The service life of your industrial boiler is 15 years. Of course, there are a number of factors that may force you to replace your boiler before it reaches the 15-year mark. If there are obvious signs of wear and tear, you may not want to push the boiler much longer.
One of the most important accessories you can have for your steam boiler is a water softener, which serves several purposes and plays a crucial role in helping your boiler avoid malfunctions and run more efficiently. Let's go back to the basics and walk through how water softeners are used in steam boilers.
The boiler gas consumption calculation need the following parameters: gas calorific value and boiler thermal efficiency.
Theoretically, the gas consumption of boiler = boiler thermal capacity ÷ (calorific value of gas x boiler thermal efficiency )
Take the 1 tph steam boiler as an example:
= 600,000 cal / (8500Kcal * 0.98) =72m3/h, the 1 tph boiler's gas consumption per hour is about 72 cubic meters.
A fire tube steam boiler is a boiler where the combustion gases from the burner are channeled through tubes that are surrounded by the fluid to be heated. The boiler body is the pressure vessel and contains the fluid. In most cases, this fluid is water that will circulate for heating purposes or become steam for use in processing.
Each set of tubes through which the combustion gas passes, before making a turn, is considered a "step". Consequently, a three-step boiler will have three sets of pipes with the outlet located at the rear of the boiler.
In a water tube steam boiler, unlike a fire tube, water circulates inside the tubes. The heat that is generated and the combustion gases that surround the tubes heat the water that circulates inside them. Many water-tube boilers operate according to the principle of natural water circulation.
The capacity of this type of boiler can be enhanced by increasing the number of tubes in the boiler.
Steam boilers with a low NOx system are specially designed to minimize the environmental impact with the production of dry saturated steam. This type of boiler incorporates a stainless steel economizer with a cross flow integrated within the boiler and that, consequently, allows to reach maximum efficiency.In addition, it has a natural gas burner with low NOx emissions.
In superheated industrial water boilers, the water is pressurized and boiled to 100°C producing steam. These boilers are pyrotubular, with a high volume of water and a large temperature exchange zone. The designs can adapt to temperatures and pressures according to needs.
The air in the economizer and condenser has not drained yet when firing. The safety valves of economizer and condenser need to be turned on to exhaust steam. Return pipe valves also need to be turned on, enabling the steam in the economizer and condenser to return to softened water tank.
The outlet water temperature is so high that economizer and condenser will have vaporization phenomenon. The outlet water temperature of economizer and condenser need to be controlled.
The check valve of the...
