New & Improved
There have been many new developments in the
industry over the past few years and we thought
we would bring you up to date on
several in this issue. For more information on
any of the products or services in this volume,

Nebraska Boiler
Cleaver Brooks purchased Nebraska Boilers 6 years
ago and after some initial growing pains, have man-
aged to
dominate the industrial
boiler market with over
80% market share in the
size ranges 250,000 lb/hr
and under. Cleaver
Brooks/
Nebraska Boilers offer
D, O & A style boilers
in welded as well as tangent tube design. Cleaver
Brooks investment into the Nebraska facility
includes an expansion of the plant, new tube
bending department and a new drum drilling
machine. I would challenge anyone to find a
better-made boiler.
Natcom
Shortly after Cleaver Brooks purchased Nebraska
Boilers they went looking for technology based
companies that would complement their product
line and low
and behold
they found
one and in all
places, Mont-
real. Natcom
was pur-
chased and
first intro-
duced to the
Nebraska product line and later to the rest of the
product offering. Natcom brings to the table
advanced burner technology in the 20 to 600
million btu’s range and as low as 9 ppm emissions.
The stainless steel construction center core
technology and hyper mix is revolutionizing the
burner industry. The Natcom burner is suitable for
new equipment or retrofit applications alike.
Truefire
The Truefire is a wetback, firetube, hot water boiler
offering 88% efficiency, reliability and
performance in a compact design. Sizes range from
30,000 to 3,000,000 btu/hr oil or gas firing, utilizing
on off, step and full modulation design, as well as
offering a 20 year pressure vessel warranty against
thermal shock and 7 years against low
water flow or burner flame impingement and up to
88% efficiency. This boiler is a great choice in both
retrofit application and new construction.
Clearfire

