101806-004 Fireye Fiber Optic

Overview

The Fireye 101806-004 is a 100-inch metal-sheathed glass fiber optic bundle designed for use with industrial flame scanner systems. This specialized component acts as a high-fidelity optical conduit, transmitting flame radiation from the combustion zone to a remotely mounted scanner. It is specifically engineered for environments where a direct line of sight is obstructed by diffusers, air compartments, or complex burner geometry. The protective metal sheath ensures the delicate glass fiber core remains shielded from high temperatures and mechanical damage, allowing for reliable flame monitoring in demanding boiler and burner applications.

Features

• Flexible 100-inch length enables scanner mounting at a safe distance from intense heat zones.
• Durable metal sheathing protects the glass fibers from heat, abrasion, and environmental hazards.
• High-quality glass fiber core preserves signal integrity for accurate flame detection.
• Provides a reliable optical path for indirect routing through windboxes or around obstructions.
• OEM design ensures seamless integration and precise alignment with compatible Fireye scanner assemblies.

Applications

The Fireye 101806-004 is primarily used in industrial burner and boiler systems across various sectors including power generation, petrochemical refining, and pulp and paper mills. It is essential for layouts where the burner apparatus would otherwise obscure the flame from a standard surface-mounted scanner. It is commonly employed in large-scale utility boilers to monitor individual burner flames within a furnace fireball, as well as in industrial combustion systems requiring retrofitted flame safeguard solutions.
