Combustion Control Systems

Optimizing efficiency, safety, and emissions compliance through advanced automation.

Why Combustion Control Matters

Modern industrial burner performance hinges on advanced combustion controls that optimize efficiency, safety, and emissions compliance. Effective control systems manage modulation, fuel delivery, air supply, and real-time monitoring—critical for both steady-state operations and dynamic load changes.

Key Control System Components

Burner Automation & Safety

Burner Management Systems (BMS)

Centralized safety logic that ensures proper startup, operation, and shutdown sequences, preventing unsafe combustion conditions.

Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS)

Redundant safety layers to handle critical shutdowns and interlocks.

Air-Fuel Ratio & Modulation

Advanced systems use electronic sensors and actuators to continuously adjust the air-fuel ratio, providing:

  • Improved combustion efficiency
  • Lower fuel costs
  • Adaptability to load variation
Modern controls often integrate with plant-level automation platforms (e.g., DCS, PLC), enabling real-time diagnostics and remote monitoring.

Integrated Digital Combustion Architecture

These systems not only ensure safe and efficient combustion but also provide actionable insights through data analytics and performance optimization workflows.

  • Modular and fault tolerant
  • Capable of complex logic sequencing
  • Integrated with enterprise systems (SCADA / PKS)
