NUK-HP®
High pressure steam boiler system
for closed steam/condensate cycle
for process heating plants
Virtually no maintenanceThere are no pumps, no con-densate fittings and no feed-water system, nor is clarificationrequired. There is no danger ofcorrosion due to entry of oxygenfrom the ambient air into thesystem is not possible.
Other advantages• Efficient, non-toxic pro-
cessing heating system.
• Very low flow resis-tance in the verticalevaporator pipes toguarantee high watercirculating rates.
• Low radiation load inthe combustion cham-ber and a large con-vection heating surface.That means steam bub-ble formation in the pipesystem is therefore verylow. Controlled heattransmission at the heat-ing surfaces is guaran-teed and high combus-tion efficiency is achieved.
• No refractory material inthe combustion chamber,thus preventing heatstorage and uncontrolledevaporation in the eventof an emergency shut-down.
• Bursting disc and safetyvalve as the systemprotection against over-pressure and vacuum.
• 72-hour operation withoutsupervision. Pressure, boiler-water minimum level and fluegas temperature are perma-nently monitored by a safetycontrol system.
• The reliability of operation ofthe NUK-HP® is verified in anexpertise by internationallyrecognised specialists.
NUK-HP® product series hasbeen developed and gives fol-lowing additional advantages: • Differentiated, customized
capacity grading• free space and area around the
burner, and therefore goodworking during commissioningand maintenance
• Substantial reduced numberof welding seams at the pro-duction of the tube system, by that a higher operationalreliability and durability
Reduced operating costsThe NUK-HP® is a high-pressurenatural circulation boiler operat-ing by the gravity circulationprinciple. Therefore circulatingpumps are not required to oper-ate the NUK-HP®. Boiler water isused as the heat carrier. Thewater is evaporated in this boiler within a hermetically closed cir-cuit. The steam flows to the heatexchanger and the condensateflows by gravity back to the boiler.
No steam bubble blockage in theNUK-HP®. Water circulation isalways guaranteed in all opera-ting modes, even with rapidlychanging operating pressures.No steam bubble blockages ari-se in the vertical rising tubes.The heating surfaces consist ofvertical, coaxially arranged risertubes which form a high-efficien-cy 3-pass flue gas system.
Alternating load states in boilersystems consisting of pipe coilsin a spiral arrangement canresult in steam bubble blockageswhich, in turn, can interrupt thewater circulation. This invariablyresults in critical operating statesin the boiler pipe system.
The hermetically closed steam-condensate-circuit system
• Equipped and produced inaccordance with the EuropeanCommunity technical rules(PED 97/23/EC), and otherworld-wide acceptance organ-izations (e. g. SELO, ASMEGOST-R, ROSTECHNADZOR).

DesignThe NUK-HP® consists of verticalrising tubes connected to a topand bottom collector. The risertubes are welded to cylindricaltube baskets. Two baskets andthe boiler shell are the basis ofthe boiler system. Flue gas flowis conducted in the 3-pass-flueparallel-counter-flow principle.
Monitoring instrumentsThe NUK-HP® is equipped withall the necessary safety devicesspecified by the correspondingsafety regulations. This equip-ment guarantees safe and relia-ble operation and ensures thatthe boiler is shut down in theevent of a fault.
Standard equipment • 2 electrodes in self-controlled
mode to monitor the minimumwater level, redundant wired
• 1 pressure switch to monitormaximum operating pressure
• 1 flue-gas temperature sensorto limit the maximum flue gastemperature
• 1 spring-loaded safety valve • 1 rupture disc with pressure
monitoring device • 1 pressure gauge with shut-off
valve and testing flange
All safety equipments are cor-responding to the rules of the European Community and aretested by the notified body TÜV.
Moreover, any items of equipmentcan be adapted to the regulationsin force in the country in whichthe boiler is to operate.
BurnerThe NUK-HP® can be equippedwith burners for high speed die-sel, heavy fuel oil, natural gas,LPG, biogas and bio diesel orusing a dual fuel burners.
The choice of burner dependsupon the boiler capacity, the fueland the demands expected ofcapacity control.
The capacity can be controlledby different controlling systems: 2-stage: High / low / off or modulating
ControlThe capacity can be controlledby different controlling systems.• Pressure control:
The capacity of the NUK-HP®
and the saturated steam pres-sure is controlled independ-ently of product temperature (e. g. vegetable oil).
• Cascade control:The capacity of the NUK-HP®
is controlled according to pro-duct temperature (e. g. vegeta-ble oil). The saturated steampressure is adapted in a defined range of controlaccording to the heat require-ment of the heat exchanger (e. g. vegetable oil) the product temperature.
Permanent Monitoring • Boiler water minimum level• Steam pressure • Flue gas temperature• Burner control

Complete workshop pre-assembling
The NUK-HP® is supplied as acomplete boiler system readyfor operation. Boiler assemblingon site is not necessary. Theburner, controls and safety de-vices and the switchboard arealready pre-mounted on theNUK-HP® ready for operation.All the electrical connectingcables between the burner, theinstrumentation and the switch-board are fully pre-wired oncable bars ready for operation.
The freestanding switchboardcan be set up near the GekaKonus® NUK-HP®. The electric connection occursabout marked industry plug-inconnector.
Before the NUK-HP® leaves ourworkshop, the boiler with allequipment is checked by logicand electrical functional test. This test ensures that all possi-ble faults in the equipment aredefinitely eliminated.
