Fulton's all-new VSRT vertical steam boiler has scooped its second award in just two weeks, having won Best New Product at the Laundry & Dry Cleaning Awards (LADAs2018), which were held at Mercedes-Benz World in Surrey on Thursday 1st November.
The LADAs recognise exceptional individuals, companies and products/services in the laundry and drycleaning industry and aim to celebrate skills and innovations.
The judges had some tough decisions to make, with this year's awards attracting a record number of entries, up more than 100% on last year.
Commenting on the awards, Fulton's Carl Knight says: "To have an award-winning steam boiler in our portfolio is really something, but it's now double-award-winning and we couldn't be happier and are loking forward to taking this news and the award back to our Bristol facility and share it with a very deserving team."
He goes on to say that before committing to a tubeless vertical steam boiler for your next heat transfer project, consider the “class-leading” claims about energy efficiency, performance, reliability and maintenance from other manufacturers and instead look at the figures and awards that speak for themselves!
The VSRT boasts ultra-low NOx emissions of less than 20ppm that are achieved thanks to its combustion technology, which features a modulating burner and furnace that have been purposely-designed as a single component and fully-matched with the VSRT in mind.
This has helped Fulton to achieve up to 10:1 turndown capabilities and industry-leading performance of >82.5% gross thermal efficiency and 99.75% steam quality at 8 bar. When correctly sized for applications, the exceptionally high turndown will result in savings above and beyond those gained from the stated efficiencies.
For applications where contaminated air can reduce boiler uptime – such as those of the laundry and dry cleaning sector – the VSRT’s cyclonic air filter effectively separates debris and damaging particles from the combustion air and, because it won’t clog over time, eliminates the need for replacement filters.
