61-6845 Fireye Outer Assembly

Overview

The Fireye 61-6845 is a high-quality 6-foot (1829 mm) outer carrier assembly designed for industrial flame monitoring systems. It serves as a protective housing for fiber optic bundles, specifically engineered to bridge the gap between the burner environment and the flame scanner electronics. This assembly is a critical component for applications where a direct line of sight to the flame is obstructed or where high ambient temperatures require the electronics to be mounted at a distance. It is compatible with glass or quartz fiber optic bundles to suit various spectral requirements and environmental conditions.

Features

• Protective Construction: Built to withstand harsh industrial environments, ensuring the integrity of the inner fiber optic bundle.
• Flexible Optics Support: Designed to house and protect either glass or quartz fiber optic inner carrier assemblies.
• Optimal Length: The 72-inch (6-foot) length provides sufficient reach for most industrial burner configurations.
• Precision Alignment: Facilitates accurate transmission of the flame signal from the burner to the scanner.
• Durable Materials: Typically constructed from industrial-grade metals to resist mechanical wear and heat exposure.

Applications

The 61-6845 outer carrier assembly is used in industrial and commercial combustion systems where traditional flame scanners cannot be mounted directly to the burner sight pipe. It is commonly employed in large boilers, kilns, and furnaces where high temperatures or physical obstructions necessitate the use of fiber optic light guides. It is essential for monitoring flames from various fuel sources, including natural gas, oil, and coal, providing a reliable path for the UV or IR radiation to reach the flame safeguarding control system.
