The Hauck RKG radiant cone burner is designed for applications requiring even heat distribution with a short flame length. The short flame allows the burner to be placed close to the load. The RKG burner is available in six sizes, with a capacity range of 177,000 to 2.3 million Btu/hr (47 to 611 kW). RKG hot air versions are available for preheated air up to 800°F (425°C).
Features
• Compact ball-shaped flame
• Direct spark or gas pilot ignition
• Stable operation at ratio in cold furnace
• Roof or sidewall mounting
• UV or flame rod flame supervision
• Preheated air up to 800°F (425°C)
Benefits
• Compact flame produces even heating.
• Immediate ramping to high fire reduces
furnace heat-up time.
• Minimum distance requirement from
burner to load.
Advantages
The RKG compact flame pattern promotes even heating by radiation from the furnace walls and roof. The short flame allows the burner to be placed close to the load without flame impingement.
The RKG incorporates a port for monitoring the pilot and main flames with either a UV scanner or optional flame rod. An optional spark igniter kit is available. The burner, mounting plate, and refractory tile are shipped as an assembled unit ready for mounting on the furnace. The RKG can be installed to fire in any position.
The RKG can be ignited and brought to high fire immediately, even in a cold, tight furnace. This reduces furnace heat-up.
The RKG performs equally well when firing on-ratio, with excess fuel up to 20%, or with excess air limits ranging from 280 to 400% at 16 osig (6900 Pa) inlet air pressure.
The RKG may be operated in furnaces with chamber temperatures up to 2500°F (1370°C).
