almost limitlessly.
Reliability
By using only high-quality components and know-how that has been built up over decades, we build steam generators that are reliable and durable.
Efficiency
FRANK steam generators use the power-to-heat process of our innovative instantaneous water heater. This makes them particularly efficient and consumes very little energy.
Very compact design
While steam generators from other brands sometimes take up a lot of space and have to be connected with extremely complicated pipe constructions, our systems are built to be very space-saving and can be integrated into your production with minimal effort.

Applications of steam generators
Sterilize
Steam sterilization is one of the safest methods for removing microorganisms from materials. This is why steam generators are used in many areas such as medicine, the food industry and research to sterilize surgical instruments, Petri dishes, medical devices and food such as canned goods.
Moisturize
In the food industry, steam is used in baking processes or to make pellets from animal feed, for example. The product is heated and moisturized at the same time. This prevents microscopic cracks or damage. Steam generators are also used to humidify the air in other areas such as book storage or in hospitals.
Clean
Hot steam cleans and disinfects surfaces gently, quickly and without chemical cleaning agents. It is therefore ideal for cleaning in the food industry, catering, textile cleaning and other areas where cleanliness and hygiene are important.

More information
FRANK offers steam generators that set new standards and are suitable for almost every application. Depending on the application, the right steam output plays a major role in obtaining the best possible solution for your individual application.
- Small plants with a steam production of up to 75 kg/h:
Ideal for supplying individual machines. - Medium-sized plants with a steam production of up to 192 kg/h:
For decentralized production processes in individual production areas where a certain amount of steam is required. - Large plants with a steam production of 200 kg/h or more:
For the central steam supply of entire production areas.
Steam generators heat water using electricity or a fuel such as oil or gas. Depending on the type of steam generator, a boiler, a heating coil or a continuous flow heater is used. When the boiling point is reached, the water is converted into steam and the steam generated can be made available for the desired application.
FRANK steam generators work exclusively with our innovative instantaneous water heater principle and therefore have a particularly high level of efficiency.
There are several types of steam generators, including:
- Oil or gas-fired steam generators: Oil or gas is burned to heat the water. They are mainly used where the technical requirements for an electrically heated device are not met.
- Electrically heated steam generators: These steam generators are heated with electricity. In combination with green electricity, they are significantly more environmentally friendly than oil or gas-heated systems and an important step towards sustainable production.
Steam generators are used in many industries including:
- Industry:
Steam generators are used in various industries, such as the automotive industry, packaging industry, paper industry, textile industry or chemical industry for heating, humidifying or cleaning. - Food production:
In the food industry, steam generators are used to heat and moisten food. Steam also plays an important role in cleaning machines and production facilities to maintain hygiene standards and ensure safety. - Healthcare and pharmaceutical industry:
In hospitals, the pharmaceutical industry and other sensitive areas, it is particularly important that surfaces and work equipment are free of contamination, bacteria and viruses. Here, steam generators are used primarily to sterilize medical devices and instruments.
Depending on the design, very high pressure can build up in a steam generator, for example in a steam boiler. Steam generators can therefore become potentially dangerous if they are not properly maintained.
Thanks to the instantaneous water heater principle, unlike conventional steam generators, our FRANK steam generators do not require a pressure vessel and therefore offer significantly increased safety.
Steam generators require regular maintenance to ensure safe and efficient operation. Regular maintenance tasks include:
- Cleaning:
The water heater and pipes must be cleaned regularly to remove contaminants. - Inspection:
The steam generator should be inspected regularly by a specialist to detect any possible damage or defects.
