Page 3: Introduction
introduction the techne afterburners aB-100 & aB-500 are designed to reduce smoke emission from the exhaust gas flue of certain sized techne fluidised bath cleaning systems. the afterburner consists of a burner plate mounted within a thermally insulated combustion chamber. the input to the combustion chamber is designed to mate directly to a standard techne extraction fan, while the output is suitable for connection to an insulated exhaust stack. - Page 4 materials being treated and the working environment. a brief description of the components is as follows:- cyclone assemblies to remove the majority of any fluidised medium that may become entrained in the extracted fumes. the cyclone(s) are positioned in the exhaust ductwork directly after the fluidised bath so that the fluidised medium is removed from the fumes before it contaminates other fume treatment equipment.

Page 6: Operator Safety
operAtor sAfety all users of techne equipment must have available the relevant literature needed to ensure their safety. It is important that only suitably trained personnel use this equipment, in accordance with the instructions contained in this operator's manual and with general safety standards and procedures. If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by techne the protection provided by the equipment to the user may be impaired. -
Page 7: Installation
instAllAtion mount the afterburner in a convenient position adjacent to the fluidised bath ensuring that sufficient space is left around the afterburner for access during maintenance. In particular access to the front of the afterburner is required to enable the burner plate to be removed for cleaning if required. connect the lower input spigot to the output of the fume extraction fan. -
Page 8: Commissioning
commissioning With the extraction fan switched on and operating in the correct direction, ensure that the gas supply is turned on at the remote manual shut off valve (if fitted in supply line), and that an input gas pressure of greater than 6 inches is registered on the input gas pressure gauge. -
Page 9: Setting The Extraction System
the dilution tee may be used to ensure that the oxygen content of the exhaust is high enough to maintain the burner flame during the smoke cycle. the dilution tee also enables the velocity in the cyclone to be maintained at a suitable value to ensure efficient separation of any fluidising medium, while the velocity in the fluidised bath exhaust duct may be limited to reduce the amount of fluidising medium entrained. -
Page 10: Operation
operAtion the afterburner may be used either continuously during cleaning operations in the fluidised bath or, to reduce the overall gas consumption, during the initial part of the cleaning cycle when visible fumes are provided. With the electrical and gas supplies to the afterburner switched on, the burner may be initiated by switching the power switch to the on position. - Page 11 exhaust Ø200 Insulation pilot solenoid valve Burner inspection panel additional gas pressure regulator required for propane Burner manual gas shut-off valve may be mounted separately (supplied by customer) on wall flame safety control box Gas supply Ignition transformer " gas fitting) uV flame detector pilot gas pressure regulator Ballofix control valve...
