Eng. Shamel, I wanted to thank you and CATEC team as well for taking time from your busy schedule to support and help Americana meat KSA on all utilities projects (steam boilers, thermal oil heaters, etc). I kNow some of the work wasn’t part of your normal responsibilities, but your assistance was invaluable in helping my company get everything done in a very timely manner. Your expertise and enthusiasm were both appreciated during a time which can be stressful for all concerned! We sincerely appreciate your efforts and thank all CATEC team
In facilities, in addition to limiting, the system activity sequence is also important to achieve energy efficiency. Nowadays, with the general use of VAV (variable volume) systems in commercial complexes, simultaneous heating and cooling and overheating of the primary air are often ignored. Applying boiler restrictions based on outside air temperature, for example when the temperature is above . degrees Celsius, is an effective way to prevent this situation.
Electric boilers are used in buildings that require very little steam or no access to natural gas. Electric boilers are referred to as clean, quiet, compact, and easy to install boilers. The lack of a combustion process reduces the complexity of design, execution, and maintenance. Heating agents can be easily replaced in case of failure. This type of engine room boiler can be used to generate steam or low pressure or high-pressure water or it can be a good option for those consumers who are limited by gas emission laws. Their size varies from , to , BTU input. In general, its efficiency is % to %.
According to the manufacturers recommendation, boilers should be inspected regularly. Pressure pipe defects, checking and ensuring the safety of valves, water flow devices, and correct float, scales, and the water level should all be checked. The burner and fuel of the boiler system need proper handling and maintenance to ensure proper operation and efficiency, heat transfer and check for proper ignition.
The hot water produced by the boiler is pumped through pipes and reaches the building equipment, which can include hot water coils in the fan coils, hot water heating equipment and heating systems. Boilers produce steam that flows from high-pressure to low-pressure areas through pipes without the need for an external energy source, such as a pump. The steam used for heating can be used directly for steam-powered equipment, or through a heat exchanger can generate heat to produce hot water for the equipment.
