Could this be used for a 15HP Steam Boiler?

Normally, you would use a twin tank water softener to supply a boiler - this so that you will always have an uninterrupted 24/7 supply of soft water - required when supplying make-up to a boiler. A more suitable one for this application 15 HP application would be found by searching Amazon using ASIN B000GEBZC2. We are assuming that you feed pipe size is ¾".

It can be used to soften water for any purpose. You can feed a boiler from the treated water from this water softener. It is a good idea to use softened water for a boiler system to protect the boiler.

Resistance of the heater, R = (240 V)^2 / 5500 W = 10.47 ohm Current draw, I = V/R = (110 V) / (10.47 ohm) = 10.50 amp Heating Power at 110 V, P = (110 V)^2 / (10.47 ohm) = 1155 W, 21% of rated power. Normal wiring will be fine, just make sure its rated above 10.5 amp, 14 AWG or thicker should be sufficient. A standard 15 amp circuit will work, but your water will heat up slowly, 7.6 seconds per gallon per degree Fahrenheit At 240 V your heat up rate would be 1.6 seconds per gallon per degree Fahrenheit

I've never tried it...but I think it would work based on the amount of steam the unit produces. It's not a rolling boil but it is a good, steady steam. Good luck!

I do believe it is limited to 15 amps which may not work well with a heating element. It is also not designed to be out in the weather.

No. You should use 14/2 for 1500 watts. You could use it with 750 watt heater but a direct connection to the heater is needed-should not be used as an extension for the heater.

yes it will. a 15 k will draw about 16 amps.this unit puts out about 30 amps

I have one on a 15 hp kohler and it works great. Only had it for this summer so far it works great.

I believe that's way too big for this cooktop. I use a 11" and that works fine. 15" is alot larger then the surface and cast iron is very heavy as well.

I believe you would overwork the boiler if you expect such high capacity. There is no attachment for a direct water line. the machine takes some getting use to to get good crema

I don't know anything about boilers but I bought this to use a 220v Chinese headphone amp and it works fine. I don't know enough about electricity, though, to know if the demands of your unit are so different that it might not work. But for my LIttle Dot MK III headphone amp, it does the job.

I wouldn't use it in anything over 15gal. It is very unreliable with out a solenoid valve.

If you have 1/4 psi at the point of use. I think it will work fine. My run was too long and ended up removing 16 nozzles. And now it runs fine, just less btu's.

It depends on the draw of the pump. If the pump does not draw more than the 6 or 15 amps (depending on the model you purchase) then you should be good.

I think this adapter has #14 wire so you could safely use a 15 amp fuse in it. #14 wire can not handle 20 amps continuously so it would eventually burn open.

Yes, as long as it is less than 15a. But I'd look elsewhere. Mine was junk and quit after a month or so.

If the 15 amp device is something big to start, It will not. I cant use my 15 amp compressor (Ridgid) using this 3500 W Champion Generator.

I don't see why not, but I used this model for a jacuzzi heater, so it did it's thing at the higher end of the range. You would need an external regulator I believe, as this one has an internal device that can't be accesssed or set.
