Maturity:
An unit, Burner with Regenerator, ensures highly efficient, selectable thermal storage:
- The burner body is compact and of mono-block construction incorporating a valve to select air or exhaust gas.
- The whole system can be downsized with a reduction in cost.
- This product is applicable to compact high-temperature furnaces where the introduction of conventional regenerative systems is difficult.
- The regenerative media uses an alumina ball that is economical and excellent in heat resistance and corrosion resistance.
- The product is ideal for forge furnaces, open flame heat treatment furnaces, nonferrous metal melting furnaces, and other high-temperature furnaces that are comparatively compact in capacity.
