BRS, through its associate boiler
rental suppliers, will assist in emergency and planned rentals to minimize or
eliminate disruption in operation.
Who supplies the fuel and power for
the boiler?
Who supplies the main gas pressure
regulator?
Who provides the insurance for the
boiler?
Who is paying for the freight?
Who will hook up the boiler and what
needs to be done?
The fuel and power supply for the
boiler are the responsibility of the Lessee. BRS also secures portable
generator sets if you require power for your application. Trailer mounted units
up to 350HP have oil storage tanks on board. Those units require the tank to be
filled after the trailer is blocked and leveled. All oil MUST be removed prior
to return of rental boiler. Units larger than 350HP will require a separate oil
tank to be provided and filled. Many times a local fuel supplier can provide
this tank at little or no charge when purchasing oil. An oil transfer pump may
be required depending on the location of the oil tank. The trailer power
requirements are 240/460 Vac, three phase and 120 Vac, control. Note that some
units have separate control power transformers and do not require 120 VAC
power. If power is not available, portable generator sets can be provided.

Typically the Lessee provides the gas
pressure regulator to supply trailer with proper pressure. If required, BRS
sells gas pressure regulators for your application. Advise the sales department
when you place your order or are inquiring about a price.

It is the responsibility of the
Lessee to provide full protection for the boiler and equipment. Check with your insurance agent, many
policies will cover this with no increased premiums or extra charges involved.
A certificate of insurance will be required prior to start-up.

The Lessee pays the freight to the
site and the return of the unit after the rental period. Trucking arrangements
are made by BRS or Lessor and will be coordinated with the trucking company.

The hook-up of the boiler will be
done by the Lessee, which includes the following tasks before a start-up
technician is called.
Unload and level the boiler unit or
level and block the tires for trailer mounted units.
Connect the 3 phase and 120 Vac
control power as required to the safety disconnects.
Provide make-up water supply to the
feed connection. Minimum of 40 psig.
Provide steam piping from the trailer
to the process connection.
Provide a regulated natural gas
service or PROPERLY REGULATED propane tank for 200,000 BTUs pilot gas.
Supply and fill oil tank when burning
#2 oil. Gas pilot required when firing oil.
Provide condensate return piping.
This is not required, but returning condensate will reduce make-up water usage
and reduce energy cost.
Pipe any drains to safe areas, water
and steam is a hazard to personnel or property. Local code MUST be consulted.

Chemical treatment for the boiler
must be provided for any length of rental. The Lessee must provide the proper
chemical treatment program. Proper blow down of the equipment and treatment will
prevent damage to the boiler. BRS can provide the proper boiler chemicals and
chemical treatment services at start-up and during the rental period. Please advise
when the lessee does not want the responsibility of chemical treatment. BRS
also has a third party chemical treatment company that can also provide
chemicals and services when needed.
