Requirements
Economiser water outlet temperature |
|
The design conditions shall be such that the maximum
outlet water temperature of the economiser shall be
at least 40°F below the saturated steam temperature
in the boiler drum:
Provided that this requirement shall not apply to economisers
used on low pressure water heating systems working at
pressure less than 120 ft. head of water.
