Fulton introduces two new larger outputs to expand its VSRT range and open new markets

Fulton is expanding its award-winning VSRT steam boilers range and introducing two new re-designed models with outputs of 1565 and 1956 kg / h .
Fulton ’ s Carl Knight says : “ These new models are groundbreaking for their output range . There are no truly-efficient tubeless vertical steam boilers with similar outputs , the VSRT is the only tubeless boiler available with the capability of efficiently producing nearly two tonnes per hour of steam .”.
The new VSRT models maintain exceptionally high operating efficiencies (> 86 % gross thermal efficiency compared to approximately 80 % from typical boiler designs ), resulting in lower operating and lifecycle costs and improved return on investment . The latest models also achieve ultra-low NOx emissions of less than 20ppm and 10:1 turndown capability .
The water volume of these latest VSRT models is far greater than equivalent horizontal shell and tube boilers and steam generators , combined with an impressive steam chest volume giving it the ability to react quickly to changes in steam demand . The VSRT still boasts a start-up time of approximately 20 minutes and achieves a 99.75 % steam quality , a detail most manufacturers are unwilling to publish .
Compared to equivalent vertical tubeless steam boilers , the VSRT is a more durable , and in many cases , compact boiler that is energy-efficient , produces an increased volume of higher quality steam , is easy to maintain . They also come with the assurance of a 10-year “ unparalleled ” warranty on the pressure vessel , double that of the industry standard .
