JC-15D Panel

When flue gas temperature increases, boiler efficiency decreases. A mere 40F increase in flue gas temperature causes an approximate 1% drop in boiler efficiency. Large flue gas temperature increases can be an indication of boiler overheating. Boiler accident insurance claims show that boiler overheating causes three out of every four accidents. The Preferred Instruments' JC-15F provides 24 hour monitoring of the boiler flue gas temperature.

 

Indicating Instruments
