PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS FOR EXTENDING LIFESPAN AND AVOIDING MALFUNCTIONS
In the field of industrial waste gas treatment, thermal storage incinerators (RTOs) have become one of the mainstream equipment for VOCs treatment due to their high efficiency and energy-saving advantages. However, even the most advanced equipment requires scientific maintenance and management to ensure long-term stable operation. As a professional RTO equipment supplier, Three Ladder Environment has summarized the following practical maintenance suggestions based on years of service experience to help you reduce failure rates and extend equipment lifespan.
1. Regular inspection: prevent problems before they occur
The stable operation of RTO system relies on daily inspections. Suggest that enterprises establish a multi-level maintenance system of "daily inspection+weekly inspection+monthly inspection":
Daily inspection: observe whether the temperature curve of the combustion chamber is normal, record the operating current and pressure difference data of the fan;
Weekly inspection: Clean the air inlet filter, check the sealing of the valve to avoid blockage or leakage;
Monthly inspection: testing safety interlock devices (such as flame detectors, temperature sensors), calibrating instrument accuracy.
Tip: The three ladder RTO equipment is equipped with an intelligent monitoring system that can push real-time abnormal alarms, greatly reducing the pressure of manual inspection.
2. Maintenance of key components: Focus on core processes
(1) Maintenance of Thermal Storage Ceramic Body
Regularly check whether the ceramic body is damaged or blocked (sudden increase in pressure difference is a typical signal);
(2) Combustion system maintenance
Clean the carbon deposits on the burner nozzle to ensure the effectiveness of gas atomization;
Check the spacing between ignition electrodes and replace aging components in a timely manner.
(3) Valves and seals
Replace the sealing ring of the switching valve to prevent air leakage;
Periodically reapply high-temperature sealant.
3. Data recording and analysis: using data-driven decision-making
It is recommended that enterprises establish RTO operation files, with a focus on recording:
✅ Daily energy consumption data (gas/electricity)
✅ Fluctuations in key temperature points
✅ VOCs removal rate detection results
By comparing data vertically, potential issues can be identified in advance. For example:
Decreased heat recovery efficiency → may indicate ceramic blockage
Gas consumption increases → Need to check burner or insulation layer
Remember, careful maintenance of RTO equipment is not only responsible for the equipment, but also a guarantee of enterprise efficiency. Every careful inspection and detailed data record contribute to the long-term stable operation of the equipment.
