Industrial Laundry Tumbler Steam Radiators

Steam radiators work by boiling water to create steam. That steam then travels up a set of pipes into the radiator, which in turn, heats up the room via radiation and convection. As the steam travels through the unit, it slowly cools down and turns into condensation.It's like a dial on any other type of heater. Turn the valve counterclockwise to increase the heat and clockwise to reduce it. The thermostatic valve controls the amount of heat escaping the radiator. Setting it at 0 prevents heat from escaping, but it doesn't turn off the water or electrical flow.As shown above, the main parts of a steam radiator consist of two valves, the supply (or "radiator") valve and air (or "vent") valve, and the cast-iron radiator body. When the boiler is triggered and steam is generated, it flows from the boiler by a series of pipes and enters the radiator body through the supply valve.
