45RM2-1000 Fireye Scanner

Overview

The Fireye 45RM2-1000 is a self-checking infrared flame scanner designed to detect the presence or absence of flame in industrial combustion chambers. Utilizing advanced infrared sensing technology, this scanner is specifically engineered to monitor flames with background constant (BGC) characteristics, ensuring high reliability in discriminating between a target flame and background radiation. It is designed for use with Fireye 25SU3 and 25SU5 flame safeguard controls to provide critical ignition and flame failure protection.

Features

• Infrared (IR) detection technology optimized for sensing red and infrared radiation in the primary combustion zone.
• Self-checking mechanism that continuously verifies the integrity of the scanner and its internal circuitry for enhanced safety.
• High discrimination capabilities to distinguish between target flames and background radiation or furnace fireball.
• Durable die-cast aluminum housing designed to withstand harsh industrial environments.
• Electronic shutter assembly which replaces mechanical parts to improve reliability and response time.
• Integrated signal processing that works in conjunction with compatible Fireye amplifiers to provide a stable flame signal.

Applications

The 45RM2-1000 is primarily used in industrial and commercial burner management systems. It is ideally suited for:

• Boilers and furnaces in power plants or manufacturing facilities.
• Multi-burner environments where flame discrimination is essential to avoid nuisance shutdowns.
• Systems utilizing fuels that produce significant infrared radiation, such as natural gas, oil, and pulverized coal.
• Hazardous or high-temperature environments requiring robust, fail-safe flame monitoring.
