Transmitter role
25 November 2015
When operating an oil-fired boiler the overall efficiency of the fuel is largely due to the particle size of the oil and its viscosity which requires accurate measurement of temperature and pressure to give a consistent fuel jet and maximise the efficiency of the burner. Bürkert has developed a range of pressure transmitters which provide a standardised 4-20mA output and are easily integrated into the control loop to provide accurate data.
Measurement of temperature is also important to ensure the correct flow rate of fuel and this can be accomplished with an integrated transmitter such as the Type 8400 which provides information via a built-in display as well as an analogue or fieldbus signal.
The company also offers a range of monitoring and control devices for gas-fired boilers.