JULY 2003 SHOP TALKSHOP TALK
The Clearfire boiler is a
single pass, down fired,
full condensing capable
firetube boiler. It has
stainless steel tubes with
internal aluminum
(AluFer) extended heating
surfaces providing
exceptional heat transfer
and high efficiencies. The
boiler has a 20 year pres-
sure vessel warranty
against thermal shock cracking and has no
minimum return water temperature
requirements. It
guarantees a 98%
efficiency with 80ºF
return water
temperatures. The burner is fully modulating,
featuring 5:1 turndown, whisper quiet (70 DBA)
operation, sub 10 ppm Nox, ASME constructed and
manufactured to ISO 9001 standards.
Profire LN/NT
The Profire LN/NT is available in all the same sizes
as the standard burner and has all the same
capabilities except the
LN/NT have the abil-
ity to obtain sub 20
ppm NOx with sub 50
ppm Co @ 3% O2.
Profire
The Profire burner is
a available in sizes
from 1
million to 63
million btu’s and able to retrofit to any boiler. The
burner features forced draft air atomizing or
pressure atomizing designs. They are both UL and
cUL listed and conform to CSD-1 II and FM
requirements. The reverse curve fan offers low
motor horse power, self cleaning, low maintenance
costs, high resistance to stack draft fluctuations and
quiet operation. The burner has dual fuel capabili-
ties and can be fitted with parallel positioning, re-
mote oil pumps, inverted housing
arrangement, NEMA 4 or 12 components and steam
atomizing.
Level Master
The Level Master is a
new, one of a kind water
level control system. It
delivers an adaptable
package with enhanced safety features and an
extensive security system as well as the highest
degree of safety compared with the low water
cut-off devices on the market today. It eliminates
the snap acting/mercury switch debate. The visual
indication of level is far easier to see than on a con-
ventional gauge glass. Blow down reminder and
reporting assures proper maintenance/operation.
Auxiliary Low Water Cut Off testing assures proper
functioning of this important
control. Pre-warning of low/high water condition
can indicate various problems with the steam
system; valve leaks, pipe breaks, pump problems,
water pressure problems, steam pressure problems,
chemical problems, etc. Security code assures the
control level setting cannot be tampered with.
Self-checking electronics assure the control is work-
ing properly even when the boiler is off line! The
controller plugs in for ease of service…No
wiring! A simplistic, modular design saves on
maintenance inspection time, working in
conjunction with VSD to save energy costs! The
history log gives peace of mind (locally/remotely)
showing that this important control is functioning
properly and being maintained on a routine basis. It
gives us important information about the steam sys-
tem with indications of high and low water alarm-
ing, also records and stores history of last 999
alarms.
ICB Boiler
The ICB is a low cost alternative to multi-featured
boilers. It has a compact design and smaller
footprint versus wet back boilers. There are no con-
fined space entry issues with easy access to all tube
ends and there is no manway necessary for
access to reversing furnace. It is a 3 or 4 pass
arrangement with tube removal from either end.
V OLUME 5 , ISSUE 3 P AGE 2
Features include no restriction to water backed turn-
around chamber/reversing furnace and no
refractory in flue gas reversing chamber, with low
NOx burners available, highest efficiencies on the
market, liberal steam release area, davited front and
rear doors for easy access and well proportioned I/d
ratio.
Hawk ICS
The Hawk ICS is a boiler
management control
system, which integrates the
control function of burner se-
quencing and safety with fir-
ing rate, fuel-air ratio and op-
erating limit controls. Its fea-
tures include a
programmable controller, touch screen graphical
human machine interface monitors and displays
connected boiler parameters. It optimizes firing rate
control, alarm/fault indication and history, on-screen
fault diagnostics, night/day set back control and ther-
mal shock protection. It has remote modulation, re-
mote set point, assured low fire cut-off, assures start
permissive safety interlocking, high stack
temperature alarm and shutdown and boiler
efficiency calculations. The Hawk ICS optional
features include: colour graphics, e-mail and pager
alarm fault forwarding, fuel-air ratio control,
building/plant automation system interface, remote
internet monitoring and diagnostics, O2 monitoring
and trim, internet parts and service lookup. As well
as built-in two boiler lead/lag control, lead/lag
capability for multiple boiler systems, variable speed
drive on combustion air fan and diagnostic annuncia-
tion. The Hawk ICS maximizes system efficiency,
incorporates an expandable PLC and 10” touch
screen graphical interface, is user friendly and easy
to set up. It reduces cycling and boiler wear, thereby
reducing maintenance and downtime costs. It opti-
mizes fuel savings, provides auto
rotation (bases on elapsed run-time) or manual
rotation of boilers sequencing, tracts elapse run-time
since last rotation, has configurable start point for
lead/lag modulation and configurable firing rate con-
trol, Internet communications, common point for e-
mail and alphanumeric paging of alarms from all
connected boilers. Dual set points, outdoor reset of
hot water boilers and a common connection point to
indicate readouts and alarms from common boiler
room control systems, such as feedwater and/or
deaerator systems.

Company History
The Ceilcote Corporation
began operating in 1926 as a
supplier of industrial
corrosion resistant materials
beginning with a corrosion
resistant lining for acid pickling tanks. Since that
time, Ceilcote has introduced a wide range of
products to the industrial marketplace including tank
linings, protective coatings, reinforced plastic
process vessels, filamentous tower packing,
corrosive air handling fans, and air pollution control
equipment and systems.
Beginning in 1956, Ceil-
cote pioneered the
development and
manufacture of reinforced
plastic corrosion resistant
equipment, such as pipe
tanks, and fume handling
systems. In 1960, Ceilcote
entered the air pollution control equipment
business through extension of its process equipment
fabrication capabilities. Through innovative product
development, Ceilcote introduced Tellerette Tower
Packing to the market in the early 1960’s and fiber-
glass reinforced plastic fans for corrosive fume han-
dling in 1966. Later product introductions include:
chevron blade mist eliminators, rod-bed venturi
scrubbers, eductor
venturi scrubbers, sieve tray scrubbers, improved
versions of Tellerette Tower Packing (our Type-K);
and our ionizing wet scrubber systems (IWS). More
recent product additions include Interel packaged
scrubbers and licenses for fluid bed scrubber
technology and point-of use scrubbers for the
semiconductor industry.
