Low NOx vs. Standard Burners
Low NOx designs can reduce emissions substantially, but they may require tighter tuning and stronger controls discipline to avoid CO rise or stability issues. The right choice depends on your target and operating envelope.
Choose low NOx when
- Your permit requires strict NOx limits.
- You can support careful commissioning and ongoing tuning.
- Your furnace/boiler geometry supports staging and mixing needs.
Choose standard when
- NOx limits are moderate and uptime is the highest priority.
- Fuel quality varies significantly and tuning resources are limited.
- Wide turndown and robust low-load stability are essential.
