Therma-Steem XL1 Industrial Steam Cleaner – 155 PSI, 480V

Therma-Steem Industrial XL1 — 155 PSI Continuous Steam for 24/7 Industrial Operations

Made to order 2-4 weeks lead time

The Therma-Steem XL1 is a fixed-installation industrial steam cleaner built for continuous round-the-clock operation. At 155 PSI and 365°F with a 20kW incoloy heating element, it generates 55 lbs of steam per hour from a 5-gallon stainless steel boiler backed by a 7-gallon stainless steel reserve tank. The continuous-fill design means zero downtime between refills. Requires 480V, 3-phase power (26 amps) — for facilities that cannot provide 3-phase, see the propane Ultra series.

Therma-Steem XL1 Steam Output, PSI, and Operating Conditions

The XL1 targets industrial environments where steam needs to reach inside conveyors, food processing equipment, and machinery with complex geometry — the 25 ft stainless steel hose with gun and multiple brush configurations allow access where pressure washing cannot reach.

• 155 PSI output pressure — 10.7 bar; penetrates grease, biofilm, and industrial grime on equipment surfaces and in crevices
• 365°F maximum temperature — above the 212°F thermal sanitization threshold by 153°F; kills most pathogens on contact without chemicals
• 55 lbs of steam per hour — 20kW incoloy heating element maintains consistent output during extended continuous operation
• Continuous-fill design — 7-gallon reserve tank feeds the 5-gallon boiler without shutdown; fill the reserve while steam generation continues
• 97% dry vapor steam — low moisture content allows use around electrical components and in food processing environments without surface flooding
• All stainless steel construction — 5-gallon boiler with lifetime warranty; 10" rubber wheels and 5" locking wheels for positioning stability

XL1 Applications and Environments

Food processing facilities use the XL1 for conveyor cleaning, food contact surface sanitation, and equipment degreasing where chemical residue cannot remain — the 97% dry vapor leaves no chemical contamination and meets USDA requirements for food processing environments. Automotive manufacturing plants and airline maintenance facilities clean engine components, chassis areas, and ground service equipment with the 25 ft hose and rotating brush attachments. Military maintenance depots and KOSHER-certified food operations (where chemical sanitizers create compliance issues) use it as a primary sanitation platform. The 24/7 operational design suits three-shift production environments where downtime is not an option.

XL1 Steam Temperature, PSI, and Dry-Steam Output

Boiler temperature reaches 365°F (185°C) with 155 PSI output pressure (10.7 bar). Steam dryness: 97% — only 3% moisture content in the vapor, critical for electrical component cleaning and avoiding surface flooding. The XL1 is not an OSHA-classified steam pressure vessel (operates below the threshold requiring third-party pressure vessel certification). Electrical requirement: 480V, 3-phase, 26 amps — also available in 220V or 575V upon request. Ships with a full accessory kit including 25 ft SS hose, trigger gun, multiple brush types, squeegee, wand extensions, microfiber cloths, and safety equipment.
