Eclipse Vortometric Burner, V3, Design Guide 248, 6/10/2010
Introduction
Product Description
The ExtensoHeat is a nozzle-mixing type burner intended
to operate in high-temperature firing kilns with very thick
walls and roof. It is also suitable for special applications in
which the flame must be developed away from the burner.
The ExtensoHeat is designed to inject the flame through
the thick wall in the combustion chamber, discharging a
strong jet of hot gases inside it.
The high speed of the combustion gases ensures
excellent temperature uniformity and high efficiency of the
system, which improves the product quality. The gas
velocity can reach 328 ft/sec (100 m/s). There are different
nozzle lengths ranging from 31 inches (800mm) to 55
inches (1,400mm).
Burner Specifications:
• Control options include on/off or group modulation
and pulse firing. Constant air flow.
• Self ignition by process temperature.
• Flame detection is not necessary (Temperature
above 1382ºF or 750ºC).
• Operability with other fuels.
• Designed to operate with excess gas in chambers
with an oxidizing atmosphere (O
