The specifics of the use of boiler equipment implies the use of a seasonal format of their operation. During the heating season, the working fluid is heated in them to provide consumers with heat and hot water, in summer they completely stop with the obligatory preservation procedure. This keeps the heating elements free from corrosion. Such conservation of the steam boiler regardless of its capacity or technical parameters can be performed in several ways. The most common and practical method is the use of dehumidified air.
How the operation is performed
Mothballing of boilers using dried air is carried out when they are stopped for a period of 2 to 4 months (repair, maintenance, duration of the summer season). The principle of the work carried out is as follows:
- Dry air is supplied to the canned closed volume of the boiler and heating elements and the humidity is maintained from 40 to 60% for the entire period of inactivity.
- In the presence of salt deposits or corrosion, the humidity of the supplied air is reduced to 35-44%.
- Longer periods of conservation provide for preliminary treatment of the inner surface of the boiler and heating elements with special compounds, which are selected depending on the type of boiler.
