FEATURES AND BENEFITS
The Benchmark 6000 (BMK6000) that features 15:1 turndown for energy efficiency, Low NOx emissions, and high reliability in an unmatched compact footprint that is half the size of any other 6 million BTU/hr boiler on the market. Incorporating AERCO’s field-proven stainless steel, fire-tube design, the Benchmark 6000 provides consulting-specifying engineers, facilities management, and building owners with a boiler that provides flexibility to fit in both retrofit and new construction that require one or multiple six million BTU/hr boilers.
The Benchmark 6000has an operating efficiency of 94.5% to reduce operating expenses and yield the highest possible seasonal fuel savings. Measuring only 79 H x 34 W x 109 D (inches), the redesigned Benchmark 6000 is the most compactly designed six million BTU/hr boiler in the market, and approximately the same size of other three million BTU/hr boilers. Another design advantage of the Benchmark 6000 is the 439 stainless steel construction that helps the boiler achieve high efficiency. It also improves longevity and creates greater heat exchanger cycling resistance.
The Benchmark 6000 comes standard with AERCO’s patented Oxygen Level (O2) monitoring system that can display the O2 level directly on the boiler’s C-More™ Touch Screen Control Package in real time.
For added convenience, AERCO’s remote data collection option continually monitors the internal operations, scanning performance parameters and potential fault risks. This information is collected and evaluated at our data center which has the capability to monitor performance trends and fault occurrences. The Benchmark 6000 can also be remotely accessed via Modbus or Intranet, enabling the boiler’s emissions level and fuel economy to be measured without traditional calibration devices, helping to maximize fuel economy.
Employing a proven Low NOx burner design and proprietary fuel system, the new Benchmark 6000 supports strict emissions control. The boiler delivers <20ppm NOx at all firing levels, making it an ideal choice for environmentally-friendly projects. (9 ppm NOx is available as an option.) Its small footprint, high efficiency and lower operating costs can help facilities earn LEED points.
The Benchmark 6000 can be serviced via the front or top of the boiler, as well as the side, allowing for true side-by-side installation, further reducing footprint requirements. The boiler offers a number of venting capabilities including sidewall, through-the-roof, and sealed combustion for broad installation flexibility. BMK6000 boilers come with a life warranty against Thermal Shock and 10-year pro-rated against condensate corrosion and manufacturing defects heat exchanger warranty.
