Longevity Secrets for Your Electroplating Burner: 3 High-Risk Component Inspection Methods:

一、External Inspection (Completed in 3 Minutes)

1️⃣ Burner Housing Surface  
✔️ Check: Peeling coating/rust/discoloration  
⚠️ Standard: No rust, intact coating  
🔧 Tools: Visual inspection + flashlight  

2️⃣ Pipe Connections
✔️ Check: Leaks/rust at flanges/threads  
⚠️ Standard: Tight seals, no corrosion  
🔧 Tools: Wipe with tissue paper  

3️⃣ Exhaust Outlet
✔️ Check: Carbon buildup/acidic condensate on inner walls  
⚠️ Standard: No sticky corrosive residue  
🔧 Tools: Endoscope (optional)




二、Core Internal Inspection (Requires Shutdown)

🔥 Combustion Chamber Refractory Layer
✔️ Check: Cracks/spalling in refractory material 
❗ Risk:Acidic gases accelerate erosion!
 🔧 Method: Tap to listen for hollow sounds (indicates damage) 

🌀 Heat Exchanger Fins
✔️ Check: Acid mist condensate/corrosion holes  
🔧 Method: Clean with soft brush + compressed air

⚡ Electrodes & Igniter Plates
✔️ Check: Ceramic insulator cracks/metal oxidation  
🔧 Tools: Multimeter to test insulation resistance 




三、Electroplating Workshop-Specific Checks  

⚠️ Acid/Alkali Gas Protection 
✔️ Action: Test ambient air around equipment with pH test paper  
🔌 Grounding Resistance Test 
✔️ Standard: Grounding resistance ≤4Ω  




四、Emergency Response

⛔Immediately Shut Down the Machine if the Following Issues are Detected: 
→ Perforated heat exchanger fins  
→ Large-area spalling in combustion chamber refractory layer  
→ Electrode/ion rod insulation resistance <10MΩ  


⏰ Pro Tip:Perform these checks monthly to extend burner lifespan by 2-3 years and slash maintenance costs!
