TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present invention relates to a total premix gas / air burner (also called “premix burner”).BACKGROUND ART
[0002] Total air / gas premix burners are currently known to be widely employed to produce thermal energy in gas boilers.
[0003] The use of these burners is becoming rapidly more common, replacing the traditional atmospheric burners because with respect to the latter they allow to:
[0004] [A] have lower polluting substance emissions (nitrogen and carbon oxides);
[0005] [B] have high thermal exchange efficiencies at all thermal power rates, and in particular at minimum thermal power; and
[0006] [C] have high modulation ranges between maximum and minimum thermal power of the burner.
[0007] At present premix air / gas burners are mainly made using the following essential components:
[0008] a fan for supplying the air / gas mixture to a combustion head;
[0009] a “pneumatically” actuated gas valve provided with a flow regulator;
[0010] an air / gas mixing system consisting of a venturi ...
