Many older furnaces and combustion systems remain in operation even though their components, control systems and documentation may no longer comply with current requirements and standards.
UTAB helps customers modernize and upgrade their installations to achieve safe, reliable and future-proof production.
Our services include upgrades of control and safety systems, replacement of safety-related components, risk assessments and safety reviews, as well as inspection of piping and pressurized systems. Many existing installations contain components that have exceeded their intended service life or systems for which documentation and statutory periodic inspections are incomplete or unavailable.
We help our customers comply with applicable directives, regulations, standards and industry requirements, including the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, AFS, PED, EGN and SS-EN ISO 13577, covering safety requirements for industrial furnaces and associated combustion and fuel systems.
The objective is to provide a safe working environment, high operational reliability and a reduced risk of unplanned downtime and accidents.
Electrifying a furnace is not just a technological shift – it is a step towards more competitive and future-proof production.
With electric heating, direct emissions from combustion are eliminated. When using renewable electricity, the process can be practically fossil-free.
Electric heating elements convert energy directly into heat with very little loss, providing efficient and stable operation.
Electric heating provides a cleaner and quieter working environment without exhaust fumes, open flames or combustion-related noise. It also reduces the need for fuel handling and contributes to a safer, more pleasant and easy-to-maintain production environment.
With our combined expertise in furnace technology and heat treatment, we provide customized solutions optimized from both a technical and economic perspective.
We work closely with our customers to ensure a smooth transition and a solution that performs reliably in actual operation – not merely on paper.
Electrifying your furnace is more than a change in heating technology – it is an investment in more competitive and future-proof production.
