DEF

A gas-air proportioning device that causes the flow of combustion air to induce the proper amount of gas into the airstream. It is used with low pressure air and zero gas.

CONT

The premix aspirator burner system is very common and is probably the simplest of all the burner systems... This system does not require high gas pressure gas(1 lb. or above). It does require a blower as well as a zero pressure regulator. The aspirator mixer is actually a device that intimately mixes the air and gas to insure complete combustion. This mixture goes through a venturi tube and exits at the burner tip where it combusts.
