Burner control

overview

Multiple burner system, ON/OFF rotary impulse control

Multiple burner system, Rotary impulse control (open heating, common combustion chamber), no air preheating, direct ignition, pneumatic ratio control system, Ionization control
Flowchart No.: 2.5.1.1.1.1b
Standard: EN 746-2

Process control systems

No. Component description Standards and Docuthek
010 Manual shut-off valve for burners, e.g. manual valve AKT
020 Manual shut-off valve for burners, e.g. manual valve AKT

 

030 Manual shut-off valve for burners, e.g. manual valve AKT
040 Air/gas ratio control, e.g. air/gas ratio control GIK

Pressure regulators should be designed to be as small as possible.
Our tip: to achieve good control characteristics, the maximum pressure gradient (difference between the inlet pressure and the required outlet pressure of the regulator) should be fully utilized.

050 Valve combination VCG, as an alternative to the individual devices automatic shut-off valve (VAS) and air/gas ratio control (VAG)
060 Manual adjusting element for gas, e.g. flow adjusting cocks GEHV and GEH
070 Stainless steel bellows unit, e.g. Type EKO

 

080 Industrial burner for gas, e.g. BIO, ZIO, BIC, ZIC

Burners can be combined with a burner quarl or ceramic tube. Selection is dependent on the process and system requirements such as capacity, temperature, flame shape and outlet velocity as well as furnace wall thickness and gas type.

090 Air control valve, e.g. solenoid valve for air VR

For low-fire rate supply, the valve VR.. can be supplied with a bypass orifice in the valve housing on request. The diameter of the bypass orifice depends on the supply pressure and air requirement.

100 Manual adjusting element for air, e.g. flow adjusting cocks LEH
110 Automatic burner control unit with air valve control, e.g. PFU 760

The burner control units PFU control, ignite and monitor gas burners for intermittent or continuous operation. As a result of their fully electronic design they react quickly to various process requirements and are therefore also suitable for frequent cycling operation.

120 Ignition transformer, e.g. TZI or TGI

Ignition transformers should be installed as close to the burner as possible.

130 Burner control unit BCU 460, as an alternative to the individual devices automatic burner control unit and ignition transformer

The burner control unit is mounted to the burner on site and ensures simple commissioning of the burner system.

Application

Optimum solution for processes which require a control range of more than 1:10 and/or those which require heavy circulation of the furnace atmosphere to ensure a uniform temperature, e.g. heat treatment furnaces operating at low and medium temperatures in the metallurgical industry…

PILOT GAS RATE/HIGH/OFF burner control is possible without capacity restrictions in accordance with EN 746-2.
This system is suitable for processes in which infiltrated air from the switched off burners does not cause any problems.

Function

With ON/OFF cyclical control, the capacity supplied to the process is controlled by means of a variable ratio of the operating time to the pause time. In this type of control, the burner output pulse frequency always maintains full momentum and maximum convection is obtained in the furnace chamber, even with regulated heating.

The pneumatic ratio control system (040/050) controls the gas pressure on the burner proportionally to the air pressure and thus maintains a constant air/gas ratio. At the same time, it acts as an air deficiency cut-out. Adjusting valves (060) and/or butterfly valves (070) are used for limiting the air and gas flow rates and for adjusting the air/gas ratio.

Furnace pressure fluctuations have the same effect on the gas and air flow so that the air/gas ratio will remain unchanged.

Ignition and monitoring are ensured by an automatic burner control unit (110/130), which must be approved for continuous operation if the burner is to operate for more than 24 hours, in accordance with EN 746-2. Two valve outputs on the automatic burner control unit for separate activation of the bypass valve and main valve ensure the fail-safe limitation of the start fuel flow rate (pilot gas rate) in accordance with EN 746-2.

Note

The burners are operated in PILOT GAS RATE/HIGH/OFF mode so that this burner system can be used regardless of the burner capacity.

Ignition with up to 33% of the burner rating with a safety time of 3 seconds complies with the requirements of EN 746-2:2010.

Automatic burner control units with air valve control allow pre-purge without additional air valve control system as well as cooling via the burners which is controlled by the impulse system.

Alternatively, a solenoid valve VR..L or solenoid-operated butterfly valve BVHM with MB..L can be used as the air control valve. The air solenoid valve must be equipped with a bypass orifice which is designed for the pilot air flow rate. This air volume also flows into the furnace chamber as infiltrated air when the burner is switched off. For a solenoid-operated butterfly valve, the pilot air volume is adjusted on the actuator.

The air control valve (090) should open slowly (damped opening).

To switch off the heating, a central automatic shut-off valve should be provided in the gas inlet section.
