Therma-Kleen TSXL2 Industrial Steam Cleaner – 155 PSI, 365°F, 480V 3-Phase
Therma-Steem TSXL2 Industrial Steam Cleaner — Continuous-Fill Dry Vapor Steam for Food Processing and Heavy Industrial Applications
The Therma-Kleen Therma-Steem TSXL2 is a 3-phase continuous-fill industrial steam generator rated at 155 PSI and 365°F — the high-pressure, high-temperature configuration used in food processing plants, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and industrial equipment cleaning where chemical sanitizers leave unacceptable residue or require EPA-regulated disposal. The 5-gallon stainless steel boiler and 7-gallon reserve tank enable uninterrupted operation: water feeds from the reserve into the active boiler without shutdown, making it suitable for extended production-line cleaning windows where downtime is measured in minutes. Designed and manufactured in the USA with an all-stainless steel body and 30 kW incoloy heating element.
TSXL2 Steam Output, Pressure, and Continuous-Fill System
The 155 PSI output pressure and continuous-fill reserve tank are the two specifications that determine whether this machine is correctly sized for a production cleaning application versus a unit that requires frequent stops.
- 155 PSI output pressure at 365°F — removes carbonized grease, baked-on residue, and industrial contamination that lower-pressure steam cannot penetrate; 365°F exceeds the thermal threshold for most industrial pathogens and biofilm
- Continuous-fill operation via 7-gallon reserve tank — operator adds water to the reserve while the boiler runs; no production stop for refills during extended cleaning windows
- 82 lbs/hr steam production from 30 kW incoloy element — incoloy heating element resists scale buildup and corrosion from mineral-heavy water supplies; higher output than units using standard stainless elements
- All-stainless steel body with 5-gallon boiler — resists corrosion in wet industrial environments; stainless construction survives chemical spray-down cleaning between shifts
- 10" rubber wheels and 5" locking casters — 10" wheels clear floor drains and debris on factory floors; locking casters secure the unit during high-pressure hose operation to prevent drift
- 25 ft stainless steel hose with steam gun — stainless hose handles the full 155 PSI output without degradation; 25 ft reach covers most equipment footprints without repositioning the unit
TSXL2 Applications and Environments
Food processing facilities — meat packing plants, dairy operations, commercial bakeries, and beverage bottling lines — use the TSXL2 to sanitize conveyors, fillers, and process equipment without chemical residue that would require rinse cycles or HACCP documentation. Pharmaceutical manufacturing environments with equipment cleaning validation requirements use dry steam sanitization to meet CFR 21 Part 211 cleaning standards in areas where chemical agents are contraindicated. Industrial equipment maintenance in printing facilities, plastics manufacturing, and automotive production lines uses 155 PSI steam to remove dried inks, mold release agents, and carbonized lubricants. The 480V 3-phase electrical requirement limits deployment to industrial facilities with appropriate service — the unit is not suitable for standard 120/240V commercial circuits; 220V and 575V configurations are available on request.
TSXL2 Steam Temperature, PSI, and Safety Systems
The TSXL2 produces dry vapor steam at 155 PSI and 365°F boiler temperature — above the 212°F threshold required for thermal sanitization and well above the 160°F contact time threshold for most industrial pathogen inactivation. Three integrated safety systems prevent overpressure and low-water events: a low water alarm signals refill before the boiler runs dry, a DIN-standard temperature controller maintains set-point precision, and a high-pressure limit switch cuts power if system pressure exceeds the design maximum. No NSF or chemical certification is required for steam-only sanitization in food service and pharmaceutical environments when documentation records contact temperature and dwell time.
