How to choose the steam boiler for drying room?

26 Aug 2022

Steam is popular because of its high thermal efficiency, energy saving and environmental protection. It is used in various industries, such as drying room. However, there are different types of steam boilers. How to choose the steam boiler for drying room?

 

In places where food is processed, there is usually a drying room, and the drying room has a great demand for steam, so a steam boiler is an ideal choice to provide steam. However, you should also know how big a steam boiler to buy, otherwise, if it is too small, it can't meet the required amount of steam, and if it is too big, it will cause waste.

 

Drying room is mainly used for drying food, vegetables, paints, etc. In this process, a lot of steam is needed, but the pressure requirement is not high. In view of this feature, it is certain that some low-pressure steam boilers are suitable for the drying room, such as those with rated working pressure of 1.0 or 1.25MPa.

 

For the selection of steam boiler in drying room, ZOZEN recommended WNS series gas steam boiler, which is a shell-type wet back three-pass fire tube structure. The flame burns in a large combustion chamber with slight positive pressure, full extension, low combustion heat load and high combustion heat efficiency, which effectively reduces the smoke exhaust temperature, saves energy and reduces consumption, and is more economical to use. The corrugated furnace liner and threaded smoke tube structure are adopted, which not only improves the heat absorption strength of the boiler, but also meets the needs of heat expansion of the heat exchange surface, which is scientific and reasonable. The boiler capacity covers 1-20 tons, and the pressure is 0.7-1.25MPa, meeting the requirements of steam boiler in drying room.

 

When the drying room is equipped with a steam boiler of suitable model and size, the required steam quantity can be stably provided for it for a long time, and at the same time, the pressure can be satisfied, so as to ensure that the drying room can play its role normally and provide the foundation for the quality of food, vegetables and other products.
