Oil feed pumppump- internal gear type oil pump with a capacity of 1000 lph with operating pressure of 30 Kg/cm2

Accessories continued . Oil preheating unitunit- Dual operated with electrical & steam oil pre_heater with shell & tube type heat exchanger Oil pre_filter pre_filter- Bucket type filter with a standby Burner assemblyassembly- pressure jet type burner with auto regulating arrangement to meet load requirement. Modulating unitunit- Step less modulating unit with a turn down ratio of 4:1 regulating the air fuel requirement of various load requirement

Instrumentation & safety cut Extra low water level in drum cut off offs
by Mobrey unit High pressure switchswitch- Sensing the steam pressure inside the boiler and trips the firing at the set pressure. Flame failure sensorsensor- a photo cell unit mounted on the burner assembly, cut off the fuel supply in absence of no flame High flu gas temperaturetemperature- cut off Low oil temperaturetemperature- cut off Flue gas outlet damper closedclosed- cut off by limit switch

Fuel oil Specification

Water Quality Requirement As per IS 1039210392-1982

Feed water requirement:requirement:Total hardness 10 mg/l max pH valuevalue- 8.5 to 9.5 Dissolved oxygenoxygen- .1 mg/l max. Boiler water requirement:requirement:Total hardness Not detectable pH valuevalue- 11.0 to 12.0 Total alkalinityalkalinity- 700 mg/l max. Caustic alkalinityalkalinity- 350 mg/l max. Residual sodium sulphite 30 50 mg/l Phosphates as (PO4) 20 20-40 mg/l

Feed water treatment

Feed water treated by filtering through sand filter bed. Then it passed through cat ion exchange bedbed- water becomes soft. All ca, Mg salts are converted into sodium based salt. Then the dosing chemicals are added and it is stored in the 10KL storage tank. From storage tank it feeds to boiler through feed pump.
