Astec Phoenix® Talon 2 Burner
Overview
Advanced Emission Reduction, Electric Power Efficiency, Firing Efficiency, Compact Flame Size
The Astec Phoenix® Talon 2 burner utilizes the latest burner technology to deliver very low emissions combined with energy efficiency. With the optional silencer, it’s even possible to have a phone conversation on the burner platform while it is firing.
The use of a multiple, parallel, turbulent, tube mixer achieves nearly perfect mixing of gaseous fuel and air to achieve an advanced low NOx and CO method called lean-burn premix. High-quality mixing of air and fuel creates the most compact flame available with a small combustion zone. This ensures that all of the fuel is combusted for peak efficiency without taking away valuable dryer heating capacity.
The variable speed main combustion blower drive helps provide precise firing rate control and uses much less electrical energy. It also eliminates the need for an air damper and for drive motor adjustments and maintenance.
