Flame Plasma for Webs
High Velocity Flame Treatment with Advanced Control
Ideal for cleaning & increasing surface energy of films, foils and paperboard
Enercon Flame Treaters feature a unique high velocity power burner for highly effective and long lasting treatment. Superior web handling and advanced combustion control options ensure reliable and repeatable treatment results.
What is a Flame Plasma?
A flame plasma is formed when a flammable gas and atmospheric air are combined and combusted to form an intense blue flame. The surface of materials are made polar as species in the flame plasma affect the electron distribution and density on the surface. This polarization is made through oxidation. In addition, functional groups are deposited on the surface.
What applications benefit from Flame Plasma treatment?
Flame Plasma effectively functionalizes BOPP, PET, OPP, PE, Coextruded films, paperboard, metal foils, and foams for numerous product applications in the food, automotive, medical, industrial tape & textile industries.

Flame Plasma Safety
FAIL SAFE DESIGN
Stops gas flow if any critical device in the cabinet fails
SAFETY SOLENOID VALVES
Redundant valves in the gas train immediately prevent gas flow if any of the monitored variables are not satisfied.
PRESSURE SWITCHES
Mounted to air and gas lines to detect adequate pressure
REVERSE FLOW VALVE
Prevents backflow into the gas line
FLAME DETECTION ELECTRODE
Works in conjunction with the flame safety relay to monitor the presence of the flame at the burner.
FLAME SAFETY RELAY
Monitors flame & controls the redundant safety solenoid gas line valves
Enercon systems are designed to operate in a maximum ambient temperature of 40°C (104°F) @ 80% relative humidity, non-condensing.
