Advanced Low NOx Technology Since 1930, Clayton has been a leader in the development and manufacture of innovative and highly efficient Steam Generators. Backed by worldwide sales and service, our unique Steam Generators have proven the superiority and ability to provide reliable, cost effective steam production around the world. Working from proven designs and philosophies, our commitment to continuing research and development has made Clayton one of the most respected names in the boiler industry. In keeping with this strong background we are pleased to introduce our latest product line of very Low NOx - Low CO Steam Generators. These unique combustion systems provide extremely low emissions without sacrificing efficiency and reliability. Clayton’s clean emissions technology is “not just a step ahead, but A STEP BEYOND.” Clayton Steam Generators: • SAVE FUEL The unique counter flow design provides higher fuel-to- steam efficiency than traditional boilers. • ARE SAFE FOR PERSONNEL AND EQUIPMENT Inherently safe, the Clayton design eliminates hazardous steam explosions. • PROVIDE RAPID RESPONSE The Clayton design responds rapidly to sudden or fluctuating load demands. • START FAST The Clayton design will provide full output from a cold start within fifteen minutes, without thermal stress. • ARE COMPACT AND LIGHTWEIGHT The Clayton design typically occupies one-third of the floor space and weighs 75% less than a traditional boiler. • ENSURES HIGH QUALITY STEAM Clayton provides a 99.5% quality separator to minimize moisture in the steam. • OFFERS ADVANCED CONTROLS PLC controls, Variable Speed Drives and a linkage- less servo controlled burner management system are standard. • INCLUDES OUTSTANDING SUPPORT Every Steam Generator is backed by Clayton factory direct sales and service plus full service feedwater treatment.

Ultra Low NOx Burner Clayton’s Low NOx - Low CO Fiber Metal Burner (FMB) system achieves low emissions through a combination of technologies including improved fuel and air mixing, ultra lean flame design and a low flame residence time. The fiber metal allows for a very short flame length which results in ultra low NOx emissions. The system consists of a high pressure combustion air blower, fuel/air premixing chamber, modulating air/fuel damper, premix plenum, fiber metal burner manifold and an advanced micro-ratio adjustable fuel flow control system. Air and gas are thoroughly mixed in the...

Flue Gas Recirculation Clayton’s Flue Gas Recirculation (FGR) system is an effective method for reducing the NOx levels in flue gas emissions. Two primary factors contribute to the production of NOx when fuel is burned, combustion temperature and oxygen. By recirculating a portion of the flue gas into the combustion chamber, the combustion temperature and oxygen levels are effectively reduced - by as much as 60%. The flue gas is drawn from the exhaust stack into the forced draft blower through an induction process that uses air velocity to create a vacuum. The vacuum changes in proportion...
