Kangrim KRE-500

The Kangrim Kangrim KRE-500 is an exhaust gas economizer. It is normally installed in the uptake or exhaust duct connected to a water, steam or thermal circuit. It is designed for recovery of engine exhaust heat to reduce auxiliary fuel demand. In operation, hot exhaust gas transfers energy through heating surfaces into the connected fluid circuit. The supplied entry states a capacity of 500 kW thermal; this information is retained unchanged. Compared with neighbouring models, the relevant differences are thermal duty, gas flow, heating-surface area, circulation and pressure rating; these must be confirmed from the installed documentation rather than inferred from the model designation alone. Service and survey attention should concentrate on soot/corrosion, circulation, leakage, exhaust back pressure and thermal expansion. For exact ratings, dimensions, tolerances, test limits and model-specific settings, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.

Common failures & inspection points

Heat-source or burner failure caused by fuel, ignition, exhaust-flow or control faults, noticed as failed start, trip or reduced heat production
Low or unstable water/fluid circulation caused by pump, level-control or valve faults, noticed as alarms, local overheating or loss of output
Heating-surface fouling caused by soot, scale or deposits, noticed as reduced efficiency, higher exhaust temperature or increased pressure drop
Tube, coil or pressure-part leakage caused by corrosion, erosion, scale or thermal stress, noticed as water/fluid loss, steam leakage or contamination of the gas side
Safety/control instrumentation failure caused by sensor, valve, actuator or interlock faults, noticed as unstable operation, nuisance trips or failed functional tests

Service & Maintenance

Inspect pressure parts or heater coils, heat-source/burner and refractory where applicable, gas-side cleanliness, circulation/feed systems and water or thermal-fluid condition. Verify level, pressure, temperature, flow, safety valves and shutdown/interlock functions applicable to the design. Review treatment, blowdown, soot-cleaning and operating records and use manufacturer/class procedures for pressure tests.

Replacement Parts

Carry approved gaskets, valve service parts, relevant pump seals/bearings, temperature/pressure/level sensors and heat-source-specific spares such as burner ignition/flame components or soot-cleaning parts. Pressure-part repair materials should only be used under approved manufacturer and class procedures.
