HUTCHINSON, Kan. (January 10, 2023) –
Superior Boiler has completed its 20,000th registered National Board boiler.

“This is a major milestone in our company’s more than 100-year history,” said Superior’s President & CEO Doug Wright. “It’s a testament to the exceptional team members who have worked at Superior Boiler since the company was founded in 1917. The same principles exist today as then of delivering boilers with the highest-quality craftsmanship and providing exceptional customer service and support.”

The National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors was established in 1919 to “formulate uniform qualification and examination requirements for boiler inspectors to be used by all states.” Its goal was to regulate safety and quality standards used for boilers and pressure vessels and to standardize them across state lines.

The first National Board law passed in Kansas in 1953. In May 1954, Superior Boiler, then known as Superior Boiler & Supply Co., began manufacturing a C-1 model boiler for Tomlinson Cleaners in Stafford, Kansas. On October 7, 1954, the 2-pass steam boiler was issued a National Board #1 registration number. Though it wasn’t the first boiler Superior had built, it was the first required to be registered to the National Board following the passage of the law in Kansas.

The 10-horsepower boiler had a small capacity compared to many boilers now but was an average-sized unit at the time. The boiler was welded, painted and tested, then shipped in November 1954, six months from the receipt of the order. Lead times have drastically improved since then, from six months to 16 to 18 weeks for Superior’s Scotch Marine boilers.

The unit remained in operation for more than 40 years and was still in working order at the time Tomlinson Cleaners closed in the early 2000s. Following the company’s closure, the unit was returned home to Superior Boiler in Hutchinson, where it has remained as a key piece of Superior’s history.

Superior Boiler Issues National Board #20,000
Now, more than 68 years after its first National Board boiler shipped, Superior Boiler operations are still in full swing. The company has seen large growth, improvements and continuous investment in research and development.

On December 6, 2022, Superior Boiler issued National Board #20,000 to a Wichita steam boiler. At more than 13 feet tall, 25 feet long and 8 feet wide, the unit is large enough to fit the National Board #1 boiler inside its furnace.

The 2-pass wetback boiler features a 2,000-horsepower capacity and a design pressure of 200 psi steam. Sold by Mechanical Sales, one of Superior’s representatives, it will be delivered to a Midwest soybean processing facility. The customer will use the equipment to create process steam as it creates domestic, renewable energy for the biodiesel industry. The National Board #20,000 Wichita boiler will be paired with a twin boiler, a 3,300-gallon spray deaerator and a blowdown separator to complete the customer’s boiler room.

Superior Boiler commemorated this milestone event with a company celebration beside the National Board #1 and #20,000 boilers.

HUTCHINSON, Kan. (July 13, 2022) –
Superior Boiler has entered into an exclusive partnership agreement with Nationwide Boiler Inc. (NBI) to jointly market and sell certain watertube boilers using Superior’s recently patented DFW design. Under the agreement, Nationwide Boiler will lead the marketing and sales activity of watertube boilers with the DFW design incorporated in Superior’s O-type boiler and Ds-type boiler for rental boiler applications and other joint special projects worldwide. Superior and Nationwide will jointly promote sales of all watertube boilers utilizing the DFW design within California, Nevada, Oregon, Washington and the Gulf Coast of Texas, where NBI is Superior’s long-standing authorized sales representative.

The agreement will combine Superior’s strong North American presence with NBI’s global reach, leveraging the combined resources and strengths of each company to make DFW technology available to customers worldwide.

“Superior and Nationwide share a long and successful history that is only getting better with time,” said Doug Wright, Superior’s president and CEO. “NBI aligns closely with the company characteristics Superior strives for, including quality first, integrity and customer support. We believe our partnership agreement to promote and sell the advanced DFW design will provide end customers with an exceptional product and a support team they can rely on for outstanding responsiveness and expertise.”

Superior’s patented DFW technology represents engineering advancements that significantly improve the company’s watertube boiler designs. NBI already has purchased and put into service several of these types of boilers and has clearly demonstrated the advantages of the enhanced boiler design.

“Nationwide Boiler has long been a pioneer in the rental boiler industry, being first to market with new products and improved designs,” said Nationwide Boiler President and CEO Larry Day. “The DFW concept goes back to 2018,
working closely with Sundeep Bodapati at Superior, to think innovatively and design a higher-capacity boiler with a small footprint. Bodapati’s revolutionary concept not only accomplishes high capacity in a small footprint, but also has the advantages of faster load response, lower thermal NOx and lower rear-wall temperature without compromising boiler efficiency or performance. In the rental business, size and weight are major factors for mobility and freight cost. This new design allows us to get 25% more capacity out of the same footprint, which achieves a major savings in customer shipping cost and delivery time.”
