Water cooled throughport burners for regenerative glass furnaces.
Eclipse WGD burners are compact water cooled burners designed to be inserted into the port neck of a regenerative glass furnace. The burner is fitted to the Eclipse retraction mechanism to withdraw the burner from the furnace when not firing. Using throughport burners with the retraction mechanism ensures the lowest possible maintenance and therefore consistent combustion essential for high glass quality.
The burner produces a flat, fan shaped luminous flame using a unique arrangement of converging flat jet nozzles. Only one burner is to be used in each port. Excellent flame coverage of the glass is ensured with this type of burner and flames are extremely luminous ensuring high heat transfer and low NOx. The flame location is very easily adjusted within the furnace ensuring that combustion is taking place at the optimum position.
Port Design: The correct port design is essential for this burner. Contact your Eclipse representative to provide the design information for each specific application.
