Guide: The water level of a gas-fired steam boiler is an important parameter that needs to be monitored and controlled during the operation of the boiler. The water level reflects the balance between the feedwater flow in the boiler and the steam load flow.
The water level of a gas-fired steam boiler is an important parameter that needs to be monitored and controlled during the operation of the boiler. The water level reflects the balance between the feedwater flow in the boiler and the steam load flow.
If there is a serious water shortage in the steam boiler, the boiler must be stopped urgently, and water is not allowed to be added to the boiler. This is because when there is a serious water shortage in the boiler, it is not known to what extent the water level of the steam drum is at the bottom. It may be that there is no water in the steam drum, or the water wall has been partially dried and overheated. In this case, if water is forcibly added to the boiler, huge thermal stress will be generated due to the excessive temperature difference, which will damage the equipment. At the same time, when water encounters a hot metal surface, a large amount of steam will evaporate instantly, causing a sudden increase in vapor pressure, and even causing pipe bursts or more serious accidents. Therefore, when severe water shortage occurs, it must be dealt with in strict accordance with the regulations, and it is never allowed to blindly fill the water.
xinli oil and gas steam boiler is equipped with a water shortage alarm device. In the event of a serious water shortage, the boiler will automatically shut down to prevent accidents.
