Thermix has worked hard over the years to develop efficient and reliable heating systems for conventional galvanizing kettles. Thermix was one of the first companies in North America to implement the use of pulse firing for externally heated kettles. Thermix has been at the forefront of the new trend to heat large galvanizing kettles with high velocity burners.
Careful attention is paid to the relationship between the high velocity flame and the kettle.
Our design incorporates features that were developed using sophisticated CFD techniques. The result is a system that is efficient, easy to maintain, reliable and produces excellent temperature uniformity and response changing conditions. In addition to almost indestructible Hauck SVG burner , particular attention is paid to the control system of every new installation. The standard control is Pulse firing, where temperature is maintained by the regulation of the time that each burner fires, instead of the more conventional proportional control. The advantages of this type of control are many, however the most important is that the high velocity burners are operated to produce the maximum amount of gas mixing inside the setting.
