R.F. MacDonald Co. provides large California winery with Camus Hydronics boiler skid package for CIP cleaning, bottle warming and hose wash station applications
In this application, a close-coupled Clean-In-Place (CIP) skid, bottle warming and hose wash stations have ready-to-use 180F or 90F hot water on demand. The boiler package was designed to accommodate the various loads, maintaining the closed loop at about 200F degrees. All components, including controls and skid fabrication, were provided by RFMCO as part of a single source solution.

Controls
Standard controls include a SOLA electronic proportional integrated combination ignition limit/operator control accurate to 1° F (0.5° C), having a 4-20 mA output signal suitable for control of a variable frequency motor drive or a pulse width modulation signal output for modulating fan speeds. Controls are lead lag “Cascade” ready for control of up to eight boilers consistent with indoor/outdoor reset and lead lag control. The control was equipped and ready with 4-20 mA remote set point or modulating control, capable with 0-10 VDC remote set point and modulating control.
Emissions
The boiler skid package includes an emission control package designed to meet the requirements of the San Joaquin Valley Air Pollution Control District with a NOx emission limit of 20 ppm, corrected to 3% 02 when firing natural gas. The boiler has an input rating of 2,000,000 Btu/Hr and an 88% thermal efficiency.
