Q:Can hot water boilers and steam boilers be transformed into each other?

A: Gas steam generators can be divided into water heaters and steam furnaces according to the use of product media. They are both boilers, but differ in many ways. There is coal-to-gas or low-nitrogen transformation in the boiler industry. Can hot water boilers and steam boilers be transformed? Let’s take a look with the noble editor today!
1. Can the gas water heater be changed into a gas steam generator?
The answer is no, the reason is that hot water boilers generally work under normal pressure without pressure, and their steel plates are much thinner than those used in steam boilers. Considering the structure and design principles, hot water boilers cannot be transformed into steam boilers.
2. Can the steam boiler be changed into a hot water boiler?
The answer is yes. The transformation of steam boilers into hot water boilers is conducive to energy saving, environmental protection, low carbon and waste reduction. Therefore, many factories will change steam boilers to hot water boilers. There are two specific methods for steam boiler transformation:
1. There is a partition in the upper drum, which divides the pot water into a hot water area and a cold water area. The return water of the system must enter the cold water area, and the hot water sent to the heat users should be drawn from the hot water area. At the same time, the steam-water separation device in the original steam boiler boiler was dismantled.
2. The return water of the system is introduced from the lower drum and the lower header for forced circulation. The original steam outlet pipe and feedwater inlet pipe are expanded according to the regulations of the hot water boiler, and changed to the hot water boiler outlet pipe and the return water inlet pipe.
