We most commonly install Eclipse Thermjet burners on furnaces. The Thermjet is an industrial burner ideally suited for glass melting furnaces for a number of reasons. Most importantly Thermjets provide a wide turndown ratio of 50/1. This means the gas/air ratio can be adjusted to stay in proper proportion from minimum to maximum output over a broad range. Proper air/gas mixture ratios are important to fuel efficiency. |
These burners are also designed to promote good circulation inside the furnace. They are designed to accommodate National Fire Protection Agency approved flame safety systems and are delivered with a spark plug and port for a U.V. sensor. The burner we recommend also has stainless steel internals and can be operated with preheated air. |
These burners require forced air provided by a combustion air blower. The industry standard for many years has been to use a fixed speed blower and control the air volume with a mechanical butterfly valve via the temperature control. In many cases this is the best option; however, for the past eight years we have been using variable speed blowers. With a variable speed blower, the speed of the blower is controlled by the temperature control. This results in a considerable savings in electric consumption. |
We also recommend utilizing one blower for furnaces and a separate blower for glory holes and other gas/air fired equipment. This results in further cost savings as the blower for the glory holes can be shut down during times the glory holes are not in operation. |
There are usually two systems that support a burner. The first is the control system. The control system can be manual but most commonly utilizes a programmable temperature control. The second system is the flame safety system that monitors the burner flame. |
Our most common systems are listed below with average pricing. Please call for specific applications. We will be happy to work with you and design a system to meet your needs. |
All systems provided by HUB are delivered with installation and operation instructions. We also provide training in the operation of new equipment, ongoing assistance and technical support. |
