Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I choose Furnace Oil (FO) over Diesel (HSD)?
Furnace Oil is a heavy fuel that is significantly more cost-effective for large-scale steam production than Diesel, making it ideal for high-uptime industrial processes.
Does this boiler require a fuel pre-heater?
Yes. Because Furnace Oil is highly viscous at room temperature, our 1.5 Ton unit includes an integrated outflow heater/pre-heater to thin the oil for proper atomization.
What is the thermal efficiency of this FO-fired model?
Our FO fired boilers achieve up to 88% efficiency, which can be boosted to 95% with the addition of a sensible heat recovery unit (Economizer).
Can this boiler handle "dirty" or high-viscosity fuels?
Yes, the system is equipped with heavy-duty filters and steam-atomized burners specifically designed to handle the impurities and density of industrial furnace oil.
What is the exact steam output?
The rated capacity is 1500 Kg/hr (1.5 TPH) of high-quality dry steam.
What burner brand is used in the 1.5 TPH model?
We equip this model with world-renowned ELCO-Germany or equivalent high-precision dual-block burners for stable combustion.
What is the standard working pressure?
The standard design pressure is 10.54 Kg/cm², with custom high-pressure options available up to 17.5 Kg/cm².
Is this 1.5 Ton model IBR or Non-IBR?
This is a fully IBR (Indian Boiler Regulations) compliant boiler, manufactured using IBR-approved SA 515/516 boiler quality steel plates.
What is a "3-Pass Wet Back" design?
It means the fire/flue gases pass through the water three times to maximize heat transfer. The "wet back" design ensures the rear chamber is surrounded by water, eliminating the need for high-maintenance refractory.
Is the operation fully automatic?
Yes, the boiler is equipped with an automatic control panel that manages the burner firing, water level control, and pressure cut-offs without manual intervention.
Does it come with a skid-mounted option?
Yes, the 1.5 Ton FO boiler is 100% skid-mounted. The boiler, feed pump, and pre-heating system are integrated on a single frame for "Plug-and-Play" installation.
What is the 3-element control system?
It is an optional advanced monitoring system that synchronizes water level, steam flow, and feedwater flow for maximum safety and efficiency in high-demand plants.
How long does it take to reach full pressure from a cold start?
Typically, it takes 30 to 45 minutes to reach optimum working pressure from a cold state.
What electrical power is required for the 1.5 TPH unit?
The system requires a 3-phase, 415V supply. The total connected load is approximately 5 HP to 7.5 HP including the burner and pump.
How do I clean the smoke tubes?
The boiler features a hinged front door, allowing your operators to easily brush out the smoke tubes during routine maintenance without dismantling the unit.
What safety valves are included?
We provide two IBR-certified spring-loaded safety valves, a low-water alarm, and an automatic flame failure cut-off.
How often should I perform a blowdown?
To prevent scale buildup from FO impurities and water minerals, a manual or automatic blowdown should be performed once per shift (every 8 hours).
What is the expected lifespan of this boiler?
With proper water treatment and regular maintenance, an Indian Boilers 1.5 Ton FO unit has an industrial lifespan of 20+ years.
Does Indian Boilers provide annual maintenance (AMC)?
Yes, our Ahmedabad team offers comprehensive AMCs, including IBR renewal assistance and burner tuning to ensure you get the best fuel economy year-round.
