Air Burners Expands FireBox Line

Air Burners Flagship FireBox Model S-327 has been increased in length by a few feet to yield a new Model S-330. As all our FireBoxes, the S-330 is offered with an air fan that is either Diesel engine powered (S-330) or fitted with an electric motor for connection to the local power grid (S-330E). The Diesel engine is a water-cooled four-cylinder HATZ turbo engine certified EPA Tier4 Final. It does not require Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) or a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) to meet the prevailing Tier4 emissions standards, making it very service friendly. It is controlled by an electronic “Murphy” panel with key witch. California Versions are included in the product lineup.

The standard electric version uses 480V three-phase 60 Hz or 50 Hz input and the premium motor is coupled with a preprogrammed heavy-duty variable frequency drive (VFD) speed controller protected in a NEMA IV housing. Options include an ash cleanout implement (“Ash-rake”), adaptation to 575V line input, a double steel floor and an ember screen for extraordinary applications. The S-330 is shipped fully assembled and requires no onsite assembly. It can be dragged about on its skids with suitable machinery.

The S-330, as all our larger FireBoxes, can also be married to an ORC power module to become a PG-FireBox system generating electricity from the woody biomass combustion process as well as thermal energy for onsite heating or drying purposes. This system powers itself and available PGF Models are rated at 100kW, 500kW and 1MW of gross electric and 1MW, 2.5MW and 5MW respectively of gross thermal power. Energy in excess of what the local yard can consume is typically sold into the public power grid.
