DANGER
The burners covered in this manual are designed to mix fuel with
oxygen and burn the resulting mixture. All fuel burning devices
are capable of producing fires and explosions when improperly
applied, installed, adjusted, controlled or maintained.Do not
bypass any safety feature; fire or explosion could result.Never try
to light the burner if it shows signs of damage or malfunction.
WARNING
The burner is likely to have HOT surfaces. Always wear protec-
tive clothing when approaching the burner. Honeywell products
are designed to minimize the use of materials that contain
crystalline silica. Examples of these chemicals are: respirable
crystalline silica from bricks, cement or other masonry products
and respirable refractory ceramic fibers from insulating blankets, boards, or gaskets. Despite these efforts, dust created
by sanding, sawing, grinding, cutting and other construction
activities could release crystalline silica. Crystalline silica is
known to cause cancer, and health risks from the exposure to
these chemicals vary depending on the frequency and length of
exposure to these chemicals. To reduce the risk, limit exposure
to these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area and wear approved personal protective safety equipment for these chemicals.
CAUTION
This manual gives information for the use of these burners for
their specific design purpose. Do not deviate from any instructions or application limits in this manual without written advice
from Honeywell.
Capabilities
Only qualified personnel, with good mechanical aptitude and experience with combustion equipment, should adjust, maintain, or
troubleshoot any mechanical or electrical part of this system.
Operator Training
The best safety precaution is an alert and trained operator. Train new
operators thoroughly and have them demonstrate an adequate understanding of the equipment and its operation. A regular retraining
schedule should be administered to ensure operators maintain a
high degree of proficiency.
Replacement Parts
Order replacement parts from Honeywell only. Any customersupplied valves or switches should carry UL, FM, CSA, CGA and/or CE
approval where applicable.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Forehearth oxygen gas burners are small, nozzle mixing burners designed to be inserted into the forehearth to provide temperature homogeneity throughout the glass by increasing the heat of the glass melt
in the area near the forehearth wall where cooling occurs more rapidly.
These burners consist of a 300-series stainless steel gas tip
and a 300-series stainless steel or oxygen nozzle. They produce a short, bright flame intended to keep the temperature of the glass near the forehearth wall, where cooling is
most rapid, at the same level as the middle of the glass bed.
Forehearth burners use one size body for all nozzle sizes making for
easier maintenance and greater capacity flexibility. They fire natural
gas and come with a unique block to fit the exact requirements of
the burner.
BENEFITS
– Cooler running burner and block for increased reliability and
product life
– No maintenance design for less downtime and lower mainte-
nance costs
– Simple design, easy to configure and order for your specific
application
– Easy to set up and operate
– 60% reduction in fuel consumption*
– 80% NOx reduction*
– Fewer total burners required*
– No blowers required for the combustion process*
*as compared with Air-Fuel Pre-Mix solutions
