Industrial boiler-The essential guide to industrial hot water boilers
There are many types of industrial hot water boiler systems, including high temperature hot water boilers, medium temperature hot water boilers and low temperature hot water boilers. As you can imagine, the primary difference between these types of hot water boiler systems is the maximum temperature. The pressure also plays a significant role in the classification of these boiler systems. For instance, a high temperature hot water boiler includes any boiler with a maximum temperature exceeding 250°F and/or maximum pressures exceeding 160 pounds per square inch, or PSIG.We will explore the various types of hot water boiler systems in this article. However, we want to first take a step back and explain the role of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) in classifying boilers as well as clarify the difference between industrial steam boilers and hot water boiler systems.
