Steam boilers use a contained heat system to generate steam. The steam travels through pipes in the building’s walls where they emerge at radiators in heating systems. The radiators warm from the steam’s heat. As the steam gives off its heat, it condenses back to liquid water and returns to the tank. A boiler system of this type that does not allow outside water sources is a closed system and is highly efficient for using all the condensed water. An open network may be required in operations where the steam or water gets contaminated in such a way that it cannot return to the boiler for reuse.
Low-pressure boilers operate at a lower pressure and reach lower temperatures than high-pressure steam boilers. Water in low-pressure boilers is not heated beyond 250ºF, and the steam pressure does not exceed 15 psi (pounds per square inch).
Many business units are in contact with low-nitrogen boilers for the first time, and they do not have a good grasp of how to operate correctly and effectively extend the service life of the boiler. ZOZEN Boiler specializes in the production of low-nitrogen boilers, summarizing the following three techniques for extending the life of low-nitrogen boilers, helping users to better operate low-nitrogen boilers.
The automatic boiler water level controller is mainly composed of hardware and software parts to complete the functions of the control system. The hardware part is mainly composed of the water level detection circuit, drive circuit, water level indication circuit, pressure automatic control simulation, manual control, etc. The software part is mainly composed of the programs written in assembly language.
The quality of the water used to produce the steam in the boiler will have a profound effect on meeting the objectives such as safe operation, maximum combustion and heat transfer efficiency, minimum maintenance and long working life.
In the operation of gas-fired steam/hot water boiler, it need continuous water supply to ensure the water volume in the drum. Once water shortage occurs, it will cause the boiler dry burning problem, which will further result in the boiler failure and other problems.
