Overview of the BSB Series Boilers
The BSB Series boilers are designed specifically to utilize whole, large cylindrical straw bales for fuel, supporting sustainable energy use for mid-sized and large facilities. The system efficiently handles straw bales with diameters ranging from 1.20m to 2.40m and weights up to 380 kg, with an ideal moisture content of 20%. Using a forklift, straw is loaded into the combustion chamber twice a day, with initial ignition done manually. The design ensures minimal manual intervention and easy maintenance.
System Features and Operation
Efficient Combustion and Heat Utilization
After manual ignition, flue gases generated from combustion are routed through a series of tubes to maximize heat extraction before exiting through the chimney. The chimney passes through the core of an accumulating hot water tank (sold separately), where the hot water is then supplied for heating, drying, grain processing, or other applications.
Accumulative Hot Water Tanks (Optional)
We offer fully insulated, cladded accumulating tanks with volumes of 5,000 to 100,000 liters to maximize system efficiency. For detailed specifications and pricing, please contact us.
Advanced Automatic Regulation
Our BSB boilers feature an advanced automatic control system developed by our UK partner, complying with EU environmental standards. The system regulates combustion based on real-time oxygen levels in the exhaust (measured by a lambda sensor) and optimizes the airflow within the combustion chamber to maintain optimal combustion.
- Temperature Control: The water outlet temperature can be adjusted from 60°C to 90°C (standard setpoint at 85°C). Once the desired temperature is reached, the fan and dampers close to conserve heat.
- Optimal Flue Gas Temperature: For peak efficiency, the flue gas temperature should remain between 200°C and 250°C.
- Corrosion Prevention: To avoid corrosion, the water inlet temperature must not drop below 65°C. A shunt valve with hot water recirculation is automatically controlled to maintain this minimum.
Safety Mechanisms
For enhanced safety, a gas spring-supported explosion relief door is included to manage small combustion chamber explosions effectively.
Key Benefits of the BSB Series Boilers
- Eco-Friendly: CO₂ emissions meet the latest EU standards.
- Ease of Use: Simple loading, firing, and maintenance process.
- High Efficiency: Achieves an efficiency of 83% (up to an additional 5% with tank and chimney integration).
- Automatic Functionality: Automatic standby when fuel is depleted and auto shutdown to prevent heat loss.
- Durability and Safety: Features include a 50cm clearance around the unit, a 2m workspace in front, and explosion relief mechanisms.
- Customizable Design: Available with external corrugated "LINDAB" cladding in custom colors.
- Extended Combustion Chamber: Available on request for longer combustion periods.
Installation Guidelines
- Foundation Requirements: A secure foundation is recommended for safe forklift loading.
- Installation Space: The boiler requires a leveled concrete base with at least 50 cm clearance around it for efficient cleaning and maintenance.
- Working Area: Ensure 2 meters of free space in front of the boiler door to facilitate safe operation.
Included Components
Unless specified otherwise, the BSB boiler system package includes:
- Pipe connections to both the accumulation tank and stack
- Cleaning brush
- Operating manual and warranty card
