Eclipse TFB, V2, Design Guide 310, 11/14/2014
Product Description
The TFB is a nozzle-mixing burner designed for tube firing
applications with multiple fuel capability. The burner
consists of a housing, rear cover, air and fuel inlet blocks,
spark rod, flame rod (if selected), UV scanner adapter (if
selected), gas tube, nozzle and air shroud.
Burner design provides:
• Adjustable air shroud to maintain correct air velocity
for different sized tube applications and fuels.
• Uniform tube temperatures for extending tube life.
Heat Exchanger
The TFB can be used with or without an exhaust leg
recuperator. An exhaust leg recuperator is a heat
exchanger that transfers heat from the exhaust air to the
combustion air. Preheating the combustion air can
increase the fuel efficiency by as much as 20%. The TFB
can handle combustion air temperatures up to 1000°F.
The recommended recuperators for the TFB are the
Eclipse Bayonet (Data 317) and the Bayonet-Ultra (Spec.
318).
