Boiler Economizer Specification


Cylindrical Design

1. Furnish and install finned tube economizer(s) on each of (insert number) steam
generating boilers as shown on drawings and in accordance with the following
specifications.

2. The economizers shall be as designed and manufactured by Kentube Engineered Products


or approved equal.

3. The economizers shall be cylindrical coiled tube, counter-current flow arrangement


designed, manufactured and hydrostatically tested in accordance with the requirements of
Section I of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code and stamped accordingly.
Applicable Code papers are to be furnished and included in the Instruction Manuals
described in this specification.

4. The economizer heating surface shall be two (2) inch O.D. SA-178A boiler tubes with
carbon steel fins, not less than .060 inches thick, attached by continuous, high-frequency,
resistance welding for maximum heat transfer and resistance to fouling. Spot-welded,
soldered or brazed fin attachment is not acceptable. The maximum fin density (pitch)
shall be 48 fins per foot.

5. Tube arrangement shall be square pitch for greatest ease of cleaning with lane blowing or
sootblowers. Triangular or staggered tube arrangement is not acceptable.

6. Headers, where used, shall be SA-106B carbon steel, schedule 40 (minimum) pipe with
300 pound ASA (minimum) RFWN flanged connections. Header wall thickness and
flange rating shall be dependent on economizer design pressure, but not less than
specified above. The lower header shall be furnished with a ¾” drain connection and the
upper header with a ¾” vent connection.

7. The economizer enclosure shall be of the gas tight, hot structure design allowing
unrestricted flow of hot gas over all internal parts for maximum resistance to corrosion.

The inner casing of the enclosure shall be a minimum of 10 gauge, SA-36 carbon steel.
The enclosure shall be furnished with a minimum of 2” thick, factory installed, high
temperature insulation covered with corrugated, galvanized, carbon steel jacket. Exterior
surfaces, not covered by galvanized jacket, shall be painted with high temperature
aluminum paint.

The enclosure shall be fitted with a 10” x 16” carbon steel, insulated access door for
inspection and cleaning.

8. The economizer shall be furnished with a sootblower designed to obtain full coverage of
the heating surfaces. Sootblower shall be installed for lane blowing to provide maximum
cleaning capability. Sootblower provisions are not required for natural gas only
applications.

9. The economizer shall be completely drainable by gravity after vertical installation of the
unit.

10. Design of the economizer shall be based on the following design conditions:

Steam Flow Rate pph


Boiler Operating Pressure psig
Flue Gas Flow Rate pph
Flue Gas Entering Temperature °F
Flue Gas Leaving Temperature * °F
Feedwater Flow Rate pph
Feedwater Supply Temperature °F
Gas Side Pressure Drop “W.C. (maximum)
Water Side Pressure Drop psig (maximum)
Direction Gas Travel **
Primary Fuel ; Sulfur %
Standby Fuel ; Sulfur %

* NOTE TO ENGINEER: Insert, above, for “Flue Gas Leaving Temperature”,


one of the following depending on fuel:

Stack Temperature Fuel Type


300°F Natural Gas
325°F Natural Gas with #2 Oil Standby; #2 Oil
350°F Natural Gas with #5 or #6 Oil Standby; #5 or #6 Oil

** NOTE TO ENGINEER: Insert, above, for “Direction Gas Travel”, one of the
following: Vertically Up, Vertically Down, or
Horizontal

(NOTE: The Systems described in Section 11 below need be used only where the fuel
to be burned contains more than 0.8% sulfur.)

11. Furnish with each economizer a feedwater preheat corrosion control system to prevent
cold-end corrosion of the economizer and also to control exit gas temperatures to protect
ductwork and stack against corrosion.

The system shall control condensation of acid from the flue gas on the economizer
heating surfaces by elevating tube metal temperature with control of entering water

temperature. The system shall also control exit gas temperature by elevation of feedwater
temperature.

The system shall automatically maintain or adjust feedwater temperature to provide


corrosion protection under all boiler operating loads.

The control system shall consist of the following components:

11A.1 One feedwater preheater assembly to be installed in the feedwater piping, and
incorporating the following components:

11A.1a One heat exchanger mounted on a steel supporting skid.

11A.1b One self-operated, dual piloted, tight shut off temperature control
valve with integral temperature adjustment to control flow of steam
to the preheater.

11a.1c All steam piping and control lines between temperature regulator
and preheater shall be factory assembled.

11A.2 One feedwater preheater outlet water vapor tension thermostat with well and
flexible armored tubing connected to the temperature regulator. Thermostat
shall be installed in preheater exit water piping by factory.

11A.3 One exit gas temperature vapor tension thermostat with flexible armored
tubing connected to temperature regulator. Thermostat shall be installed in
exit flue gas duct by contractor.

12. The economizers and corrosion control systems shall be warranted against defects in
material and workmanship for a period of one year after shipment.

13. The economizers, while in clean condition, shall be guaranteed to perform in accordance
with the manufacturer’s expected performance data for the design criteria indicated in
this specification.

14. Three sets of instruction manuals shall be furnished to the Engineer. The manuals shall
contain complete operating and maintenance instructions, manufacturer’s expected
performance data sheet, recommended minimum feedwater temperatures, ASME Code
Data Report, material certifications, nameplate facsimile, and economizer assembly
drawings.

15. Contractor shall furnish economizer assembly drawing and manufacturer’s expected
performance data sheet for approval by Engineer.
