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 the gas and electric drops, but the idea is a package burner should be plug-and-play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That doesn’t mean you’re without options. Customers often ask for some variation of the standard scope. You might want to provide the gas manifold and components yourself, or use a different flame safety, or change how the air is controlled. Maybe you need a special blower motor for your electric supply. Combustion is a high mix, low volume business, and many manufacturers recognize this and are prepared to work with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Package Burner Control Methods<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It’s common to see either fixed air\/modulating gas or fixed gas\/modulating air control on a package burner. Of the two, we see fixed gas\/modulating air most often. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a fixed gas\/modulating air scheme, the air flow is managed using a butterfly valve installed between the blower and the burner. An actuator drives the butterfly valve (there are options here, selected according to your application and need), and a cross-connected regulator maintains a constant gas-to-air ratio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a fixed air\/modulating gas scheme, there is no valve between the blower and the burner, and the air flow is always the same. In a dual stage or modulating system, gas flow is modulated using a butterfly valve (or similar) with an actuator. In an on\/off system, the modulating valve is omitted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are certainly other ways to manage package burners! This isn’t an exhaustive list. Please contact us if you’re curious about whether a package burner is right for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Applications<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Package burners are popular for use in dryers, convection ovens for industrial food processing, and direct- or indirect-fired air heating applications. They’re also widely used in the textile industry, and in paint booths, ceramic kilns, and many others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Benefits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Package burners are popular in situations where only one burner is needed, for obvious reasons, but they are also handy for applications where the equipment changes location. Without a central blower and air manifold to worry about, you’re limited only by where you can drop gas and electric. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You’ll find package burners in groups on large ovens, too. Imagine a convection oven running low temps with a lot of air movement. With a blower at each burner, you have options to create the ideal environment for an even bake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A package burner’s pre-piped manifold will act as both a main gas train and burner train. This virtually ensures the oven won’t be forced down due to a failed regulator, pressure switch, or gas valve. You might lose an individual burner, but not the whole system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If a package burner needs to be replaced, this can often be done with a quick operation, unmounting the old burner and mounting the new one. Of course, this is an extreme case. Most issues can usually be handled with spare parts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can you recommend a package burner?<\/h2>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Of course! ESA’s FC package burner<\/a> are fixed air package burners. Use this model for on\/off control, dual stage control, or modulating gas control.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The ESA EPB series<\/a> utilize a butterfly valve for air control, and a cross-connected regulator to maintain a constant gas-to-air ratio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
