Portage & Main Excellence Built on the firm foundation principals that have stood the test of time for years |
This very efficient outdoor water furnace/outdoor hydronic heater can turn the lumber industries waste into gold by using the P&M furnace to operate the kiln. You can use otherwise waste material to increase the value of your lumber by regulating the moisture content, destroy insects and bugs thus increasing the grade.
THE WOOD CHIP BURNER--a bio-mass heating system with features as:
- This highly efficient boiler (OWHH) with the ultimate in heat exchanger design, which includes 20 reverse return 2” fire tubes.
- Round firepot completely surrounded by the water jacket.
- Water tubes above the fire to extract maximum heat before flue gases travel under a water baffle, at the back of the firepot , to trap the additional heat and fly ash. Flue gases then travel through the twenty fire tubes.
- Non-pressurized system, safe to operate and no special operator license required. Standard rated pre-insulated pipe can be used to deliver heat into the building.
- Forced air feed at the fire pot and in the exhaust ensure a clean complete burn of your bio-mass fuel. Wood Chip Water Furnace burns complete and efficient with forced air draft control.
- Self contained unit can be located outside.
- Built with features that have been around and proven for a long time-such as the round firepot, tube heat exchanger, double welded joints.
- Uses off-the-shelf parts that are readily available.
- System has burn back protection.
- Capable of producing 500,000 to million btu’s plus.
- Large 30 yard feed bin (6ft high, 8ft wide and 16ft long) has hydraulic controlled opening lid to keep out the rain and snow. Depending on your particular demand for heat, the 30 yard bin should hold enough fuel for 1-2 weeks
- The bin cover is hydraulically actuated, making refilling the supply bin as simple as pushing a button. Viewing ports on the ends of the storage bin facilitate checking chip levels from the ground.
- The complete chip feed system is operated with one electrically driven hydraulic pump which enables the use of PLC controlled hydraulic motors. This lends itself to automatic modulating feed rates and results in a smooth operating feed into the boiler.
- Hydraulic rams for trouble free chip feed into the feed screw auger which feeds directly into the boiler. Two hydraulic pistons take turns supplying the fuel auger driven by a hydraulic motor the feed auger is regulated by the control panel.
- An electric eye monitors the feed rate.
- Easily adjustable hydraulic feed makes it easy to control the fuel feed and ash removal rate. Auto ash removal by an auger into an external ash bin.
- Coupled with the feed auger and controlled by the same panel is the automatic dual forced air draft system.
- Simple controls that can even call your phone if anything is going wrong. The entire furnace and fuel system is controlled through one panel which includes an alarm system designed for immediate notification of emergency situations using any regular phone line. System can be either controlled by maintaining the furnace water temperature; or by sensors controlling the furnace water temperature according to variations in the outdoor temperatures. Control panel is conveniently located right over the feed auger.
