FO Fired Boilers: High-Capacity Steam Solutions for Heavy Industry
At IndianBoilers.com, our FO (Furnace Oil) Fired Boilers are engineered for large-scale industrial applications where high steam volume and fuel economy are critical. Designed to handle heavy fuel oils (Class C), these boilers are the powerhouse of the manufacturing sector, offering a lower cost-per-ton of steam compared to lighter distillates.
Our Furnace Oil systems are equipped with specialized heating and pumping units to ensure the perfect viscosity for atomization, resulting in complete combustion and minimal soot formation.
Technical Features of FO Boilers
- Integrated Oil Pre-Heaters: Since Furnace Oil is thick at room temperature, our boilers include high-efficiency electric or steam pre-heaters to maintain optimal flow and burner performance.
- Rugged 3-Pass Design: Built with high-grade carbon steel, the 3-pass wet-back configuration ensures maximum heat extraction from heavy oil combustion.
- Low Maintenance Burners: We utilize heavy-oil compatible burners (pressure atomizing or steam atomizing) designed to reduce nozzle clogging and maintenance intervals.
- Advanced Pollution Control: Equipped with Multi-Cyclone Dust Collectors or Wet Scrubbers to meet environmental emission norms for heavy oil firing.
