High spec boiler at 'off the shelf' price

The Premium Range is based around Babcock Wanson’s NBWB and BWD fire tube boilers that use their latest generation of burners for high quality and performance. Natural gas fired fully modulating burners are fitted to most of the range, covering outputs from 250 to 6000kg/h with a 12-15 barg design pressure, making them suitable for most process steam users.

Premium Range boilers are highly competitively priced and are aimed at the steam user who wants fully automated control with the minimum of boiler house manning. Supplied with all standard boiler mountings including options of automatic TDS control and timed bottom blowdown, the new boiler meets the requirements of modern industry without the need for expensive up-front engineering.

With the exception of the two smallest sizes, all Premium Range boilers are fitted with the Babcock Wanson BW3DAYS unattended boiler operating system.  This system can be set at commissioning for daily or three day checks depending on a risk assessment of the customer’s steam process and their degree of monitoring of the water treatment system employed - all in accordance with the latest BG01 Guidelines. Once set up for unattended operation, all the user needs to do is monitor for any operational alarms and undertake a very simple check every three days, which is completed without interfering with boiler operation and is acknowledged to the boiler control system thereby ensuring the tests are completed to the operating schedule.  This system exceeds the requirements of BG01 Arrangement 2 for unattended operation and can also readily meet BG01 Typical Arrangement 3 with the addition of boiler house monitoring equipment thereby allowing a user to operate their steam system safely and with the minimum of attendance.

Packages of ancillary equipment – including feed water tank, blowdown tank, softener and chemical dosing - are available with the Premium Range, designed to be simple to order through the use of a single ordering code per package. The equipment is extremely easy to install as it can be supplied as standard skid mounted packages which further reduce site installation costs and time.

“For the majority of our fire tube boiler and steam generator customers we provide process heating solutions based on our existing product ranges, but adapted to meet their often complex energy and process requirements” states Chris Horsley, MD of Babcock Wanson UK. “We have built our business on this and have an enviable reputation for the quality of our product, engineering expertise and ongoing customer service.  

“However, not all customers need this level of bespoke design. We have introduced the Premium Range of fire tube boilers for customers with less complex steam requirements. These boilers are supplied as standard packages making them very cost effective and quick and simple to fit.  They are highly cost-effective as no engineering time is required in processing an order. It fills a gap in our offering, enable our customers to benefit from an excellent quality product with high integrity controls at a highly affordable price.”
