Conrad Kacsik Instrument Systems Engineering Division recently completed a multiple burner control system upgrade for a manufacturer in the rail and transit industry.
The system is comprised of a new control panel containing a touchscreen operator interface controlled by a Honeywell HC900 integrated with Specview HMI software. The project also included the addition of blocking valves before each burner and the installation of new flame safety relays that allow independent operation.
In the event of a single burner failure, the addition of blocking valves coupled with a new control scheme allows continued operation of the remaining burners.
Furnace operation can be controlled via the touchscreen computer in the control panel or remotely from a networked computer located within the heat treat-office.
