316L anti corrosion and anti wear steel erosion shields

Service life

The service life of boiler tube erosion shields is different in different types of boilers and different use parts. The normal service life is a period of overhaul (3-5 years) for the boiler. Generally, some boilers will be replaced or retrofitted every time the boiler is overhauled. The main replacements are those of the boiler tube erosion shields that are severely thinned and exceeded the standard; those that were not firmly detached during the boiler operation during the previous installation. According to the wear of the boiler tube erosion shields during replacement, if the thickness is severely reduced, it needs to be replaced, the deformation is severe, and those that cannot protect the tube also need to be replaced. In addition, some boiler tubes are not equipped with boiler tube erosion shields, but during the boiler inspection, it is found that the tubes have a tendency to wear and thinning. Generally, boiler tube erosion shields are also installed to prevent further wear of the tubes and cause serious consequences such as boiler explosions.

On the heating surface of superheated and the economizer tube bundle of the boiler, in order to prevent the pipe from being worn by high temperature flue gas washing, boiler tube erosion shields are mostly arranged on the outer side of the pipe in the direction of flue gas flow. The elbow erosion shields solves the abrasion problems of water wall tubes, superheater tubes, economizer tubes and reheater tubes in the furnace, and provides a guarantee for the long-term and reliable operation of CFB boiler. With the increase of CFB boiler products, the type and quantity of the elbow erosion shields will increase.
