DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLIANCE
NOx identifies the group of the two most important nitrogen oxides:
- NO Nitrogen monoxide (not harmful to humans)
- NO
2
Nitrogen dioxide (very harmful to humans and the envi
-
ronment).
NOx is formed during combustion processes at high temperatures.
To reduce NOx emissions it is necessary to cool the flame.
The water inside the water heater, after have been heated by heat
exchanger, gets in the burner, cools the flame and gets out to the
final user.
The special burner cools the flame and check the airflow neces
-
sary for the combustion, set up “cooled flames” avoiding the loss
of thermal efficiency, generating an optimal combustion with low
emissions
