Ceramic Plaque Burner Specifications

The ceramic plaque gas burners can maintain a continuous operating temperature of 1,350°C (max) and typical loading of 300 BTU/Sq. inch in infrared. The ceramic tile has a depth of ½” which makes it less susceptible to backlight or backflash.

Solaronics’ ceramic plaque gas burners can block certain areas of the tile to manipulate the heat pattern that allows for even heat distribution. You can anticipate a slower warm-up period of up to several minutes to get the full temperature to output infrared (IR) and it will not oxidize. We use gasket material around the ceramic plaques and under the retainers for sealing purposes.

Ceramic Plaque Burner Applications

The ceramic plaque gas burner can be used in a variety of industries including commercial and residential food cooking and industrial process heating. Some of the typical applications of ceramic plaque gas burners include the use of fryers, broiler burners, BBQ burners, rotisseries, cheese melters, salamanders, and much more.
