60-2380-4 Fireye Scanner

Overview

The Fireye 60-2380-4 is a replacement infrared (IR) flame scanner designed for use with the 45RM4-1000EX series flame scanners. It serves as a critical sensing component within industrial burner management and flame safeguard systems, utilizing lead sulfide (PbS) technology to detect the presence or absence of a flame by monitoring specific flicker frequencies. This scanner is engineered for high discrimination, allowing it to distinguish between the targeted burner flame and background radiation or adjacent flames in complex multi-burner environments.

Features

• Infrared (IR) detection using a large-area lead sulfide cell to prevent cell washout from background brightness.
• Electronic self-checking technology for continuous monitoring and reliable operation.
• High discrimination capability to accurately identify flame-on and flame-off conditions.
• Compatible with a 16-position rotary selector on the primary housing to tune into specific flame flicker frequencies (30-180 Hz).
• Integral 10-segment LED bar graph support for easy installation, alignment, and signal strength monitoring.
• Quick disconnect design for simplified field installation and maintenance.

Specifications

• Model: 60-2380-4
• Sensing Technology: Lead Sulfide (PbS) Infrared
• Operating Voltage: 24 VDC (supplied by a compatible Fireye amplifier)
• Temperature Rating: -40 degree F to 150 degree F (-40 degree C to +65 degree C)
• Humidity: 0% to 95% relative humidity, non-condensing
• Housing Compatibility: Designed for NEMA 7, Class I, Division 1 & 2 (Groups C, D) and Class II, Division 1 & 2 (Groups E, F, G) environments.
• Spectral Range: 700 nm to 2500 nm

Applications

The 60-2380-4 scanner is used in conjunction with Fireye 25SU3 and 25SU5 series amplifiers and flame safeguard controls. It is specifically designed for monitoring “dirty” fuels such as pulverized coal, heavy oil, and waste gases where low-to-mid frequency flicker is predominant. Common applications include large multi-burner boilers in electric power stations, pulp and paper mills, petrochemical refineries, and other heavy industrial combustion systems.
