BP230UVFR‑S4MP Fireye Burner Control

Overview

The Fireye BP230UVFR-S4MP BurnerPRO is a microprocessor-based primary flame safeguard control designed for single-burner applications. It provides comprehensive burner sequencing, ignition control, and continuous flame monitoring for commercial heating and process equipment firing oil and gas fuels. This model features integrated Modbus communication for remote monitoring and Valve Proving (VP) logic to ensure fuel system integrity. Engineered as a modern replacement for electro-mechanical controls, it is functionally compatible with Siemens LFL wiring bases, allowing for straightforward retrofits without extensive wiring changes.

Features

• Dual integrated amplifiers support UV non-self-check scanners, Flame Rods, or combined UV+FR applications
• Integrated Modbus RTU communications for real-time diagnostics and remote monitoring
• Built-in Valve Proving (VP) logic to check the integrity of safety shut-off valves
• Eight SMART LEDs provide clear local indication of operating status and detailed lockout codes
• Non-volatile lockout memory ensures safety status is maintained even after power loss
• Run/Check feature allows operators to pause the sequence for commissioning or troubleshooting
• High-capacity relay contacts designed for demanding industrial environments
• Robust IP40 rated housing suitable for a wide range of installation conditions

Specifications

• Supply Voltage: 230 VAC (+10%, -15%), 50/60 Hz
• Power Consumption: 7 VA
• Operating Temperature: -40 degrees C to +60 degrees C (-40 degrees F to 140 degrees F)
• Protection Category: IP40 (excluding wiring base)
• Timings: Series 4 factory-set operational timings
• Flame Failure Response Time (FFRT): 1 second
• Humidity: 90 percent relative humidity (non-condensing)
• Weight: Approximately 2.5 lbs (1.13 kg)
• Compliance: Designed for non-permanent operation (requires burner recycle every 24 hours) when used with UV sensors

Applications

The BP230UVFR-S4MP is ideally suited for on/off, multi-stage, or modulating burners used in commercial and industrial steam or hot water boilers. It is commonly applied in HVAC systems, kiln firing, and various heat treatment processes. Due to its compatibility with the 60-2981-1 and Siemens LFL wiring bases, it is a preferred choice for retrofitting legacy flame safeguard systems in schools, hospitals, and industrial plants where improved diagnostics and communication are required.
