Standard refractory block is shown in background and burner equipped with seal and support assembly in foreground.
• Stir up the heat in your furnace with exit velocities up to 275 ft/sec (185 MPH) to promote
workload heat penetration and better temperature uniformity
• Operate on-ratio, with excess fuel, or with excess air to meet the specific demands of your
combustion process needs
• Burn most clean, low pressure gaseous fuels or #2 light oil with only 8-16 ounce
combustion air pressures
• 48:1 turndown capability promotes faster bring-up times without temperature override
• Maximum application flexibility provided with seven different sizes and capabilities up to
8,400,000 Btu/hr per burner
• Lower fuel consumption by using preheated combustion air up to 800°F (427°C)
• Lightweight refractory-less burner with stainless steel combustion sleeve for air heating
applications
• Alternate refractory block materials for chamber temperatures up to 3000°F (1649°C)

KINEMAX® Burners
Principle of Operation Series G KINEMAX® Burners
for gas only firing
With Series G KINEMAX® Burners,
combustion air enters the burner body and
is swirled out into the burner block (or
sleeve) through the internal air orifice plate.
Low pressure gas enters the burner
body and exits to the block through
machined ports in the gas nozzle.
The gas and air are intimately mixed in
the cast burner block tunnel. The spark
ignitor is positioned to intersect the fuel/air
mixture directly in front of the nozzle face.
Pilot gas is introduced directly behind the
gas ports in the gas nozzle and essentially
flows through to the burner block through
the same ports as does the main gas. The
pilot capacity is the minimum firing rate of
the KINEMAX® Burner.
With Series C KINEMAX® Burners,
combustion air enters the burner body and
is swirled out into the burner block (or Series C KINEMAX® Burners
sleeve) through the air orifice plate. Low for gas/oil firing
pressure gas enters the body and exits to
the block/sleeve through the gas tube and
nozzle.
For light oil firing, the #2 oil enters
through the strainer and oil tube going to the
oil spinner nozzle where the stream of liquid
oil is atomized by the atomizing air directly in
front of the spark ignitor.
Gas for the pilot comes in through a
separate inlet in the gas body and flows
down the gas tube where it spins out the
face of the gas nozzle in front of the spark
ignitor.
KINEMAX® Burners provide a higher velocity set to give a choice between on-ratio and excess air,

Installation Instructions
General Instructions
The burner itself is normally only a part of your
complete combustion system. Additional pipe train
accessories and control components will be required
for a complete system installation. The sketch below
shows a typical pipe train system as might be used
with gas-fired KINEMAX® Burners.
Important: Do not discard packing material until
all loose items are accounted for.
To prevent damage in transit, the control valves,
pipe trains, spark ignitor, mounting gaskets, flame rod
and connecting linkage components may be packed
separately and shipped loose with your new Maxon
