In 2012 Parker Boiler provided and started up three (3) TC600L High Efficiency Condensing Boilers for this 150 million-dollar facility dedicated to film preservation.

These Boilers, with inputs of 2,000 MBTU each, are precertified for compliance with the South Coast Air Quality Management Dis-trict’s Rule 1146.2 and Parker Boiler guarantees compliance with the required 20 ppm NOx and 400 ppm CO (corrected to 3% O₂) emission levels.

No SCAQMD permits, source testing, or monitoring were required. The owner’s only involvement with the SCAQMD is a minimal fee for their Rule 222 filing.

The ultra-high efficiency condensing type Parker Boilers provide heat for the very temperature sensitive environment needed to house these cinematic treasures. The boilers are provided with state of the art Honeywell SOLA type combustion controls, lead lag, BAS/EMCS interface with Modbus connectivity and featuring touch screen displays.

Parker Boiler is providing the Annual Tune Ups on the job and 4 years in, the boilers are running great.

Pictured on the right is the Laundry Facility oper-ated by the Kalispel Indian Tribe, sold by Rick Hall at Western State Design.

It is the largest healthcare laundry in Eastern Wash-ington, using a pair of Parker Boiler 90HP 150 PSI Steam Boilers. They built a new healthcare laundry from the ground up. A new Milnor plus flow 150 lb. 8 pocket tunnel as well as several smaller pocket washers were installed at the facility, which use tempered water, hot water and direct steam injection. The Pulse Tunnel saves on water and utilites by using less than .6 gallons of wa-ter per lb of laundry, while the old system demanded 2.5 gallons. They needed steam for the CBW, ironers, steam tunnel, and they wanted redundancy in case one went down. Curtis Bash operates the laundry which does thousands of pounds per day for all the hospitals and other healthcare facilities in the region.

9PPM WITH PARKER G2304RLIn 2016 Parker Boiler started nine (9) G2304RL Hot Water Boilers for a large South-ern California defense firm. The three (3) sets of boilers were all provided with Parkerview Lead Lag Panels for boiler control, isolation valve control and interface with the building management system on the job. The large firm wanted Ultra Low NOx Boilers to meet site emission reduction targets.

To meet this stringent 9 ppm NOx requirement Parker Boiler utilized a Siemens LMV parallel positioning system controlling air via fan VFD and gas via a butterfly valve servo motor.

Source testing verified the 9ppm performance and the site was able to bank all emission credits.

This Parker Boiler TC1000L (3,754,000 BTUH input) high efficiency condensing boiler is one of the most efficient and lowest emis-sion boilers available in today’s market. The boiler was installed at Hoover High School in Glendale, CA this year by ACCO. It was permitted and source tested at less than 9ppm NOx and 50ppm CO (corrected at 3% O₂). This ultra high efficiency boiler can run at efficiencies of over 95%. This unit qualifies for a rebate of over $10,000.00 from the Gas Company.

Sy Lee Associates, Inc. of Glendale, designed the mechanical retrofit which included Boiler, Chiller, Control, and Pump Upgrades.

The Boiler provides heat for a major portion of this large high school campus.

In 2016 Parker Boiler provided a number of boilers fired on Digester Gas Fuel. The number one application for these boilers is Wastewater Treatment Plants. In some cases, natural gas can be used as a standby fuel and in other cases oil or liquid propane gas are also used. These boilers present a challenge due to the dual fuel capability in the changing heating value of the digester fuel as well as its impurities.

Pictured on the right are two TC350 digester gas and natural gas fired boilers provided for the Fargo Waste Water Treatment Plant. The boilers utilize low pressure digester fuel hence they were equipped with large stainless steel digester gas fuel trains. These two boil-ers were sold by RM Cotton and were provided with a Parkerview Lead Lag System. The boilers utilize a Sie-mens LMV parallel positioning system with automatic fuel changeover.

Proper Boiler Venting For Paker BoilersIn 2016 the State of Texas began red tagging some boiler installations because the type of vent system installed did not comply with the National Fuel Gas Code (NFGC) and or the Manufactures required vent type. This is a costly situation as many boiler owners are having to replace the vent system, particularly on small steam boilers.

The issue here is the building construction materials near the vent can over heat and cause a fire. In many cases boilers that should have been vented with 1000˚F Chimney are vented with Type B Vent.

The following are the definitions regarding types of appliance vents.

Appliance Category

Appliance Category Definition Vent Pressure Temperature Difference (Flue Temp - Dew Point)

Comment

I An appliance that operates with a nonpositive vent static pressure and with a vent gas temperature that avoids excessive condensate

production in vent. (It may be fan-assisted with an integral fan.)

Non-Positive Over 140°F Natural Draft BoilersGastight vent not required.

II An appliance that operates with a nonpositive vent static pressure and with a vent gas temperature that can cause excessive conden-

sate production in the vent.

Non-Positive Under 140°F Materials must be corrosion resistant. Condensate must be

drained.

III An appliance that operates with a positive vent static pressure

and with a vent gas temperature that avoids excessive condensate

production in the vent.

Positive Over 140°F Forced Draft BoilersVent must be gastight.

IV An appliance that operates with a positive vent static pressure and with a vent gas temperature that can cause excessive condensate

production in the vent.

Positive Under 140°F Condensing Forced Draft Boilers

Vent must be liquid and gastight. Condensate must be

drained.The following summary provides guidance regarding selecting the proper vent material for Parker Boilers:

1. UL or ETL Listed Parker Gas Fired Boilers with Draft Hoods These boilers are suitable for use with a Category I Type “B” gas vent and should be installed per our General and Basic Installation Instructions, the Vent Manufacturer’s instructions and applicable Code Requirements.

