Abstract

A system for controlling air/fuel ratio in an air/fuel mixture supplied to a premix burner for gaseous fuels includes a blower (310) for inducting and pressurising combustion air, a Venturi-pipe (330) for governing a rate of gas to be mixed into the combustion air, and a pressure regulator (230) interconnecting a source of gaseous fuel to a supply point in the Venturi pipe (330). A preheated reaction chamber (500) and a lambda sond (620) are connected to a controller (350) controlling an amount of air bypassing said Venturi-pipe (330).
