Precise measuring and monitoring optimize boiler performance and protection for efficient operations
Boiler operation optimization is a key focus for utilities managers seeking production efficiencies. Steam remains a vital power source for industrial process heating, yet energy costs are spiraling. Competitive pressures make downtime and maintenance ever more costly, and so protecting boiler equipment and control systems is essential. With accurate and reliable measurement and monitoring fuel consumption can be optimized and boiler lifespan prolonged, unlocking considerable cost savings.

Applications
Feedwater preparation
A consistent supply of high-quality feedwater is not only vital to optimal boiler efficiency, it protects the boiler’s functional safety and longevity, avoiding equipment failures, costly blowdowns, and corrosion, ensuring consistent steam availability.
Our expertise in the field
Endress+Hauser metering and monitoring solutions deliver the essential information and insights to maximize feedwater quality and minimize boiler operating costs. Our Steam/Water Analysis System help you continuously check the quality of your feedwater.

Monitor feedwater temperature downstream of the economizer with iTHERM TM131
Extend boiler lifespan and drive steam production efficiency
Efficient fuel combustion and compliant emissions are key objectives in boiler operation. If a boiler is burning fuel sub-optimally not only can cost losses be incurred, but emissions standards violated. Accurate measurement of fuel combustion and exhaust parameters is an essential but complex undertaking.
Our expertise in the field
At Endress+Hauser we provide adapted solutions for safe, efficient, and accessible fuel combustion measurement and exhaust management to maximize the performance of your boiler.
An efficient, available supply of steam at the correct temperature is essential to effective utilities plant operations, meaning that appropriate boiler controls and a continuous flow measurement are, in turn, indispensable.
Our expertise in the field
Offering a full range of robust, proven flow metering and monitoring solutions, Endress+Hauser is also leading from the front with new technologies based on the multivariable (pressure and temperature compensated) Vortex principle. This technology enables wet steam detection or dryness fraction measurement, all combining to ensure superior overall boiler efficiency.
