Advantages
Tube shields are custom made to fit perfectly to straight sections, curved sections and even finned and specialised tubing.
Boiler tube erosion shields, also known as anti-corrosion shields, anti-wear plate, anti-wear protection shields, anti-wear cover plate, anti-corrosion cover plate, boiler climbing pipe, anti-wear pressure plate, etc. , which are used in combination with snap rings.
Boiler tube erosion shields are produced using a high-pressure press and professional mould pressing. The production time is short, the welding performance is good, the welding should not fall off, the surface is smooth, and the appearance is beautiful. Boiler tube erosion shields with bends are formed by pressing on a press or bending with a special abrasive on a tube bender.
Boiler tube shields are designed to eliminate major maintenance and downtime costs from boiler and condenser tube failure.
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.
Application
Tube erosion shields are mainly used on the windward side of the heating surface of the boiler, such as superheaters, reheaters, economizers, and water-cooled wall pipes. The main role is to protect the heating surface of the boiler pipes, reduce pipeline wear, and increase the heating surface of the pipes.
Erosion shields are used to protect boiler tubing from the highly erosive effects of high temperatures and pressures thereby greatly extending tube life.
We offer shielding for tubing, covering straight, bent and finned sections, as well as the clips that hold these in place.
In the long term, these shields more than pay for themselves, preventing the costly replacement of tubing and avoiding the downtime that results from tube breakdown and leaks.
In general, most of them are called “wear-resistant tile” and “wear-resistant cover plate”. Erosion Shields are special boiler accessories.
Generally, most of them are used in power station boilers, small boilers are used less, and some coal chemical industries will also use them.
