Product Description
The BrightFire
®
200 burner is an adjustable, low NO
X
, air-
fuel burner for installation in regenerative type glass
furnaces. It can be installed in either end-fired or cross-
fired furnaces, as well as in under port or side-of-port
configurations. It is designed to work with the Eclipse
Gimbal Mounting Bracket to provide excellent adjust-
ability of the flame position within the furnace. Additionally
the socket plate provides for a positive seal against the
burner block ensuring air is not infiltrated into the furnace.
Cooling air is provided through the inner gas tube during
off-firing cycles to prevent nozzle burnout.
These burners are of a welded, stainless steel body
construction, produce a highly adjustable flame, and
provide superior heat transfer to the glass melt. Multiple
burners may be used in each port. Port design must be
compatible with the burner.
