The 1150 Series LumiFlame Regenerative Burner is the most advanced development in low NOX
combustion technology and fuel efficiency. High fuel efficiency is achieved through regeneration using a pair
of burners which cycle to alternately heat the combustion air or recover and store the heat from the furnace
exhaust gases. When one burner is firing, the other is exhausting the furnace gases. Exhaust gases pass
through the burner body and into a media case, which contains refractory material. The refractory media is
heated by the exhaust gases, thus recovering and storing energy from the flue products. When the media
bed is fully heated, the burner currently firing is turned off and begins to exhaust the flue products. The
burner with the hot media bed begins firing. Combustion air passes through the media bed and is heated by
the hot refractory. Air preheat temperatures within 300°F (149°C) of the products of combustion are
achieved resulting in exceptionally high thermal efficiency.
