APPLICATION:
This CHALLENGER® CCUE407-S "Steam" Thermal Combustion Unit provides steam to heat greenhouse operations.
This system is equipped with PCC Controls, Extended Combustion Zone and Auto De-Ash. Also included in the system is Fuel-Screening Equipment, 50 cubic yard Live Auger Bottom Storage Bin, Multi-Clone Collector, and 200HP, 150 psig Steam Boiler.
With PCC Controls, the system will automatically stay within 3 to 5 degrees of the customer's desired temperature. Fuel feed motors, combustion fans and induced draft fan all run on variable frequency drives to ensure the proper mix of combustion air to fuel. The unit will adjust itself automatically according to its load demand.
CHALLENGER®'s advanced Auto De-Ash System eliminates downtime and labor costs by removing ash from the system automatically. It is also much safer.
The Extended Combustion Zone provides additional dwell time for the combustion of any unwanted particulates and emissions before they are able to exit the system, making the process much cleaner, which reduces maintenance time and costs.
The combustion unit itself, like all CHALLENGER® Combustion Units, is equipped with high temperature cast refractory ceramic lining for longer life. This cast refractory/ceramic lining was designed to be completely modular, which makes for easy repair and replacement.
FUEL SOURCE:
This CHALLENGER® Combustion Unit burns whole tree chips and green sawmill chips/sawdust.
SAVINGS:
This greenhouse operation has whole tree chips delivered at very low or no cost. They also purchase processed biomass fuel from local sawmills at a much lower cost than that of fossil fuels, providing a greater return on investment. The installation of this CHALLENGER® Thermal Combustion System has allowed the customer to control its costly heating bills.
