VIP's new Boiler Controller can be quickly and easily mounted onto existing industrial boilers to improve efficiency, ideal for tea estates and other large-scale food production. By improving air intake operation, the VIP Boiler Controller reduces annual fuel consumption by 10 to 20%, and reduces boiler fan electricity consumption by 25 to 50%.
Reduced fuel use means fewer costs, allowing for new investments such as providing on-demand electricity and hot water to workers in remote areas using the VIP 10-40 Combined Heat and Power Plant.
