Boiler Description

Description
The Vitoflex 300-UF Grate Firing System (patent no: EP
0 905 442 B1) was developed for automatic combustion
of all dry to moist wood fuels (remnant wood, pellets and
forest wood chips to max. W50, (see section "Wood Fuel
Requirements") and combines the benefits of underfeed
firing with the benefits of grate firing.
The Vitoflex 300-UF Grate Firing System is characterized
by highest efficiencies and perfect combustion in all load
stages. The Vitoflex 300-UF Boiler Plant has been built to
ASME Sec. IV and has CRN for Canada. It is tested and
approved to the applicable CSA / UL safety standards.
Function:
- The solid, powerful and heat-resistant in-feed auger
moves the fuel into the burner trough and onto the
descending and moving grate zone. An electrical and
mechanical temperature sensor to operate the
thermostatic valve for extinguishing assembly are
located on the in-feed auger. Above the auger is the
metering container with a light barrier for setting the
level of the fuel insulating layer.
- The fuel is either ignited manually or automatically with
an automatic igniter (optional). The boiler features a
reliable burner trough, a descending grate and a moving
burn-out grate made from highly-refractory cast steel
[approx. b in. (12 mm)]. These items provide for
excellent performance control and highest safety
preventing back-burn in conjunction with an automatic
de-ashing assembly with ash container (optional) for the
combustion chamber. The solid, horizontally positioned
and large-volume combustion chamber has been
optimized in terms of combustion, consists of a high-
quality refractory brick lining and has multiple layers of
insulation for the lowest possible surface temperatures.
A variable speed primary air blower provides preheated
air to the combustion grates in the combustion chamber.
- In the upper part of the combustion chamber, the
secondary air is blown into the gas space of the firing
system by variable speed blower via an encircling ring
with individually adjustable nozzles to achieve high
turbulence. This mixes the fuel gases with fresh
secondary air to achieve perfect combustion and very
low emissions.
The combustion chamber door is solidly constructed,
air-cooled and very well insulated. The combustion
chamber door is equipped with solid double-jointed
hinges for easy maintenance.
The heat is transferred to the water in the horizontal
heat exchanger. The boiler is well insulated and
highly accessible through the heat exchanger door on
the front. A pneumatic cleaning system (optional) can
be installed at the insulated heat exchanger door.
- The flue gas exhaust blower has been specially
designed for wood burning boilers and quiet operation.
The spring- suspended motor has a solid, heat-resistant
design with a heat dissipation hub. The blower housing
on the intake can be mounted radial by 360° and has a
variable rotation speed and a round blow-out nozzle.
It is mounted directly on the flue gas cyclone.
