Water/steam mixers
Alflow sells steam-water mixers for production of hot water using steam directly in the production area. The water/steam mixers are safe, cost-effective and easy to install. They only need to be connected to steam and water supply.
Our water/steam mixers are developed with a built-in safety function, which means that steam cannot escape if water pressure is not present at the same time.
What is a water/steam mixer?
The water/steam mixer is used to produce hot water using steam directly in the production area. It efficiently mixes steam and water in industrial processes, and is an ideal alternative to other less efficient and much more expensive heat exchangers.
The steam/water mixers are a cheap, instant source of hot water by utilising the existing steam and water supplies.
The mixers are extremely economical to operate, as virtually all of the heat energy in the steam is transferred to the water.
Advantages of water/steam mixers:
- Cheap, instant hot water
- Energy saving
- Requires no hot water tanks
- Safe, cost-effective, quiet operation and easy to install
- Only needs to be connected to steam and water supply

How to operate water/steam mixers
Our water/steam mixers are made of stainless steel, which ensures maximum hygienic requirements for all applications. They have no moving parts or electrical connections, they only need to be connected to steam and water supplies, and do not require electromechanical maintenance.
The water/steam mixers are available in two sizes depending on the flow rate and amount, and they can be equipped with a range of accessories for any application.
The water/steam mixers have a safety device to ensure that steam cannot accidentally escape. This safety device consists of a spring and a piston which move to the left to open the steam inlet valve.
There are also holes in the side of the piston to allow water to enter the chamber and be mixed with the steam. If at any time the water pressure fails or the outlet is closed, the steam pressure causes the piston to move to the right and the steam inlet valves to close.
In addition, check valves are fitted in the inlet connections to prevent the water from running into the steam supply and vice versa.
The temperature of the water at the outlet of the mixer is easily controlled by using water and steam valves which are mounted on the inlets. A built-in thermometer ensures setting and monitoring of the water temperature at the outlet. The temperature of the outlet water can be adjusted from 35°C to 95°C.
The water/steam mixers are also available in a version with rotary handles that, in addition to the steam/water mixture, only allow the steam to be used. By closing the water supply and adjusting the handle, the correct amount of steam is obtained. This version is an alternative to the standard version. If only steam is to be used, e.g. for sterilisation, this can be achieved by closing the water supply valve and turning the handle.
