Main details
Featured details
Engineering of the heating equipment revamping
Heating equipment based on “radiant roof” with burners on roof and burning with preheated air. The system on roof gives better heating uniformity
Revamping of the charging system, originally done by open back wall, it was changed by lateral charging by rolls
Natural gas as main fuel
Low NOx burners
Heat recuperator for a better energy efficiency and lower fuel consumption
Scope of supply
Heating equipment with burners on roof and heat recuperator
Control equipment by PLC and Level 2
