Thermic Fluid Heaters-01

ALFA - Oil & Gas Fired Thermic Fluid Heaters

At high temperature, water and steam requires a corresponding high operating pressure. Establishing this with water and steam can be very controversial and expensive. In thermic fluid heaters a thermal oil is used instead as the heat carrier, operating at low pressure to deliver 300^oC temperature. In comparison water and steam, would require a pressure of 85 bar to obtain this temperature. There are several advantages of using thermic fluid heaters compared to steam boilers. the ost obvious are,

• High temperature up to 300^oc at low pressure of 1 to 3 bar
• No equipment for pre-treatment of boiler feed water
• No heat loss due to hot condensare and flash steam discharge
• No risk of corrosion
• Low maintenance costs
• Easy to operate (does not require a steam boiler certified operator)

The ALFA thermic fluid heaters are thermodynamically optimized & are characterized by high efficiency & excellent heat transfer to the thermic fluid. The combustion chambers are generously dimensioned & are sufficiently long. The flame can thus burn fully & the emission values remain very low for all fuel types. ALFA has the following distinct advantages

• Large heating surface area hence higher efficiency
• Hinged front door for easy cleaning & inspection
• Rugged construction
• Maximum running reliability

Capacities available are from 1,00,000 Kcals/hr to 40,00,000 Kcals/hr. Fuel firing options are light oil, heavy oil, gas or dual fuel. Units are also available in vertical designs.
