If the boiler gives overpressure indicator which affects boiler's safe operation, depressurization measures should be taken. However, please pay attention that depressurization can not be too fast. After the overpressure problem of steam boiler is solved, we should check the internal and external parts of boiler to ensure that everything is going well.
From the perspective of atomization mode, there are three kinds of burner used by boiler that are rotating cup atomization burner, pressure atomization burner and medium atomization burner.
1. During the start-up process of the burner, if the burner repeatedly alarms and locks, it should be found out the reason, find the fault and eliminate it, and then press the reset button to inherit the start. Note: The continuous press of the reset button should not exceed 10 seconds
2. If the burner is not successful in one combustion, the natural gas boiler induced draft fan should be restarted, and the second combustion can be started after 5 minutes of ventilation.
3. In the normal operation era, the burner close to the thermal equipment department (such as the connecting flange, etc.) will be very hot, to prevent the formation of burns. Do not place flammable materials in the vicinity to avoid causing fire.
4. During the operation of natural gas-fired boilers, it is necessary to closely supervise the working conditions of hot water circulation pumps and natural gas-fired boiler pressures, natural gas distribution bags, pipeline valves, pressure gauges, flow meters, and water
The explosion-proof door of the gas-fired boiler is opened or broken when the combustible gas explosion suddenly increases the pressure, it then releases high-pressure gas to reduce the damage to the gas-fired boiler body and also ensure
The function of the gas-fired boiler explosion-proof door is usually reflected when the gas-fired boiler is ignited or running due to improper operation. For instance, the furnace is not purged before ignition, the furnace is still not purged even the ignition cannot successfully be lit, the nozzle is leaking, the fuel is not completely burned, and extinguished failure to cut off fuel quickly, etc. all of them may cause the furnace and tail flue to explode. Installing explosion-proof door for gas-fired boiler is to release the pressure to avoid the accident from expanding and also to ensure the safety of the industrial steam boiler when a slight explosion occurs in the furnace or flue.
Here load means, amount of steam drawn from the boiler. So when the load increases, the specific volume of the steam in the boiler increases reducing the pressure. This inturn demands for more feed water and more amount of fuel to be burnt. So, for any boiler there will be a feed water level control system put in place to measure the water level in drum. As and when the level of water in the drum reduces, the controller sends a signal to the feed water pump to start and stops when the desired water level is reached. This way the steam generation continues to maintain the desired pressure.
A water level sensor fail on a steam boiler is extremely dangerous. The low water cut of should be tested daily. If the sensor fails the boiler could turn all the water into steam, leaving the boiler dry. Without water in the boiler the flame from the burner would heat up the heating surface to extreme temperatures and would crack and damage the inside of the boiler. But that’s not the dangerous part. If water added to boiler while it is extremely hot. Once water touches the extremely hot heating service, water would immediately start to evaporate into steam. When water evaporates it expands 18x it’s original size. The boiler would explode from the sudden increase in pressure from the inside. Some in some cases, boilers that have exploded out of a building and have landed 100s of feet away.
Missing insulation reduces the system’s efficiency. Insulation helps hold heat in the system, and when the heat can dissipate, more fuel is needed to maintain proper temperature and pressure.
Since missing insulation may not be visible, the best way to detect it is with a thermal imager. If you don’t have a thermal imager as a part of your building’s operations, a plumber or other professional likely will carry one. If your energy costs have increased without a rise in the amount you use the boiler, suspect missing insulation and call to have the system inspected with a thermal imager.
The coal-fired steam boiler is a forced circulation high-pressure single-tube DC boiler. Its operation process includes three processes: the combustion process of the fuel, the heat transfer process of flue gas to water and the vaporization process after water absorbs heat. In order to better control these different processes, the control system should make
the heat of pulverized coal combustion adapt to the requirements of steam load changes and dryness.
