Oil and gas burners are devices that are used for oil or gas as fuel to generate heat. They are mostly used in heating systems, boilers, and furnaces. Oil and gas burners are also widely used in industrial applications, for instance, power generation and manufacturing.

Types of oil and gas burners

There are mainly two types of oil and gas burners:

Air-atomizing burners: Air-atomizing burners utilise a stream of compressed air to atomize the fuel. Thus it can break the steam down into small droplets. Thus the fuel can burn more efficiently and completely.

Mechanical burners: Mechanical burners with a rotating disk or cup can atomize the fuel. Mechanical burners are typically less costly than air-atomizing burners, but they are also less efficient.

How oil and gas burners work

Oil and gas burners function by mixing the fuel with air and then igniting it. As an outcome flame heats the combustion chamber, and then transfers heat to the heating system or boiler.

Oil and gas burners typically come with the following components:

Fuel pump: The fuel pump sends the fuel to the burner.
Air blower: The air blower pushes air to the burner.
Nozzle: The nozzle atomizes the fuel to mix it with air.
Igniter: The igniter ignites the fuel mixture.
Combustion chamber: Inside the combustion chamber the fuel burns.

A well-maintained oil or gas burner always functions more efficiently compared to a dirty or poorly maintained burner. This can save you money on your energy bills. When it comes to oil burner service you can count on O’Brien Boiler Services Pty Ltd.
