In industries where burners play a critical role—from power plants to chemical refineries—ensuring their safe and efficient operation is paramount. At Bacon Engineering, we specialize in PLC-based Burner Management Systems (BMS), leveraging cutting-edge technology and industry expertise to deliver reliable, safe, and customized solutions for our clients.

What Are PLC-Based Burner Management Systems?

Burner Management Systems are designed to oversee the safe startup, operation, and shutdown of industrial burners. When powered by Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), these systems offer unparalleled flexibility, reliability, and performance.

Key Features of PLC-Based BMS:

Advanced Safety Mechanisms:

• Integration of interlocks and safety logic to prevent unsafe operating conditions.
• Compliance with safety standards like NFPA 85/86 and IEC 61508/61511.

Automated Sequences:

• Efficiently manage complex burner startup and shutdown procedures, reducing human error.

Real-Time Flame Monitoring:

• Continuous monitoring of flame presence using detectors to ensure proper operation.

Fault Diagnostics and Alarms:

• Comprehensive diagnostics and fault alarms to enhance operational awareness and reduce downtime.

Integration Capabilities:

• Seamless connectivity with Distributed Control Systems (DCS) or Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems for centralized management.

Redundancy and Reliability:

• Redundant configurations ensure maximum uptime for critical processes.

Why Choose PLC-Based Burner Management Systems?

Industrial processes demand high levels of safety and efficiency. PLC-based BMS systems offer:

• Enhanced Safety: Advanced interlocks and real-time monitoring protect against hazardous conditions like flame failure or improper purging.
• Flexibility: Customizable configurations tailored to meet specific process requirements.
• Scalability: Easily expandable to accommodate additional burners or process upgrades.
• Cost-Effectiveness: Improved reliability and reduced maintenance minimize operational costs.
• Ease of Troubleshooting: Clear diagnostics simplify maintenance and repairs.
