Dependable boiler doors are crucial for ensuring both safety and efficiency in industrial operations. Unlike conventional access panels, boiler doors are designed to provide rapid, secure access to boilers, heat recovery steam generators, and other essential equipment.
Lathrop Trotter is proud to partner with Babcock Power’s Boiler Tube Company of America to offer IMTEC Flexiseal Access Doors. These boiler doors are fully engineered solutions that deliver entirely new levels of safety, speed, and cost savings when it comes to gaining access to critical power and environmental equipment such as:
- Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSGs)
- Boilers
- Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) Modules
- Scrubbers,
- Electrostatic Precipitators
- Baghouses
- Economizers
IMTEC doors help reduce labor and downtime by eliminating the need for bolts or tools and incorporating a one-handed release mechanism, allowing technicians to easily and safely get inside the equipment in less than 60 seconds. With added safety features like pressure-test pins and secure locking systems, these doors ensure quick and safe access, improving overall operational efficiency and minimizing maintenance disruptions.

Cost Savings
Significantly increased speed of access can mean serious savings in labor and shutdown costs, depending on the application. Depending on the installation scenario, IMTEC catalyst laydown doors can be raised and installed in about 20 minutes vs. the 192 hours of torch cutting and welding necessary for conventional products. This means IMTEC doors could potentially pay for themselves in just a single outage. See the worksheets below to help give you an idea of potential savings for many applications.
