Brochure Ceramic burner

Product catalog summary

Introduction
The document discusses the Ceramic Tile Burner, type AK 4, developed by Goch GmbH & Co. KG for industrial drying applications. It addresses the challenge of achieving high-quality drying with energy efficiency.

Problem
Various materials such as textiles, technical fabrics, and coatings require specific drying characteristics. The challenge is to maintain high product quality while enhancing drying efficiency and reducing energy consumption.

Solution
The AK 4 burner is a gas-fired, medium wave infra-red burner designed for industrial use. It provides a homogeneous radiation area of customizable length and width. The burner operates with a combustion air blower, allowing for higher surface temperatures and thermal loads compared to atmospheric gas infra-red burners. It offers precise capacity adjustments between 50-100% based on gas consumption.

Specifications
The burner achieves a surface temperature of 950°C, corresponding to a thermal surface load of approximately 120 kW/m². Installation examples demonstrate its application in drying plants for web-shaped materials, with options for hot air circulation to enhance energy efficiency.

Advantages

Durable industrial design with a corrosion-proof combustion chamber.
Adjustable width and residence time during operation.
Rapid heating and cooling capabilities.
Low emission combustion.
Resistance to dirt due to fresh air filtering and over-pressure.
Effective exhaust air system for vapor removal.

Benefits

High efficiency leading to low energy consumption.
Reduced operating costs through gas usage.
Extended lifespan compared to electrical gas infra-red burners.
High evaporation capacity.
Low spare part costs.
High usability factor.

How is it possible to make a product at the same high quality using a more effective and energy saving drying? Solution GoGaS‘ programme of supply includes a gas-fired, medium wave infra-red burner which was especially developed for the industrial application. By assembling those burners the customer gets an homogeneous radiation area (fig. 1) of almost any length and width. Ceramic Tile Burner, type AK 4 - January 200

The controlled supply of combustion air and gas allows a higher surface temperature and therefore a higher thermal surface load compared to atmospheric gas infra-red burners. Furthermore a more precise adjustment of capacity in a range of 50 – 100 %, referred to gas consumption, is possible. The ceramic tile burner AK 4 reaches a surface...
