Frequently Asked Questions
Can I switch between PNG and LPG?
Yes, the burner can be calibrated to handle both gases, though a change in gas train components may be needed for permanent switching.
How much can I save by switching from Diesel to PNG?
PNG typically reduces operational costs by 25% to 35% compared to HSD (Diesel).
What is the efficiency of the VEPOMAX series?
The base efficiency is 88%, which can reach 92%+ if an external economizer is installed.
Is natural gas better for the boiler's lifespan?
Yes. Gas is a "clean" fuel. Unlike oil, it doesn't leave soot on the heating surfaces, maintaining high efficiency for years without internal cleaning.
Is this boiler IBR or Non-IBR?
At 200 Kg/hr, we offer a Non-IBR Coil Type for easy compliance or an IBR Shell Type for specific industrial standards.
Does it require a large chimney?
No. Because gas combustion is clean, a small-diameter exhaust stack is sufficient.
What is the "3-Pass" design?
It means the hot flue gases travel through the water-heating area three times, capturing maximum heat before exiting.
What burner brands are used?
We use premium Riello (Italy) or ELCO (Germany) gas burners for high reliability.
What is the standard working pressure?
Standard units operate at 7 Kg/cm2, but we can provide designs up to 10.54 Kg/cm2.
How long does it take to start?
You can expect full steam pressure in roughly 5 minutes.
What safety devices are included in the gas train?
It includes a gas filter, high/low-pressure switches, and a safety shut-off valve.
Is it fully automatic?
Yes. The burner fires and cuts off automatically based on the steam pressure setting.
What happens if the water level drops?
The boiler is equipped with a Low-Water Cut-Off that shuts down the burner immediately and triggers an alarm.
Does it produce noise?
The gas burner is significantly quieter than an oil burner, making it suitable for indoor installations.
Is the unit skid-mounted?
Yes. It is a "Plug-and-Play" skid-mounted system including the pump and control panel.
What kind of water treatment is required?
A Water Softener is essential to prevent scale buildup in the coils.
How much space is needed?
The vertical unit occupies about 3 feet x 4 feet of floor space.
How often should I clean the gas filter?
We recommend checking the gas filter every 3–6 months to ensure steady fuel flow.
Do you provide service in Ahmedabad?
Yes, our Ahmedabad headquarters provides full support, installation, and AMC services.
