An ignition transformer is a device used for direct spark ignition in combustion systems. Reliable, repeatable direct-spark ignition requires a high-energy spark — and the ignition transformer is what we use to generate the high voltage we need to create that spark. A typical supply in the USA is 120 volts, but we need to send Read More

FAQ: What is a Package Burner?
A package burner is an industrial burner with its own dedicated blower. The standard scope of supply includes everything you need to safely run the burner: blower, air valve, air pressure switches, gas manifold (with filter, pressure reducing regulator, safety shut-off valves, gas pressure switches, etc.), ignition transformer, and flame safety. You are responsible for Read More
ESA REKO-SIK-NxT-SW
The REKO-SIK-NxT-SW by ESA is a sidewall burner in a self-recuperative body utilizing ESA’s NxT technology. A “sidewall” (or “flat flame” or “wall hugging”) burner traditionally uses centrifugal force to achieve a flame that stays close to the refractory wall, avoiding impingement on the work product. The REKO-SIK-NxT-SW works a bit differently, instead dividing the Read More
FAQ: What is an Industrial Burner?
Q: What is an industrial burner? A: We like to say an industrial burner is just a fancy way of mixing gas and air. This is the primary task of a nozzle-mix burner, because the fuel and air are kept separate right up until the point of combustion. Every manufacturer has a different design for Read More
EMB-SIK-DA Industrial High-Velocity Burner for Gas
ESA’s EMB-SIK-DA are gas burners for direct heating. The shape of the silicon carbide flame tube produces a tightflame. This allows high heat penetration and better temperature uniformity inside the combustion chamber dueto the high speed of the products of combustion. The DA burner has a secondary air inlet and the excess air capacity of Read More
FAQ: Ignition Electrodes for Pilot and Industrial Burners
Q: I need some new spark ignitors for my burners. Is that something that I can buy from Combustion 911? A: Combustion 911 carries stock of the components required to create ignition electrodes (also called “spark ignitors”) and ionization electrodes (also called “sense electrodes” or “flame-rods”) for a wide range of Elster Kromschröder pilot and Read More
