Unattended operation for 72h
September 1st 2008 Unattended operation for extended
periods has been a cost saving
enjoyed by boiler operators in
mainland Europe for many years.
Babcock Wanson has introduced
its BW72H steam boiler control
system to the UK which offers
users 72 hours fully approved
unattended operation and 30 days
uninterrupted steaming along with
enhanced system monitoring and
security.
To ensure safe operation, steam
boilers are normally subjected to a
series of daily, weekly and monthly
level, pressure and safety tests.
These can interfere with production
requirements as well as involving
site engineering staff in time
consuming work. Babcock
Wanson's BW72H Control System
alleviates these problems with an
array of self checking controls and
simple 72 hour and monthly
interval checks. This system
incorporates an Operating
Assistance Module (OAM) with
user friendly 8" touch screen which
provides clear indication of the
system operating conditions while
also logging working data and
regulatory test actions.
In compliance with EN 12953
and approved under the PED,
BW72H coupled to the onboard
OAM integrates all necessary
control loops for the optimum
operation of the boiler. More articles from Babcock Wanson UK Ltd: |
