When it comes to industrial applications that require limited steam generation, small industrial boilers offer a reliable and cost-effective solution. These boilers are specially designed to meet specific operational requirements while adhering to regulatory standards, particularly the Indian Boiler Regulations (IBR).

What is a Small Industrial Boiler and how is it different from IBR Boilers?

As per the Indian Boiler Regulations (IBR), a small industrial boiler is a shell-and-tube type boiler generating steam under working pressure up to 7 kg/cm² and having a volumetric capacity exceeding 25 litres but not exceeding 500 litres. For Small Industrial Boilers, a certified IBR operator is not essential as per the law.

Boilers which have a volumetric capacity exceeding 500 litres and / or generates steam under working pressure above 10.54 kg/cm² are considered as IBR Boilers. In addition, all IBR Boilers must be operated by a certified IBR operator as per the law.

Key Features of Small Industrial Boilers

1. Compact Design

Small industrial boilers are designed to save space, making them an ideal solution for industries with limited space but high steam requirements. Their compact nature ensures that they can be easily installed in tight spaces without compromising performance.

2. Lower Pressure and Capacity

While large-scale industrial boilers can generate steam at higher pressures, small industrial boilers are designed for operations at low pressure.

3. High Efficiency

Small industrial boilers are built to ensure high operational efficiency. They are optimized for quick heat-up times, minimizing fuel consumption, and maximizing the output of steam.

4. Regulatory Compliance

One of the primary feature of these boilers is that they are designed to meet IBR compliance. This ensures the boiler meets safety standards and adheres to strict regulatory guidelines for safe operation.

5. Cost-Effective Solution

Because of their smaller size and simpler design, small industrial boilers are generally more affordable than their larger counterparts. This makes them a popular choice for industries looking to reduce operational costs without compromising on reliability.

Advantages of Small Industrial Boilers

Flexibility: Small industrial boilers can be tailored to meet the specific needs of smaller industries or applications with limited steam requirements.

Ease of Maintenance: Due to their compact design, these boilers require less maintenance and can be serviced quickly and efficiently.

Energy Efficiency: These boilers are designed to be highly energy-efficient, minimizing fuel consumption and reducing environmental impact.

Operator Requirements: Small industrial boilers do not require IBR licensed operator.
