Avoid clogging your steam boiler

Effectively fight against clogging of tubes


fouling boiler
Over time, the tubes in contact or closest to the burner fall victim to soot and other particles resulting from combustion. They then form a film inside the tubes, also called fouling.


Consequences of poor maintenance :

This fouling generates two major unwanted effects:

  • The significant reduction in heat transfer within the boiler.
  • The increase in fuel consumption, and consequently the increase in combustion costs.



How to avoid and reduce deposits :

  • Adequate adjustment of the nozzle or change it during checks.
  • Optimal combustion adjustment.
  • Regular check of filters and fuel line.
  • Regular maintenance, cleaning and checks.



Possible cleanings :
Working :

  • Chimney sweeping with steam or compressed air
  • The injection of chemical reagents into the fuel
  • The injection of chemical reagents into the flame


Stopped:

  • Chemical cleaning
  • Chimney sweeping by internal brushing
  • Chemical cleaning with low pressure steam
  • Sandblasting in extreme cases



What are the benefits?

As with potting, the upkeep and proper maintenance of your equipment allows for increased production, limits the dangers and risks of production stoppages and significantly reduces your fuel consumption and production costs.
