Following BOILER 2022, I was in awe of what we accomplished with planning and executing a new conference and trade show coming out of a global pandemic but realized we needed to quickly transition to how we were going to top the inaugural event.

Boiler technology has come a long way in the past 70 years, and a lot of its major advancements have been in the area of efficiency. 

The Comet Burner can be supplied as part of a complete combustion system that can include draft control, feedwater control, multiple boiler lead/lag control, or plant master control. 

While most data centers use air-cooled chillers that have free cooling coils to benefit from lower ambient conditions, air-cooled, magnetic bearing centrifugal chillers can operate at inverted conditions and provide free cooling without the need for additional coils.

Whether it’s engineering a new campus distribution system, reengineering one, or adding an extension to one for a new building on the campus, hydraulic modeling is an essential design tool.

The inputs and outputs (I/O) of VFDs are seemingly modest terminals and may initially appear intimidating. However, mastering their application unlocks a whole new world of possibilities for your pumping system.

By focusing on water quality, you can ensure the safety of water system users, increased life span of the equipment, and compliance.

Founded in 1821 with a focus on liberal arts, Amherst College has seen an 85% increase in enrolments in STEM classes during the past 15 years. Consequently, a new Science Center opened in the fall of 2018 that embraces sustainability. 
 

Today’s heat pump technologies provide a variety of ways to help building owners comply with regulations around decarbonization and meet their ESG goals. 

To enhance installation flexibility, the XCalibur line offers two- and three-inch dual pipe direct venting, ½- and ¾-inch gas line options and universal indoor/outdoor installation.
