EP165 Fireye Programmer

Overview

The Fireye EP165 is a microprocessor-based programmer module designed for use with the FLAME-MONITOR Burner Management Control System (E100 and E110 chassis). It serves as the central control unit for industrial burner applications, providing essential sequencing, timing, and safety monitoring from startup through shutdown. The EP165 is specifically engineered for non-recycle operation and includes a pilot stabilization period to ensure safe combustion cycles.

Features

• Microprocessor-based design for precise timing and reliable sequencing.
• Selectable purge timing (minimum 30 seconds) and configurable operational characteristics via six side-mounted dipswitches.
• Pilot stabilization feature where terminal 6 is energized for 5 seconds before energizing terminal 7.
• Comprehensive safety checks including safe-start check, proof of low fire position, and fuel valve end switch monitoring.
• Running interlock circuit that continuously monitors limit, air flow, and fuel pressure switches.
• Smart diagnostic LEDs and compatibility with the ED510 alpha-numeric display for system status and lockout history.
• Integrated RJ45 and RJ12 connectors for display interface and Modbus communications.

Applications

The EP165 programmer module is ideal for industrial and commercial burner systems requiring dependable flame supervision and customizable sequencing. It is commonly used in boilers, process heaters, furnaces, and other large-scale combustion equipment. It is designed for applications where precise control over pre-purge and ignition timing is critical for operational safety and equipment protection.
