Achieving Combustion Control

Understand the role of systems for burner management and combustion control: When properly selected and designed, the control systems provide safety and operational efficiencies to thermal processing.
John Becker, Profire Energy Inc.
June 17, 2019
No Comments

Like many of the process industries, thermal processing is a critical necessity to the oil-and-gas industry. Applications range from simple line heaters being fed from a single well to safety instrumented systems at a large-scale refinery. Regardless of the application, the thermal process is measured based on how safe, environmentally friendly and efficient it is.

Optimizing Burner Management and Combustion Control with Safety PLCs

Safety PLC controllers bring several cost benefits to modern industrial heating equipment.
Ron Sustich, Siemens Digital Industries
May 18, 2019
No Comments

When the 2011 edition of the industrial ovens safety standard NFPA 86 was released, for the first time, safety programmable logic controllers (PLCs) were recognized as logic devices suitable for the safe operation of industrial heating equipment. The safety PLC could now perform the control logic, but it still could not directly control the combustion safeguard systems.
