Industrial furnaces require periodic maintenance to ensure efficiency and continued operation. Much of this maintenance can be performed by properly trained plant technicians, rather than relying on outside support. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Depending on size and design, your furnace probably has two main input lines: one for natural gas (or some other combustible gas), and one for air. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Filtration on these lines is key to the continued operation of the downstream parts, like regulators and shut-off valves. Over time, these filters may become clogged with debris. How often they need to be cleaned (or the filter media changed) depends on plant conditions and system design. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your combustion schematic ought to show you how much pressure to expect in each line, and you can check this during operation using a manometer. If you’re not getting enough pressure at the burner(s), it’s a good chance there’s debris clogging one of these filters. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without the required gas and air pressures, your burner(s) cannot perform at their rated capacity, and your product could suffer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keeping your filters clean by checking them regularly helps to ensure proper furnace operation and long component life!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
