Control and Safety Devices for Steam Boilers

We have learnt in the previous unit that steam is the most economical and convenient source of heat energy and has been adapted by all the milk processing plants. You have also known about the principles of generating steam, different types of steam and their heat contents and how the necessary calculations are made to estimate the amount of steam required for a given milk processing operation. We haveunderstood the general constructional features of a boiler, in which the steam is g enerated. The Boiler occupies such an important place in dairy plant that much of plant’s successful operation depends upon its unfaltering performance The safety and satisfactory working of a boiler largely depends upon the reliability of several component units, which are mounted on the body of the boiler. These devices are primarily intended for the safety of boiler and control of its operation.In the foregoing no discussion has been made about these devices, so in this unit we shall discuss various essential boiler mountings in detail.
