To guarantee the successful and efficient shell boiler operation, the user must:
1)Know the conditions, environment, and demand characteristics of the plant, and accurately specify these conditions to the boiler manufacturer.
2)Provide a boiler house layout and installation that promotes good operation and maintenance.
3)Select the control systems that allow the boiler to operate safely and efficiently.
4)Select the control systems that will support the boiler in supplying dry steam to the plant at the required pressure(s) and flowrate(s).
5)Identify the fuel to be used and, if necessary, where and how the fuel reserve is to be safely stored.
Boiler is a piece of equipment with large energy consumption. Therefore, both boiler manufacturers and purchasers regard energy conservation as an important indicator of boiler performance. The daily energy-saving measures of the natural gas fired boiler are mainly as follows.
The thermal oil heater, also called organic heat carrier boiler, provides heat energy for production by heating the heat medium oil. It can realize the high-temperature and low-pressure heating without constant water supply. What are the characteristics of the thermal oil heater?
The biomass-fired boiler is a kind of equipment that uses the combustion of renewable energy biomass to provide heat energy for the boiler. The biomass-fired boilers are widely used especially by the enterprises located in the areas with abundant biomass fuel.
In general, gas-fired boiler uses natural gas to heat water in order to provide heat source for underfloor heating and heating radiator, while condensing gas-fired uses condensation technology to recycle the thermal energy from the exhaust gas.
Normally a boiler is provided with two independent sensors for emergency low water level burner cut-outs. So this would never happen. However, if it does, don't take any chances! Shut off the burners immediately!
Before you start raising the level in the boiler you have to find out if any part of the furnace walls has been overheated. If you raise the level over a glowing steel-wall then the boiler might produce more steam than the safety valves can handle and a nasty explosion would be the result.
There are many opinions on the best way to clean a steam boiler. One of the oldest ways is to dissolve a pound of tri-sodium phosphate (TSP) and a pound of caustic soda (lye) in water and pour it into the boiler. Let it cook for a few hours and then drain the boiler. If you can't buy TSP in your town, try a commercial soap called MEX. It works well and will not damage the rubber gaskets found in some boilers. However, before you clean any boiler, check the manufacturer's instructions for their recommendations.
First of all, we should consider the thermal insulation effect. The main function of a gas-fired boiler is to provide heat energy. Good surface packaging material can avoid heat loss and save the fuel. It is suggested to choose glass wool which has a good insulation effect.
Secondly, we should consider the boiler appearance. It is best to choose a white color plate package when buying a gas-fired boiler, which not only has a beautiful appearance but also has a good insulation effect.
Finally, we should consider the boiler size. Wrong boiler size will cause some unnecessary troubles.
