Steam Boiler Safety & Control

Technical Description

The unit has been developed and built in accordance with the German technical regulations for steam and boilers (TRD 602).

The normal operation of a boiler as well as malfunctions in the water level and pressure sections of the boiler that trip the safety control system monitors the operation of the boiler and uses original parts with TRD approval.

In addition to the safety devices it is possible to switch in up to 15 system faults. Various fault conditions in system components can be simulated and their identification practiced.

The system comes equipped with PC data acquisition.

A supply of compressed air is required.

Learning Objectives / Experiments

- Model of an oil-fired steam boiler with operating and

safety components
- PC data acquisition of characteristics of the

monitoring elements
- Fault simulation:
+ burner with flame monitoring
+ pressure switch and limiter
+ feed water and level controller
+ high and low water limiter

Features

* Complete boiler simulation with fault circuits and PC
data acquisition₁
* Transparent boiler, clear view of measuring and

control devices
