An easy-to-operate system on ships is a marine boiler. However, it needs correct operating procedures and the highest standards of safety precautions. It is important to ensure that the boiler system is operated within the safety limits always. To operate the marine boiler in a safe and efficient manner, it is important to remember the following dos and don’ts. The dos-
• To continue the heat exchanging ability of the boiler tubes, make sure to perform a soot blow for the boiler tube. • Lubricate and grease all the boiler mechanical links and parts at regular intervals of time. • To see the combustion quality, check the boiler trunk’s smoke coming out of the ship’s funnel, often. • Ensure to check that the emergency shut down of the boiler is working fine. • This high-pressure machinery comes with its own set of prescribed firefighting equipment. Check the working of the high-pressure jet fog system and the local fire extinguisher. • Make sure that the safety valves, steam valves, and all the fuel line valves are working well. • Keep an eye on the furnace for fuel dripping and refractory deterioration near the burner assembly. The defects should be attended to at the earliest. The don’ts- • When the boiler is working at a high load, never operate a soot blow system. • When a water tube is leaking, never operate the boiler. • Remember not to include seawater in any situation.Shut down the plant and fix the problem immediately if you find that the hot well is filled with seawater. • Never trust the water level indicator that is located at a remote position. To achieve a clear picture, keep a check through the local gauge glass. • Never ever skip the periodic maintenance of the boiler and its auxiliaries. If you do, it will decrease the boiler’s efficiency after a certain period of time. • Whether it’s flame quality, smoke, sound, or any other boiler parameters, don’t ignore any odd observation in the boiler system. • Avoid keeping the boiler’s furnace door open unnecessarily.
