Variflame Low-NOx Burner

Product catalog summary
Overview: The VARIFLAME™ burner is a low-NOx, high-efficiency burner designed for package boilers, offering significant reductions in NOx, CO, VOC, and particulate emissions. It is known for its predictable combustion performance, high turndown, and stable flame across a wide range of excess air operations. The burner supports simultaneous gas and oil firing and is suitable for boilers with heat inputs from 30 to 400 MMBtu/hr.
Key Features:
  • Advanced air-fuel staging and Flue Gas Recirculation (FGR) for cost-efficient low-NOx performance.
  • Innovative oil tip design minimizes atomizing steam usage.
  • Quick ramp rate for rapid response to load changes.
Design and Performance: The VARIFLAME burner is designed for simplicity and durability, with no moving parts to adjust. Key components include:
  • Venturi Register: Ensures turbulence-free axial airflow, minimizing pressure loss and maximizing velocity.
  • Swirler: Produces stable flames and thorough mixing, creating a controlled primary combustion zone.
  • Throat: Matches with the register and swirler for an aerodynamically stabilized flame.
  • Gas Burner: Unique injector orientation reduces thermal NOx formation.
  • Oil Burner: Advanced sprayer plate designs for controlled flame geometry.
Applications: Suitable for package boiler applications with burner heat inputs up to 150 MMBtu/hr, featuring:
  • Breakthrough NOx-reduction techniques.
  • Low CO, VOC, and particulate emissions.
  • Superior flame stability and shorter flame length compared to FGR designs.
  • Sub-30 ppm NOx on natural gas without FGR or steam injection.
COOLflame™ Technology: The VARIFLAME II burner incorporates COOLflame™ NOx-reduction techniques, enhancing clean and efficient combustion by staging gas injection into the furnace and mixing fuel with high-temperature furnace gases before combustion.
Conclusion: Coen Company offers advanced and dependable burner systems, with the VARIFLAME burner providing significant financial and performance benefits. For more information, contact a Coen Representative to design a system tailored to your specifications.
