Over the past few decades, fired heater and boiler fuel gas systems have become more complex as safety standards have become more stringent. With more focus on SIL certifications, fault tolerant PLCs, and other more “critical” devices, there is less time is available to engineer basic functions, such as fuel gas pressure control.
With that in mind, we recently developed a technical brochure to help simplify the process of selecting a pressure control solution for a fired heater fuel gas system. Here is what you can expect to find in the brochure.
1) Overview of pressure control points in a plant fuel gas system and key design considerations for pressure regulators in each of the applications. This is helpful in ensuring you don’t overlook some of the little details that could mean the difference between a great and poor performing installation.
2) Solutions such as the minimum fire regulator to help with fired heater start-ups, and series regulators that can be used to increase the reliability of your fuel gas system pressure control. The solutions are field-proven--and in many parts of the world, these solutions are the industry standard.
3) Easier identification of the regulator for your application. We know it can feel daunting with so many different fuel gas regulator makes and models available, so we grouped the different regulators by type and provided easy-to-follow icons and tables to simplify the process.
I hope you find this technical brochure as easy-to-follow and comprehensive as I do. Feel free to leave any comments and questions you have regarding the brochure or fuel gas pressure control.
