Gas burner rack Orion H/8Q

The gas burner rack ORION H/8Q has been specifically developed by Alpina Neptune for the market of all the geographc areas whwre the production of bricks is based on the use of Hoffmann type kilns with removeble roof

For this kind of kilns the use of mobile racks is necessary to permit the fast and save moving, positioning and removal of burners. The rack runs on a lateral track placed by the side of the kiln roof; a hooking system allows removing and fastening the burners in raised position during the movement.

ORION H/8Q  feeds 8 high-speed gas burners operating with natural gas and/or GPL. The burners are equipped with self-ignition system with flame control and therefore are able to operate in autonomy and total safety. Each burner pipe is independent from the others, since it is eqiopped with solenoid valve and an electric panel to drive and control the equipment. The presence of the flame control system also guarantees the absence of any unburned gas in the smokes.

Through a time controller of burner operation it is possible to fix the operating time of the gas burner rack in its position and, once expired, the gas feeding is interrupted and the operator will proceed to move the rack in the following position.

Each burner introduces the combustion gas into the kiln at an average speed of 130 m/sec has three main functions:

• Uniform temperature distribution in the kiln sections thanks to turbolence generated by high velocity and by remixing of combustion gases with ambient air.  
• Uniform heating of all material layers
• Faster material warming because of higher thermic exchange coefficient due to friction created by air speed
•  

It is a very efficient application of an automatic system in a background where the intervention of an operator is anyhow reqiored. This system will help the efficiency of the combustion, as well as the improvement of health and safety conditions thanks to the drastic reduction of emission of polluting substances.

ADVANTAGE OF USING ORION H/8Q

• Efficiency and reduction of fuel consumption and maintenance costs
• Cleaner technology respect to mazout fuel: reduction in particulate, hydrocarbon, sulphur dioxide SO2, carbon monoxide CO
• Improvement of health and safety conditions of operators
• Flame control system: interruption of gas supply under fault conditions
• High flame speed and diffusion capability
• Fast and easy positioning of burner units thanks to the compact, light and resistent structure of the burners ( only 11 Kg per burner )
• Long durability of machines due to the high quality of components
•
