A guide for owners, managers, supervisors, and repairers of boilers, boiler houses, and boiler plant

Exploding boiler accidents have killed individuals, destroyed machinery, and disrupted output. These catastrophes occurred as a consequence of issues such as insufficiently built boilers, boilers that were improperly sited or placed, and boilers that were not properly handled or maintained. Many organizations require an efficient, dependable boiler, and downtime caused by a failing boiler may have a significant impact on production, plant, and employees.

Here at TS Multitech, as an acknowledged leader in providing professional consulting services related to planning, design, and supervision for all types of engineering projects in Malaysia. Our experience, quality standards, and prompt response have earned us wide local and international acclaim including our proven ability to deliver outstanding work for client projects. Clients have placed their whole faith in TS Multitech to achieve timelines, requirements, and quality standards. Besides consulting services, our company is also qualified and licensed by DOSH to repair boilers and UPVs.

Moreover, many of our competent boiler repairers have many years of experience in this field, handling boilers from 5tph to 2000tph steam capacity with pressure rating 20 barg up to 200 barg. Our knowledgeable and competent boiler repairers also apply proper Work Procedure Specification (WPS) of Malaysia during the repairing process to ensure that the restoration of your boilers and UPV goes as smoothly as possible. On the other hand, Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment & Risk Control (HIRARC), and Job Safety Analysis (JSA) are also strictly carried out before any projects to minimize accidents.

Therefore, every organization must have competent boiler repairers who have sufficient practical and theoretical understanding as well as familiarity with the actual systems involved. They should also be able to get any necessary specialized services, knowledge, and effective assistance, either from inside their own organization or through agreements with external bodies.

The role of a competent boiler repairer includes:

  • Modifying the scheme where necessary
  • Helping the owner or user to establish the safe operating limit of a pressure system
  • Determining the frequency of examination and stating the examination requirements
  • Undertaking the periodic examinations as identified by the written scheme of examination. For a steam boiler this should include an out-of-service examination (cold, off-line, open for inspection) followed by an in-service examination at normal operating pressure to check that all protective and control devices are working properly;
  • Issuing notifications of imminent danger; and
  • Issuing a report of examination and notifications of dangerous defects.

The competent boiler repairer doing the periodic exams must have adequate knowledge and expertise with the kind of system to be evaluated in order to identify any errors or weaknesses that may jeopardize the equipment’s safety. With our commitment and integrated engineering management approach helps achieve a high level of safety, cost-savings, quality, and professionalism for each client.
