INTERNAL CARE OF MARINE BOILERS

  Code No 150

Time: 25 Mins

Considerable saving in operating costs will be achieved by strict control of boiler water treatment and analysis. A better safety record and operating efficiency result from an accurate control of feed water, boiler water and condensate quality no matter which type of boiler or feed system is fitted. Attention to boiler water consumption is a further area requiring special care and attention.

This video deals with problem areas related to Fire Tube Boilers, Low Pressure Water Tube Boilers, Waste Heat Recovery Units and High Pressure Water Tube Boilers. Details of impurity control are different in each case but the operating philosophy and the desired end results are the same benefitting both the ship’s engineer officers and her owners.
