Ashrae Journal - December 2008 - (Page 74) New Product Preview Advertising Section Maximum Performance for Any Large Heating Application with the VANTAGE Hydronic heating is becoming the standard for high efficiency heating systems, and Fulton is prepared to lead the pack, once again. With a history of innovative products that support a wide range of applications, Fulton has been setting the standard in the boiler industry for 60 years. That trend continues with the new Fulton VANTAGE, 4,000,000 Btu/hr. condensing hot water boiler. “ the name Fulton has become synonymous with Solutions.” This latest addition to the Fulton family of products continues the tradition of performance with 99% efficiencies available with modulation (which comes standard with a 5:1 turndown ratio). To reach these efficiencies, the VANTAGE (VTG-4000) utilizes a linkage less modulating control system. This allows for precise control of the combustion process. The linkage less control, working in conjunction with outdoor reset, offers the highest efficiencies possible. Some of the design features of the VANTAGE include: • Dual Fuel capabilities with #2 oil. • High mass design. • Direct vent/sealed combustion. • No primary/secondary loop required. • Optional outdoor reset controller maximizes seasonal efficiencies. • Stainless Steel heat exchanger. Over the years, the name Fulton has become synonymous with Solutions. That line of thinking is the reason the VANTAGE offers operation with no minimum return water temperature requirements and no minimum or maximum flow requirements. With no minimum water temperature or flow rate, a single loop hydronic system can be designed. This greatly reduces cost by not requiring 3-way valves, in-line pumps, extra piping No “re-assembly” is required in the field because the VANTAGE ships as a complete unit. All controls and equipment are front mounted for easy access, and no side access is necessary. This allows for multiple units to be installed within 1 inch of each other. By expanding time-tested ideas and maintaining a focus on customer satisfaction, Fulton has developed the VANTAGE as a solution to your heating application needs. This time-tested technology was used to build one of the largest Commercial Heating skid packages Fulton has ever built for an Indiana automotive components manufacturer. The manufacturing facility will be unique in many ways including the ultra-high efficiency VANTAGE Condensing Boilers and its associated hydronic heating system. The owners and the design engineers selected the VANTAGE system based on the products durable design, the ability of the boilers to be fired with a back-up fuel and the turnkey, skid mounted system provided by Fulton. The system will ultimately have seven skid-mounted dual fuel boilers with all system required accessories as well as the ModSync control with custom programming. A. B. Young Companies personnel worked closely with other Fulton representatives and Fulton factory personnel to deliver a single solution, turnkey package that will save thousands of operation dollars. 74 ASHRAE Journal ashrae.org December 2008 http://www.fulton.com http://www.ashrae.org
