EDC2 Fireye Amplifier

Overview

The Fireye EDC2 is an automatic flame amplifier module designed for use within the Fireye Flame-Monitor and MicroM systems. It serves as a direct-coupled interface that allows for the monitoring of both pilot and main flames by automatically switching between two scanners at the appropriate time during the burner sequence. This module is essential for applications requiring multi-scanner flame safeguard protection to ensure safe burner operation.

Features

• Dual Scanner Support: Interfaces with two scanners to independently monitor pilot and main flames.
• Automatic Switching: Transitions between scanners automatically at the appropriate points in the combustion cycle.
• System Integration: Designed for use with Fireye EP178 and EP378 programmers.
• Compatibility: Works with InSight, Phoenix, and 85UVF4-1WR/85IRF4-1WR series flame scanners.
• Status Indication: Provides constant flame signal read-out when used with a compatible display module.

Specifications

• Model Number: EDC2
• Type: Direct Coupled Flame Amplifier
• Supply Voltage: 120 VAC (102 min, 132 max), 50/60 Hz
• Compatible Programmers: EP178, EP378
• Compatible Scanners: InSight (with 59-497-020WR cable), Phoenix, 85UVF4-1WR, 85IRF4-1WR, 45RM2

Applications

The Fireye EDC2 is primarily used in commercial and industrial burner management systems where separate monitoring of the pilot and main flames is required. It is ideally suited for sectors such as power generation, oil and gas, and large-scale HVAC installations. It is commonly applied in complex burner configurations where a single scanner cannot adequately view both the pilot and main flame stages.
