Calibrate & Tune Boilers, Walter Reed Navy Medical Center

Calibrate and Tune Boilers & install stack Dampers at Bldg 16, Walter Reed Navy Medical Center, Bethesda, MD

Due to our extensive knowledge of the central plant at Walter Reed, SDC was awarded this project to calibrate and tune the 5 existing boilers serving multiple installation medical facilities. The intent of this project is to bring the boiler systems into code compliance for the Environmental Protection Agency.

The existing exhaust stack damper actuators do not operate properly to control exhaust emissions. SDC is replacing the actuators to allow proper control. Once the new actuators are in place, each boiler will be run through a series of operational checks to establish a baseline for calibration and tuning. Each boiler is then calibrated and tuned to title standards established in the EPA’s Title V Facility Level Applicable Requirements.
