Fifty years after introducing its vertical tubeless boiler, Fulton Boiler Works (GB) Limited has launched the VMP, a new range of vertical boilers combining high output and efficiency with a small footprint and low maintenance.
The seven-model range of vertical multi-port tubeless steam boilers features Fulton’s latest innovation – multi-port thick walled pipes with removable, full-length turbulators that provide uniform heat transfer and speed up boiler start time. The Schedule 80 constructed exhaust pipes also reduce maintenance by eliminating the need to replace worn or broken tubes.
The VMP range, which is also equipped with a Fulton designed and manufactured LoNOx power burner, which fires down the full length of the furnace, can be supplied with gas, oil or dual-fuel fired burners. Outputs range from 80 to 150 hp (784 to 1471 kW), with a maximum fuel-to-steam operating efficiency of 85%.
The new high-output VMP bridges the gap between the company’s existing J Series vertical boiler and its horizontal RBC boiler, and is ideal for applications where the high output of the RBC is required with the smaller footprint of a vertical boiler.
