Product Overview

The Siemens LGK16 Burner Controller for Oil & Gas Industrial Burners is a robust automatic burner control system designed for the safe start-up, supervision, and shutdown of forced-draft burners operating on oil, gas, or dual fuel. It is commonly used in medium to large industrial burners, boilers, furnaces, and process heating systems where operational reliability and safety are essential.

The LGK16 manages the complete burner sequence including pre-purge, ignition, flame monitoring, safety lockout, and controlled shutdown, ensuring stable combustion and compliance with international burner safety standards. It supports multi-stage or modulating burners and includes air pressure supervision for controlled air damper operation, improving combustion stability and system safety.

The controller incorporates a self-checking flame signal amplifier, which continuously verifies the flame detection circuit to prevent unsafe burner operation due to faulty flame signals or detector issues.

With its durable design and reliable timing system, the LGK16 is widely used by OEM burner manufacturers and industrial heating system integrators for dependable burner automation.
