Equipment
Stoker Base
The stoker consists of steel base with factory installed:
The chain travels over the sprockets mounted at the front of the stoker. The stoker chain links are cast from a special high heat resistant cast iron. Chain links are designed to transport most of the Solid Fuels during the combustion process.
The stoker base is constructed of 0.250" (or thicker) mild steel. The stoker walls are lined with two layers of High Temperature insulation (for a total thickness of 4"). The use of multi-layer insulation assures low stoker surface temperature. The primary part of the combustion chamber is lined with 9" firebrick. The remaining part of the combustion chamber is lined with 9" refractory. The use of firebrick and refractory combined with high temperature insulation guarantees good heat radiation, which enhances fuel combustion.
The back of the stoker base is equipped with hinged, large access door c/w sight glass. The door (lined with refractory) provides an easy access to the combustion chamber for periodic inspections. Large (4" diameter) sight glass enables to view Solid Fuel combustion without opening the back door.
The chain grate is driven by a hydraulic motor, which enables it to move at a very low speed. The main advantage of the moving chain grate is that the fuel falls on the chain grate, and combustion is completed as it moves slowly through the base. The ash remains on the grate and falls onto the main ash removal auger as the grate turns around.
