Lanemark launches new in-house process gas burner test facility
Process gas burner specialists , Lanemark Combustion Engineering Ltd ., has completed the development of a new in-house testing facility which is set to enhance services to its customers . The organisation supplies liquid and air heating systems for a wide range of manufacturing and production applications and says the new resource will enable larger , more detailed equipment analysis to take place while helping to optimise customers ’ emission controls .
“ Our range is based on process tank , oven and duct heating systems through our TX ,
FD , FDB and DB series ,” says Jeff Foster , Lanemark ’ s Sales Director , “ and , in all cases , it undergoes the most rigorous testing and analysis procedures . This new facility makes a major contribution in this context .”
Lanemark can now test a greater range of both tank and oven burners in terms of size and output with specified configurations to match precise operating conditions . “ A wider range of emissions can also be monitored including NOx , SO2 , CO2 , CO and O2 through the new facility incorporating a Horiba PG-350 flue gas analyser ,” adds Jeff Foster .
BOILERS & MAINTENANCE
The new test furnace now offers a volume measuring six metres in length and 2.5 metres in diameter and includes 25 viewing ports , each fitted with thermocouples to monitor temperatures of up to 1350 ° C , and pressure transmitters that can accommodate a range from -5 to + 70 mbar . Alongside this , the TX test installation provides improved flue gas testing accuracy and can address common issues such as condensation .
“ The investment underlines our commitment to working closely with customers to ensure our equipment optimises performance , fuel consumption and emissions ,” concludes Jeff Foster .
