FULTON PDWH1000, Installation, Operation And Maintanance Manual

The application of the pulse combustion principle illustrates
how fresh perceptions and changing needs can breathe new
life into an old idea. The oldest patents related to this method
of burning in a resonating system were issued before the end
of the 19th century.
Today... advanced pulse technology has finally found and
proven its way to the water heater industry. Fulton has
brought pulse combustion applications out of the residential
and light commercial application to larger commercial/industrial
heating uses.
Benefits of Gas Pulse Combustion:
Reliability
Flame sensing by pressure, no constant blower required.
Durability
These water heaters are constructed to ASME Code. The
design compensates for expansion and contraction which
cause other water heaters to eventually leak or fail.
No Expensive Chimney Needed
The pulse combustion system is self-venting through an
AL29-4C stainless steel vent. Sidewall venting does not
require a draft inducing fan.
Highest Efficiency Possible
Water heater efficiency is up to 99% depending on water
temperature.
Simple Reliable Spark Plug Ignition
No pilot or complex start sequence. Only a small assist
starting fan is required. Following ignition this is shut off so
there is no continuous electrical usage.
Gas and Pulse Combustion
Our country's most abundant natural resource...gas...
combined with modern-day pulse combustion is the cleanest
most efficient combination for commercial/industrial
applications today.
NOx (Nitrogen Oxides) commonly referred to as “smog” is a
prime contributor to acid rain. Environmental control agencies
are beginning to deal with this pollution problem. The Fulton
self-venting pulse combustion water heaters already meet or
exceed most new emission standards being set.
