PHOENIX Velocity Heat Burner
Typical applications for the VH burners include batch and continuous furnaces for heat treating, thermal oxidizers, nonferrous melting furnaces, and many more. VH direct fired burners are made to last, built with rugged dependability and reliability in mind.
Integrated gas and air orifices simplify burner piping, set-up and adjustment. The orientation of the integral air and gas inlets are adjustable in 90-degree increments to suit a variety of piping alternatives making installation, operation and maintenance simple and cost effective.
The VH burners can be operated on-ratio and with fixed air control schemes. The built-in ignitor ensures reliable ignition of the VH burners across the entire operating range.
High-temperature powder coated components assure that the burner will stand up to the demanding environments of industrial heat treat applications. All burner components are easily accessible making annual maintenance of the burner fast and easy.
The VH burners are designed to be compatible with the Honeywell® (1) and Eclipse® (2) ThermJet burners and are a direct replacement for the TJ burners without any material impact on performance and other operational aspects of the process.

Features & Benefits
Highest velocity flame
The VH produces an intense stream of hot gases to thoroughly penetrate the load and deliver precise temperature uniformity for consistent product quality and system efficiency.
Large turndown combined with high excess air
A wide turndown range with high excess air means VH delivers high velocity benefits and efficiencies across its operating range.
Customization with packaged convenience
All VH components have been pre-engineered to come together to meet your specific requirements. You choose the capacity, combustor material and outlet velocity, fuel type, and flame sensing components you need to do the job.
Unparalleled fuel and control convenience
The VH offers the convenience of multi-fuel capability with no nozzle change. Plus, you can use any control methodology; pulse firing, excess air or on-ratio.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Are your burners direct ThermJet replacements?
Yes, our Velocity Heat burners have an identical footprint and operational envelope as the Eclipse® ThermJet burners. This is to maintain familiarity for our customers in operation and installation of the burners.
Are spare parts interchangeable between Velocity Heat and ThermJet burners?
Yes, our Velocity Heat and the ThermJet share the most common spare parts. This includes alloy and ceramic combustors, nozzles, igniters, flame rods, o-rings, and mounting gaskets.
What is the lead time for the Velocity Heat burners?
Our goal is to ship burners in as little as four weeks. We keep stock of all the necessary burner components to allow the building and shipping of burners as quickly as possible.
Will you release more burner models than you currently show on your website?
Yes. Later this year we are planning to add to our Velocity Heat furnace burner line with capacities up to 10,000,000 BTU/hr.
How quickly can you ship spares to me?
We ship parts that are in stock, in five days or less.
