Tips and common sense for using a 6-ton steam boiler

1. Tips

Pre-start inspection:

Before starting the boiler, a comprehensive inspection of the boiler and its ancillary equipment, including water level, pressure, combustion equipment, fan, safety valve, etc., should be carried out to ensure that everything is normal before starting.
Check whether the natural gas pressure is normal, whether the natural gas filter is ventilated normally, and the oil pump and filter should be able to pass oil normally during combustion.
Check whether the water pump is normal, and open the valves and dampers of various parts of the water supply system. The flue should be in the open position when in the manual position, and the pump selection switch on the electric control cabinet should be selected in the appropriate position.
Check that the safety accessories should be in the normal position, and the water level gauge and pressure gauge should be in the open position.
The softened water equipment can operate normally, the softened water should meet the standard of GB1576, the water level in the soft water tank is normal, and the water pump runs without fault.

Ignition and combustion adjustment:

Turn on the burner, ignite and adjust the flame size to achieve normal combustion. Pay attention to controlling the temperature rise rate to avoid excessive stress caused by uneven heating of components.
According to the boiler load and fuel characteristics, adjust the air volume of the exhaust fan and the induced draft fan to ensure sufficient combustion and reduce pollutant emissions.
Water level and pressure monitoring:
When the boiler is running, pay close attention to the changes in water level and pressure. The water level should be kept within the specified range to avoid too low or too high to cause the boiler to burn dry or overpressure.
The pressure should be stable within the safe range to avoid safety hazards caused by overpressure operation.

Blowdown and cleaning:

The boiler should be blown down regularly to remove impurities and sediments in the boiler and keep the water clean.
Clean the boiler's water level gauge, pressure gauge and other safety accessories to ensure their accuracy and reliability.

Shutdown operation:

When shutting down, the burner should be turned off first to stop combustion.
After the boiler pressure drops to a safe range, close the main steam valve and water supply valve.
Turn off the main power switch and natural gas valve to ensure that the boiler is in a safe state.

2. Common sense of use

Safe operation:

The person operating the boiler must be familiar with the performance of the boiler and relevant safety knowledge, and must be certified to work.
The boiler and safety accessories should be inspected and qualified regularly and used within the validity period.
When the boiler is running, non-operating personnel are strictly prohibited from entering the boiler room or operating the boiler.

Maintenance:

Perform regular maintenance on the boiler and its ancillary equipment, including lubrication, tightening, cleaning, etc.
Check whether the boiler's insulation layer is intact and repair damaged parts in time.
Regularly check whether the flue and air duct of the boiler are unobstructed, and clean up the accumulated dust and debris in time.

Fault handling:

When a boiler fault is found, it should be shut down immediately and the cause should be found out.
It is strictly forbidden to force the boiler to start before the boiler fault is eliminated.
For faults that cannot be handled by yourself, professional maintenance personnel should be contacted in time for maintenance.

Energy saving and consumption reduction:

Reasonably adjust the boiler load according to production needs to avoid unnecessary energy waste.
Periodically test the energy efficiency of the boiler, optimize the combustion parameters, and improve the thermal efficiency.
Adopt advanced energy-saving technologies and equipment, such as condensers, economizers, etc., to further reduce energy consumption.
In summary, the skills and common sense of using a 6-ton steam boiler cover pre-startup inspection, ignition and combustion adjustment, water level and pressure monitoring, sewage discharge and cleaning, shutdown operation, safe operation, maintenance, troubleshooting, energy saving and consumption reduction, etc. Only by fully mastering these skills and common sense can the safe and efficient operation of the boiler be ensured.
