  • Theoretical Efficiency Is Not the Proper Gauge of Actual Efficiency

    May 22, 2013

    Theoretical Efficiency Is Not the Proper Gauge of Actual Efficiency 2013-05-22 Today’s published boiler efficiency ratings are calculated by manufacturers using a 15% excess air level, regardless of a burner’s actual ability to operate at that condition throughout the firing range

  • Burners Meet High Efficiency, Low Emissions Demands

    May 13, 2013

    In recent years,  burner technology advancements have led to the development of higher efficiency, lower emissions products. Burner engineers have made great strides in increasing burner turndown and lowering excess air levels even at the lower firing rates. At the same time, they have engineered ways to reduce NOX to single-digit levels.Burner Turndown.

  • Burner Retrofits Increase Efficiency and Reduce Emissions for Owners - High turndown and parallel positioning are key

    January 9, 2013

    The burner is the true driver of fuel use and costs in a boiler. Over time, linkage joints, cams, and other moving parts wear out, and a burner loses its ability to keep tight control of fuel-air ratio.

  • Run Your Boiler at Its Best -- Maintaining Efficiency Is a Continuing Goal

    December 19, 2012

    Too often a high-efficiency package boiler is purchased at a premium price and then allowed to decline in performance from lack of proper maintenance or from incorrect operation. Today’s boilers are rugged and finely-tuned machines. Digital burner controls and on-board flue gas analysis make the job easier, but it’s as important as ever to keep an eye on the goal of optimum efficiency.
