61-4468-1 Fireye Assembly

Overview

The Fireye 61-4468-1 is a replacement shutter and bracket assembly specifically designed for use with Fireye 45RM1 and 45RM2 flame scanners. This mechanical assembly plays a critical role in the self-checking process of the flame safeguard system, ensuring that the scanner can accurately distinguish between a real flame and a simulated signal or sensor failure. By periodically blocking the scanner’s view, the shutter allows the system to verify the integrity of the ultraviolet or infrared sensor.

Features

• High-quality mechanical shutter mechanism for reliable flame signal interruption.
• Integrated bracket design for precise alignment with 45RM series scanner housings.
• Durable construction suitable for the high-temperature environments of industrial burner front plates.
• Facilitates the “self-check” safety function required for continuous-process burners.

Applications

The 61-4468-1 is primarily used in industrial and commercial combustion systems where Fireye 45RM1 or 45RM2 flame scanners are installed. These systems are commonly found on large boilers, kilns, and furnaces that operate continuously or for long periods without shutting down. It is an essential component for maintaining the safety compliance of flame safeguard systems in power plants, chemical processing facilities, and manufacturing plants.
