Firing rate

During operation, burner output varies between:
 a MINIMUM OUTPUT: area A
 a MAXIMUM OUTPUT: area B
Diagrams:
Horizontal axis:burner output
Vertical axis:pressure in combustion chamber
The work point is found by drawing a vertical line from the
required output and an horizontal line from the corresponding
pressure in the combustion chamber.
The intersection of these two lines is the work point which must
lie within area A for the MINIMUM output and area B for the
MAXIMUM output.
The firing rate value (Fig. 3) has been obtained
considering an ambient temperature of 20 °C, an
atmospheric pressure of 1013 mbar (approx. 0 m
ATTENTION a.s.l.), and with the combustion head adjusted as
shown on page 18.

Test boiler

The firing rate was measured in special test boilers, according to
the procedures prescribed in EN 267 regulations.
In (Fig. 4) you can see the diameter and length of the test
combustion chamber.

Technical description of the burner
10 GB
Example
output 35 kg/hour: diameter 50 cm - length 1.5 m.
If the burner were to burn in a much smaller commercial
combustion chamber, preliminary testing should be carried out.
