Abstract
A burner system, especially for a vehicle heater, includes a fuel atomizer arrangement (20) for feeding fuel into a combustion chamber, a fuel pump arrangement (16) for feeding fuel, which is under pressure, to the fuel atomizer arrangement (20), as well as a pressure regulator arrangement (26) for setting the fuel pressure in a fuel line area (18) leading from the fuel pump arrangement (16) to the fuel atomizer arrangement (20). The pressure regulator arrangement (26) has a plurality of pressure regulator units (28, 30), and wherein at least some (28) of the pressure regulator units (28, 30) can be activated and deactivated to change the pressure regulation characteristic of the pressure regulator arrangement (26).
Claims20
A vehicle heater burner system, comprising:
- a fuel atomizer arrangement for feeding fuel into a combustion chamber;
- a fuel pump arrangement for feeding fuel under pressure to said fuel atomizer arrangement;
- a fuel line area leading from said fuel pump arrangement to said fuel atomizer arrangement;
- a pressure regulator arrangement for setting the fuel pressure in said fuel line area leading from said fuel pump arrangement to said fuel atomizer arrangement, said pressure regulator arrangement having a plurality of pressure regulator units, at least one of said pressure regulator units being activated and deactivated to change the pressure regulation characteristic of said pressure regulator arrangement.
A burner system, comprising:
- a fuel atomizer arrangement for feeding fuel into a combustion chamber;
- a fuel pump arrangement for feeding fuel under pressure to said fuel atomizer arrangement;
- a fuel line area leading from said fuel pump arrangement to said fuel atomizer arrangement;
- a pressure regulator arrangement for setting the fuel pressure in said fuel line area leading from said fuel pump arrangement to said fuel atomizer arrangement, said pressure regulator arrangement including a plurality of pressure regulator units, each of said pressure regulator units being selectively connected to said fuel line area leading from said fuel pump arrangement to said fuel atomizer arrangement and being connected to a fuel reservoir via a fuel drain line to regulate a pressure level of said fuel line area leading from said fuel pump arrangement to said fuel atomizer arrangement.
