Product catalog summary
Construction
ACME GS Series Steam Superheaters are designed as auxiliary equipment for steam boilers, tailored to meet specific design and performance requirements. They are constructed according to ASME code, with options for National Board or CRN registrations. The coil design supports operating pressures up to 800 PSIG and temperatures up to 1200˚F. The superheaters feature flanged connections for easy installation and include a pressure safety valve. The casing can be made of Carbon Steel or Stainless Steel, insulated with H.T Ceramic Fiber and protected by an aluminum cover. Units are delivered prewired and prepiped, requiring only steam, gas, main power, and stack connections.
Burners
Burners are AGA or CGA listed and comply with UL, CSA, FM, IR, or other applicable gas train standards. They include an OEM burner control panel and an ACME Temperature and Control Panel with NEMA 12, 4, or 4X construction. The control panel features a main power switch, digital temperature controller, high limit protection, alarm circuits, and interlock connection for steam flow confirmation. Large gas burners can modulate from 25% to 100% output, while small burners have HI-LO-OFF capacity control. Burners are available for various gas mixtures and light oil #2 – diesel.
Specifications
The GS series superheaters are skid-mounted, factory-assembled, and pre-wired, including automatic controls and factory tests. They are designed to heat steam with a 10% allowance for losses and safety considerations. The pressure vessel is designed to ASME standards, with a minimum of 50 PSI and 100˚F above operating conditions. Inlet and outlet connections are class 300# flanges or higher, insulated with high-temperature material, and covered by aluminum or stainless steel sheets.
Power and Control Panel
The NEMA enclosure includes a disconnect switch, fused output to the burner panel, control transformer, on-off breaker, dual digital display electronic controller, thermocouple for steam temperature detection, and high steam temperature protection circuits. Additional features include a high stack temperature controller, alarm circuits, emergency stop button, and SPDT dry contacts for remote alarm supervision. Optional features include remote set point input, process output value retransmission, and remote start-stop capabilities.
Other ACME Products
ACME also offers stainless steel hot water or steam generators, electric steam superheaters, high-pressure steam testing stations, finned tubular air heaters, electric unit heaters, automatic scraper strainers, high-pressure steam boilers, high-temperature hot water generators, thermal liquid heaters, thermal storage units, and steam accumulators.

GS – GAS FIRED STEAM SUPERHEATERS SMALL UNIT ON FORKLIFT ACME GS Series Steam Superheaters are auxiliary equipment to steam boilers. They are built to meet the specific design and performance requirements of each application. Burners are AGA or CGA listed with UL, CSA, FM, IR or other gas train standards as requested or applicable. They are complete with an original OEM burner control panel. Pressure sections are built to ASME code. National Board or CRN registrations are available. The burner control panel is supplemented by the ACME Temperature and Control Panel of NEMA 12, 4 or 4X construction, incorporating the main power switch, digital electronic indicating temperature controller with high limit protection, audible and visual alarm circuits with manual reset, high temperature stack detector and interlock connection confirming steam flow. The coil design is available for operating pressures of up to 800 PSIG and temperatures up to 1200˚F. Steam flow is only limited by practical size considerations. The ACME Horizontal or Vertical Superheaters have inlet and outlet flanged connections oriented to suit local conditions for simplified field installation. A pressure safety valve is standard. The casing of the Superheater could be in Carbon Steel or Stainless Steel as required. It is further insulated with H.T Ceramic Fiber which in turn is protected by an aluminum cover. The ACME Superheater is delivered to site on a skid prewired and prepiped requiring only steam, gas, main power and stack connections. Two Service and Operating Manuals are provided with each unit. Special features such as weatherproof construction and stainless steel insulated casings for corrosive ambient conditions can be provided if required. While ACME Electric Steam Superheaters using SCR power controllers can track demand variations between 0 and 100%, the gas fired Superheater’s performance is limited by the gas burner’s capabilities. On large gas burners it is possible to modulate from 25% to 100% of output. Small size burners are provided with HI-LO-OFF capacity control. When the burner is switched OFF because of low load, the accumulated heat in the coil and casing provides a flywheel effect reducing any temperature variation. Burners for different gas mixtures are available. Also burners for light oil #2 – dies
