45UV5-1005 Fireye Scanner

Overview

The Fireye 45UV5-1005 is a self-checking ultraviolet (UV) flame scanner designed for industrial and commercial burner management systems. It is engineered to detect UV radiation emitted by fossil fuel flames while providing a high level of safety through its integrated self-checking mechanism. This scanner is essential for continuously fired applications where burners may not recycle for long periods, as it automatically verifies its own functionality and the integrity of the UV tube every few seconds.

Features

• Self-checking technology utilizes an internal electromagnetic shutter to periodically block the UV sensor, ensuring the system can detect a flame failure even if the sensor fails in a conducting state.
• Ultraviolet (UV) sensing detects emissions from a wide variety of fuels including natural gas, propane, methane, and light petroleum distillates.
• Rugged cast aluminum housing provides durability in demanding industrial environments.
• Quartz viewing window offers superior thermal resistance and optimal UV transmission.
• Replaceable internal components, including the UV tube and shutter assembly, allow for easier field maintenance.
