Product Overview | Tempest® SE
Built with the quality people have trusted for 100 years. North American, the inventors of the original Tempest high velocity/high excess air burners, presents the 4485 Tempest® SE. The 4485 Tempest® SE is a direct fire, nozzle-mix burner that provides an alternative to the original North American Tempest burner line. It features good temperature uniformity, product quality, and system efficiency through a medium or high velocity stream of hot gases. The 4485 Tempest® SE is available in 4 sizes, with a medium or high velocity tile, with capacities ranging from 500,000 Btu/h HHV (132 kW, LHV) to 1,500,000 Btu/h HHV (396 kW, LHV).
TYPES OF APPLICATIONS
— Periodic kilns — Tunnel kilns — Forge furnaces
— Heat treat furnaces — Galvanizing baths — Scrap preheaters — Cupolas — Pipe coaters — Portable refractory dry out
— Preheat equipment — Tempering furnaces — Reheating furnaces — Hardening furnaces — Fluidized bed dryers
THE HIGH VELOCITY FLAME YOU EXPECT FROM TEMPESTS
Good Control Flexibility The Tempest® SE gives you the choice of pulse firing, excess air, or near stoichiometric ratio control. Wide Turndown Range The Tempest® SE uses high excess air or pulse firing to achieve a wide turndown range while still providing the efficiency benefits of high velocity. Direct Spark The Tempest ® SE delivers the ability to light anywhere through a spark ignition system. The Tempest® SE features standard pre-engineered components to meet many common requirements. With the Tempest® SE you choose the capacity range, tile type, fuel type, thread type and flame sensing components to fit your needs. If you need a burner size outside the 4485 Tempest® SE range or you need an advanced or custom feature, North American has many other high and medium velocity Tempest® and HiRAM® models to choose from (see page 9).
