DURAG DHG-400 High Energy Ignition & Flame Monitoring System
Overview
The DURAG DHG-400 combines high energy ignition technology with flame monitoring capabilities to ensure safe burner operation in industrial combustion systems. The device is designed to reliably ignite both gas and liquid fuels using a high-energy spark and to continuously verify flame presence through integrated detection and signal feedback. With more than three decades of proven design evolution, the DHG-400 is trusted for demanding safety-critical environments.Â
Core Features & Technology
-
High Energy Ignition: Generates reliable ignition energy up to 90 J/s for consistent spark ignition of gas and oil burners.Â
-
Microcontroller-Monitored Ignition: Ensures controlled, monitored triggering with electronic protection against defective ignition tips.Â
-
Ignition Feedback Relay: Includes relay contact output for ignition feedback and integration with control systems.Â
-
UV Flame Detection: Works with UV-type detectors (e.g., D-LE103 and D-UG120024D-420) to confirm flame presence and sustain safe operation.Â
-
Robust Operation: Operating temperature range from –20 °C to +60 °C, suitable for industrial environments.Â
-
Optional Retraction Unit: Enables automatic retraction of the ignition tip from the hot combustion zone for extended component life.Â
Performance & Design
The DHG-400 employs a thyristor-controlled capacitor discharge circuit that produces high-energy sparks for ignition. This non-wearing electronic switching approach enhances longevity and reliability compared with traditional ignition systems. The ignition discharge frequency adapts during operation to ensure proper fuel ignition.Â
The system can be configured with various ignition lance lengths and explosion-proof housings (ATEX/IECEx compliant variants) for use in hazardous zones.Â
Typical Industrial Applications
The DURAG DHG-400 is used in a wide range of combustion systems where safety and reliability are essential:
-
Industrial Boilers
-
Power Generation Plants
-
