The M7 High Efficiency Burner is engineered for long-lasting performance, energy efficiency, and complete combustion reliability, making it a practical and dependable solution for your industrial thermal heating processes. By enhancing the efficiency of your thermal heating appliances, it reduces your fuel consumption, lowers your emissions, and delivers a proven return on investment—helping you save more while wasting less.

Key benefits include:

  • High Efficiency: Achieves up to 82% combustion efficiency when paired with the High Efficiency M7 Secondary Airplate and M7 Pilot.
  • Powerful Capacity: Handles up to 2MM BTU/hr, with the option to pair for greater output.
  • User-Friendly Design: Rear mix nut for quick orifice inspection/replacement and an optional flue gas return port to prevent freezing.
  • Quiet Operation: Among the quietest burners available, running as low as 30.4 dB.

The M7 Burner is built for efficiency and durability, providing a dependable and quiet solution to support your system’s performance.

The Profire M7 Pilot

The Profire M7 Pilot is a natural draft pilot tailored to complement the M7 Burner and provide your combustion process with reliable ignition. The M7 Pilot improves your natural draft heating system with reliable ignition, precise flame detection, and primary air control. It gives you greater control over your ignition processes, ensuring consistent performance and dependable results.

What are Pilots?

Pilots are essential for industrial heating systems, ensuring reliable ignition and minimizing downtime during burner shutdowns. With built-in safety features, they prevent gas buildup and work with burner management systems to shut off fuel if no flame is detected. Regular pilot maintenance supports ignition efficiency, reduces fuel use & emissions, and helps you meet your operational & ESG goals. A high-quality, well-maintained pilot enhances ignition reliability, safety, and energy performance, directly improving system sustainability.

Dependable Performance with the M7 Pilot

The M7 Pilot is designed for efficiency and reliability. Its rear-mounted removable orifice holder allows quick access for inspection and easy replacement, saving you time during maintenance. With a built-in flue gas return port for antifreeze protection, it delivers dependable performance even in extreme cold. The Precise Primary Air Adjustment system ensures optimal operation, making the M7 Pilot a smart choice for thermal heating applications.

How the M7 Pilot Works

The M7 Pilot ensures consistent burner ignition with a stable flame profile, reducing downtime and improving system reliability. Built on proven natural draft burner technology, it features user-friendly enhancements to streamline operation and minimize flame failures.

Paired with an external electrode, the M7 Pilot utilizes flame ionization technology for ignition and flame detection, ensuring seamless performance for critical emission control systems.

Profire M7 High Efficiency Airplate 2

The Profire M7 High Efficiency Airplate

The Profire M7 High Efficiency Airplate is a natural draft secondary air control (SAC) that allows for precise air control to maximize combustion while minimizing—or eliminating—expensive damage from flame impingement. The M7 Airplate is designed to enhance your combustion efficiency.

What are Secondary Airplates?

Part of the secondary air control system, secondary airplates are engineered to maximize the combustion efficiency of your natural draft heaters by precisely regulating air flow. By controlling excess airflow, these systems deliver measurable improvements in performance—often boosting efficiency by 30-50%. The result? Significant fuel savings, reduced flame impingement, and precise, adjustable airflow that maximizes combustion in your application.

How the M7 High Efficiency Airplate Improves Air Control

The M7 High Efficiency Airplate optimizes efficiency by giving you precise control over excess airflow. Its fiberglass insulation ring ensures a tight seal between the firetube and airplate, enhancing airflow control for improved combustion and overall burner performance. Paired with the M7 High Efficiency Burner, advanced combustion analysis, and appropriate fuel train pressure settings, the M7 High Efficiency Airplate can boost combustion efficiency by up to 30%. That means lower fuel consumption, fewer emissions, and reduced operating costs related to maintenance and callouts.

The Benefits of the M7 Series

The Profire M7 Series is designed with you in mind—efficient, reliable, and built for seamless performance. This natural draft burner system is engineered to minimize flame failures, optimize burn processes, and increase system efficiencies, all while keeping your operations running smoothly and reducing costly downtime.
