A head assembly for a radiant burner, an inlet assembly and a method are disclosed. The head assembly is for a radiant burner. The head assembly may include a housing defining a plurality of identical housing apertures extending therethrough, an insulator received by the housing and defining a corresponding plurality of identical, complimentarily-located insulator apertures extending therethrough, and at least one inlet assembly configured to be received by one of the identical housing apertures. Each inlet assembly may include a housing portion configured to be received by the one of the identical housing apertures, and an insulator portion configured to fill the complimentarily-located insulator aperture. In this way, a head assembly is provided which has a number of apertures, any of which may receive an inlet assembly. Given that each inlet assembly is configured to be received by any of the apertures, this provides flexibility for the insertion and removal of the assemblies, without needing to completely disassemble the head assembly from the radiant burner. Also, by forming the inlet assembly with a housing portion and insulation portion, the assembly can be located within the head assembly and the insulating portion prevents heat damage. |
