Part No. 750-184
The IFGR system mixes a portion of the relatively cool flue gas from
the exit of the fourth-pass tubes with the incoming combustion air
to reduce the furnace flame temperature, thereby reducing NOx
emissions. In this approach, the combustion air fan handles both
the combustion air and the recirculated flue gases. Accordingly, this
method is called Induced Flue Gas Recirculation (IFGR), because
the flue gas is “induced” into the fan inlet.
The LE option, with its various levels of IFGR systems, can affect
the selection of the combustion air fan, motor, burner, and other
components. Several different system configurations are available,
depending on the requirements for NOx emissions and the fuels
used. All systems use similar primary components, but may have
different linkage controls, IFGR damper, fan, and motor sizes.
Always order genuine Cleaver-Brooks parts from your local Cleaver-
Brooks authorized representative.
The boiler and related equipment installation are to be in
compliance with the standards of the National Board of Fire
Underwriters. Installation should also conform to state and local
codes governing such equipment. Prior to installation, the proper
authorities having jurisdiction are to be consulted, permits
obtained, etc. All boilers in the above series comply, when equipped
with optional equipment, to Industrial Risk Insurers (IRI), Factory
Mutual (FM), or other insuring underwriters requirements.
B. THE BOILER
The Model CB/CB-LE boiler is a packaged firetube boiler of welded
steel construction and consists of a pressure vessel, burner, burner
controls, forced draft fan, damper, air pump, refractory, and
appropriate boiler trim.
The horsepower rating of the boiler is indicated by the numbers
following the fuel series. Thus, CB700-200 indicates a gas-fired
200 hp boiler.
The firetube construction provides some characteristics that
differentiate it from other boiler types. Because of its vessel size, the
firetube contains a large amount of water, allowing it to respond to
load changes with minimum variation in steam pressure.
Firetube boilers are rated in boiler horsepower (BHP), which should
not be confused with other horsepower measurements.
Hot water is commonly used in heating applications with the boiler
supplying water to the system at 180
°
F to 220
°
F. The operating
pressure for hot water heating systems usually is 30 psig to 125
psig.
Steam boilers are designed for low pressure or high pressure
applications. Low pressure boilers are limited to 15 psig design, and
are typically used for heating applications. High pressure boilers are
typically used for process loads and can have a design pressure of
75 to 350 psig.
