My hydrocracking reactor heating furnace has a capacity of 1.2 MW; it is equipped with a blower, but no quick-opening air valves. Let’s discuss: what is the purpose of quick-opening air valves, and does my heating furnace need them? The quick-opening damper is a type of interlock with the blower ； With the blower stopped, the quick-opening damper can be opened to continue production. Generally, hydrogen blowers are equipped with backup fans; since the two fans can be switched between each other, there is no need to install a quick-opening damper interlock.
A 1.2MW furnace does not require a blower; natural ventilation is sufficient.
