How much steam can a steam boiler produce with 1 ton of water?

Steam boilers are mostly used in industrial sites such as chemicals and building materials. For this type of boiler, users are generally concerned about the boiler's operating efficiency, energy consumption, service life, and so on. How much steam can a steam boiler produce with 1 ton of water? A few tons of steam boiler is enough to meet the needs of users, and users must understand these data when purchasing boilers. Zhengzhou Fangkuai Boiler Factory will give you a free explanation of this knowledge of steam boilers.

If losses such as leakage and blowdown are neglected, the use of 1 ton of water in a steam boiler can produce 1 ton of steam; considering the actual situation, different boilers have water losses, and this ratio is 1-5% of the export steam.

The unit of measurement for boilers is commonly called "XX tons". There is a conversion method between hot water boilers and steam boilers. According to the measurement standard, the conversion is: 1 ton/hour (t/h) ≈ 60×104 kcal ( Kcal)/hour (kcal/h) ≈0.7 megawatt (MW).

For example, a 58MW hot water boiler is equivalent to an 80-ton steam boiler, and the boiler's flow rate is about 970 tons/hour.

Steam boiler is a pressure vessel, routine maintenance work is indispensable, mainly include:
       (1) Check the function of the water level regulator: whether it can automatically fill the water and stop the pump.
       (2) Inspection of flame monitoring.
       (3) Lubricate the rotating, sliding and cam parts and wipe them.
       (4) Flush the water level gauge 1-2 times (per shift), and operate according to the correct method until the water level gauge is rinsed.
       (5) Discharge 1-2 times (per shift).
