Frequently Asked Questions
What types of coal can be used in this model?
Our boilers are designed for high-versatility, accepting Bituminous, Sub-bituminous, Lignite, and even imported high-GCV coal.
Can this boiler run on fuels other than coal?
Yes, the STEAMAX SM-50 series features a multi-fuel furnace that can burn biomass briquettes, wood chips, and agricultural waste with minimal adjustment.
What is the thermal efficiency of the 5 TPH coal boiler?
The unit achieves a thermal efficiency of 82% ± 2% when equipped with an external economizer or air pre-heater.
How does an economizer improve ROI for a 5 Ton boiler?
An economizer recovers waste heat from flue gases to preheat feedwater, reducing coal consumption by approx. 5%, which leads to massive annual fuel savings for 5 TPH operations.
What is the steam output of the SM-50 model?
It provides a steady 5000 Kg/hr (5 Ton/hr) of high-quality dry saturated steam.
What are the standard working pressure options?
Standard designs are available for 10.54 kg/cm², 17.5 kg/cm², and 21 kg/cm². Custom pressures are available on request.
Is this boiler IBR (Indian Boiler Regulations) certified?
Yes, every 5 Ton unit is fully IBR compliant, built with IBR-approved SA 515/516 Gr. 70 plates and high-grade seamless tubes.
What is the advantage of the 3-pass smoke tube design?
It ensures the hot gases travel through the water-submerged tubes three times, maximizing heat absorption and maintaining a lower stack temperature.
Does it feature an automatic fuel feeding system?
Yes, for 5 TPH units, we offer Automatic Pulsating or Moving Grates and screw-conveyor feeding to ensure consistent pressure and reduced manual labor.
How long does it take to reach working pressure from a cold start?
A 5 Ton shell-type boiler typically takes 45 to 60 minutes to reach full operating pressure from a cold start.
What safety interlocks are standard on this model?
It includes dual safety valves, high-pressure cut-offs, a low-water alarm system, and a fusible plug to protect against overheating.
Do I need a certified boiler attendant for this unit?
Yes, according to IBR norms, a 5 TPH boiler must be under the charge of a Certified Boiler Attendant or Boiler Operation Engineer (BOE).
How does the boiler handle sudden peak load fluctuations?
The SM-50 is designed with a large shell diameter, providing a significant steam storage volume to handle sudden surges without a drop in pressure.
What kind of water treatment is mandatory?
A Water Softening Plant is required to maintain feedwater hardness below 5 ppm, preventing scale buildup and ensuring a long tube life.
How much space is required for installation?
A 5 Ton boiler system (including the MDC and chimney) requires a dedicated boiler house. We provide detailed layout drawings to help you plan your space.
What are the environmental compliance features?
We provide an integrated Multi-Cyclone Dust Collector (MDC) to ensure particulate emissions stay within the limits set by the Pollution Control Board (GPCB/CPCB).
How do I clean the smoke tubes?
The boiler features hinged front and rear doors, allowing easy access for mechanical cleaning and inspection of the tubes.
What is the expected lifespan of an Indian Boilers 5 TPH unit?
With proper water treatment and scheduled maintenance, our 5 Ton boilers are engineered to last 20 to 25 years.
Does Indian Boilers provide financing assistance?
Yes, we assist our clients with the necessary technical documentation to facilitate industrial machinery loans through major banks.
