The nine-model RBC range of horizontal wet back fire tube boilers features capacities from 957 to 4787kg/h and operating efficiencies in excess of 90% (net CV) Fulton Sales and Marketing Director Gordon Bareham says the new RBC range was developed in response to a demand from customers for higher capacities than the practical maximum of 960kg/h for the company's vertical range

Boiler claims high operating efficiency
The Pulse Plus boiler claims its many unique features give it advantages over other modern boilers.
"With the introduction of the RBC range we have refined and improved existing horizontal boiler technology.
They are built to the same exacting standards as our vertical boilers to provide maximum efficiency, reliability and long life".
The RBC range, which is designed for applications throughout the processing industry, can be specified with matched Nu-way oil, gas or dual fuel burners as standard, with other burners available on request.
The boilers meet current and expected legislation and have been engineered to provide a substantial performance margin.
They are constructed to BS2790, 1992 Class 1 standard with a maximum working pressure of 10.34bar.
Among the special features of the RBC range are 100% NDT of all shell, furnace and tube plate welds, a large steam space with low steam release velocities and large furnace volume for low emission levels.
Standard features include a fully opening front access door for easy maintenance and removable access panels on stainless steel casing to facilitate the statutory periodic insurance weld inspections.
The pressure vessel is covered by a three-year extendable warranty and, as with all Fulton boilers, the RB range is fully tested before leaving the works and is commissioned by Fulton engineers.
Commenting on one of the major advantages of specifying Fulton boilers, Bareham says: "Unlike many companies, we take overall responsibility for projects from initial design, through to production, delivery, commissioning and the all important long-term service support people have come to expect of Fulton".
