A:If the gas steam generator performs various operations in strict accordance with the operation requirements during operation, and carries out regular inspection and maintenance, the service life can reach 10 years.
During the operation of the steam generator, corrosion is an important factor affecting the service life of the steam generator. If the operator makes mistakes or does not carry out maintenance work on time, the steam generator will corrode, which will make the steam generator The thickness of the furnace body becomes thinner, the thermal efficiency decreases, and the service life is shortened.
There are two main reasons for the corrosion of gas steam generators, namely flue gas corrosion and scale corrosion.
1. Flue gas corrosion
The number one cause of steam generator corrosion is flue gas. The steam generator needs fuel to burn, and the combustion process will inevitably produce flue gas. When the high-temperature flue gas passes through the wall of the steam generator, condensation will appear, and the formed condensed water will seriously corrode the metal surface.
2. Scale corrosion
Another major cause of steam generator corrosion is scale corrosion. For example, if the kettle we use for boiling water is used for a long time, scale will appear inside the kettle. First, it will affect the quality of drinking water, and second, it will take longer to boil a pot of water. The steam generator is much larger than the kettle, and if corrosion occurs, it will be very harmful.
It is recommended that enterprises that use gas steam generators must choose standardized and reliable manufacturers when purchasing gas steam generators. The water used in steam generators must also be softened, so as to ensure the safe production of steam generators. make it more durable.