2. Parker Boilers with Barometric Dampers In many cases these boilers must be connected to suitable chimneys. A UL Listed factory built chimney may be used on these boilers or in some cases with proper clearance a 10-gauge steel chimney can be installed. These chimneys must be installed in accordance with the terms of their listing, the Manufacturer’s instructions and applicable Code Requirements. Chimney 1000°F or 1400°F - Either factory built & listed or 10 gauge. Both need proper installation. Exceptions: a. Parker 201-T series “R” and “LR” Model Hot Water Boilers (“T___R”) and (“T___LR”). Equipped with heat reclaimer. b. Parker Waterwall Hot Water Boilers 204 series (“G___R”) and (“G___RL”) models when “H” stamped for hot water service. Both of these boiler types have been tested by an approved Nationally Recognized Test Lab and because of low stack temperature, quality for Category 1 Type “B” gas vent even if equipped with barometric dampers.

Note: Oil Fired Boilers & Waterwall Hot Water Boilers 204 series, when “S” stamped, require chimneys.

3. Thermal Fluid Heaters Whether equipped with a draft hood or barometric damper, both types require a chimney.

4. Parker TC-205 Series Condensing Boiler These boilers require a Category IV condensing type special vent. Refer to Boiler O&M Manual.

For detailed guidelines for vent type, design and installation refer to General Basic Installation Instructions Vents Section and Local Code Require-ments or contact Parker Boiler.

After the Long Beach Fab-ricare show, our National Sales Manager Mike Leem-ing had members of TCATA (Textile Care and Trades As-sociation) where he serves as Executive VP of Machin-ery Division, tour the Parker Factory in August 2016.

PARKER BOILER’S PURCHASING MANAGER RETIRES

Bob started at Parker Boiler in 1968 after he served our coun-try in Vietnam. He has worked in crating, the assembly department and as a stockroom clerk. He re-tired as Purchasing Manager and Parts Boiler Guru. Bob is the go-to-guy for all Parker Boiler parts. He negotiated deals with vendors we could not duplicate today, sav-ing the company money every year.

His step sons Mike Leeming (Na-tional Sales Manager, Parker Boiler), Steve Leeming (who also worked at Parker Boiler) and Bob’s son Bobbie still wonder why he retired.

His nickname was the “professor” as he knew more about the products we make today and ancient Parker Boilers than anyone on planet earth. It’s hard to find a person today willing to mop-up after someone forgot to put the pot under the automatic coffee maker, fix a chair, change a light bulb, or stock our vending machines with soda and water.

Thank you Bob for your 48 years of dedicated service and outstanding stellar performance. He will be missed greatly by co-workers and customers. He is not 100% done, as nobody has finished our physical inventory as fast as he has in previous years and we hope he gives us a hand in years to come.

They needed steam for the CBW, ironers, steam tunnel, and they wanted redundancy in case one went down. Curtis Bash operates the laundry which does thousands of pounds per day for all the hospitals and other healthcare facilities in the region.

9PPM WITH PARKER G2304RLIn 2016 Parker Boiler started nine (9) G2304RL Hot Water Boilers for a large South-ern California defense firm. The three (3) sets of boilers were all provided with Parkerview Lead Lag Panels for boiler control, isolation valve control and interface with the building management system on the job. The large firm wanted Ultra Low NOx Boilers to meet site emission reduction targets.

To meet this stringent 9 ppm NOx requirement Parker Boiler utilized a Siemens LMV parallel positioning system controlling air via fan VFD and gas via a butterfly valve servo motor.

Source testing verified the 9ppm performance and the site was able to bank all emission credits.

In 2012 Parker Boiler provided and started up three (3) TC600L High Efficiency Condensing Boilers for this 150 million-dollar facility dedicated to film preservation.

These Boilers, with inputs of 2,000 MBTU each, are precertified for compliance with the South Coast Air Quality Management Dis-trict’s Rule 1146.2 and Parker Boiler guarantees compliance with the required 20 ppm NOx and 400 ppm CO (corrected to 3% O₂) emission levels.

No SCAQMD permits, source testing, or monitoring were required. The owner’s only involvement with the SCAQMD is a minimal fee for their Rule 222 filing.

The ultra-high efficiency condensing type Parker Boilers provide heat for the very temperature sensitive environment needed to house these cinematic treasures. The boilers are provided with state of the art Honeywell SOLA type combustion controls, lead lag, BAS/EMCS interface with Modbus connectivity and featuring touch screen displays.

Parker Boiler is providing the Annual Tune Ups on the job and 4 years in, the boilers are running great.

Pictured on the right is the Laundry Facility oper-ated by the Kalispel Indian Tribe, sold by Rick Hall at Western State Design.

It is the largest healthcare laundry in Eastern Wash-ington, using a pair of Parker Boiler 90HP 150 PSI Steam Boilers. They built a new healthcare laundry from the ground up. A new Milnor plus flow 150 lb. 8 pocket tunnel as well as several smaller pocket washers were installed at the facility, which use tempered water, hot water and direct steam injection. The Pulse Tunnel saves on water and utilites by using less than .6 gallons of wa-ter per lb of laundry, while the old system demanded 2.5 gallons. They needed steam for the CBW, ironers, steam tunnel, and they wanted redundancy in case one went down. Curtis Bash operates the laundry which does thousands of pounds per day for all the hospitals and other healthcare facilities in the region.
