The article analyzes conditions, causes of breakdown, and the main types of corrosion of elements exposed to the greatest wear, and also the classification of breakdowns using oil with different composition in the boilers of the most common designs. Recommendations are made aimed at improving operational reliability and data are provided optimizing planned and preventive boiler maintenance.
