The boilers are built under license Eckrohrkessel (ERK). More than 5000 boilers were built following this design which guarantees reliability and safe operation.
1 unheated return tubes
2 header
3 mixture tubes
4 riser tubes (evaporator)
5 overflow tubes
6 unheated steam drum
7 unheated downcomers
Due to the unique arrangement of mixture tubes, steam backflow tubes, overflow tubes and unheated downcomers and return tubes, a pre-separation of steam before the steam drum can be achieved. This results to excellent load change behaviour as well as a high steam purity.
This tube cage with all welded or separately supported heating surfaces is self-supported by downcomers in the corners of the boiler. A heavy supporting frame where other boilers systems have to be hung in is unnecessary. Hence, complicated connections between boiler and cold frame do not exist.
Eckrohr-Boilers are set up in the way that they can expand from the ground level to all directions.
