EP300S Fireye Programmer

Overview

The Fireye EP300S is a microprocessor-based programmer module designed for use with the Flame-Monitor Burner Management Control System (E100 and E110 chassis). As the central logic component of the system, it provides essential start-up programming, safe-start checks, and continuous flame monitoring. The EP300S is specifically characterized by its extended purge capabilities and high level of field-configurability via integrated dipswitches, allowing it to adapt to a wide variety of industrial and commercial burner requirements. This model typically features a Spanish-language interface for system messaging when used with compatible displays.

Features

• Selectable Operation: Features six side-mounted dipswitches that allow field configuration of recycle/non-recycle modes and purge timing.
• Intelligent Supervision: Provides comprehensive safe-start checks, ensuring the burner system is in a proper state before initiating ignition.
• Flexible Timing: Offers selectable Trial for Ignition (TFI) periods of 5 or 10 seconds.
• Running Interlock Monitoring: Constantly monitors limit, air flow, and fuel pressure switches through the 3-P interlock circuit.
• Communication Ready: Includes an RJ45 connector for interfacing with ED510 alpha-numeric displays or E500 communication interfaces.
• Non-Volatile Memory: Stores burner cycle history and lockout data that remains intact even during power loss.
• Backward Compatibility: Designed to work with older ED500 displays and standard wiring bases.

Applications

The Fireye EP300S is used in commercial and industrial combustion environments to manage the sequencing of burners in boilers, furnaces, and process heaters. It is ideal for applications requiring extended prepurge cycles and provides reliable control for systems using gaseous or liquid fuels. Because it does not include internal modular motor circuitry, it is specifically applied to non-modulating burner systems where simple on/off or high/low control is sufficient. Common industries of use include oil and gas, petrochemical, and power generation.
