AB&CO · TT BOILERS hot oil systems are high temperature heating systems, used for high performance industrial processes - most often instead of steam, due to much higher operating temperatures at low operation pressures, and because of significant less overall operation costs. Try compare steam and thermal oil here.

As it appears from above proporty data sheet, steam at high temperatures requires pressurised systems whereas thermal oil can be operated pressureless up to above 300°C. When pressurised, the thermal oil it can be operated evn up to 400°C.

The hot oil packages comprise heater, main pump, heat exchangers, tanks for expansion, dearating / de-gassing and for buffer, emptying systems with pump and tank, special valves, strainers, compensators, safeties, controllers, auxiliary equipment, tubes, fittings, charge of thermal fluid and of course full documentation.

For these packages TT BOILERS deliver a complete program of customized oil-fired, gas-fired and electric thermal oil heaters. 

Environmental solutions are available in many alternative design - including economizer and thermal oil heated by waste heat in, for instance, hot flue gas.

AB&CO · TT BOILERS have specialized in skid-mounted units and containerized solutions.

The simple principle in hot oil system is to heat up special thermal fluid (non-flammable oil) by circulating the fluid through heaters (with burners, electrical elements or flue gas recuperators) - and thereafter direct the fluid out to one or several consumers i.e. heat exchanger, air heaters, reactors, rollers etc.

These systems are all tailor-made and they are always delivered as complete packages for assembly on site, or as skid-mounted units when the size allows it - and with full and easy accessible instruction for erecting, installation and maintenance.

SPECIAL SERVICE
The engineers of AB&CO · TT BOILERS are able to assist in the operation of the thermal fluid heating system by frequently analysing samples of the circulating oil. From the analysis it is possible to guide for an optimum performance and long life time for both the oil and the plant.

           

 

Important for a trouble-free service is to choose a high quality thermal fluid i.e. the heat transfer oil. It is recommended to use a non fouling, high temperature resistant 'White Mineral Oil' for the applications like AB&CO NF. This fluid is available at our stock in Copenhagen.

The thermal oil should be frequently tested by AB&CO · TT BOILERS laboratories in order to ensure a optimum and low cost operation of the heating systems.

Do not compromise with the oil - use the right oil and check it frequently.
