MB-600PF Fireye Flame Sensor Module

Overview

The Fireye MB-600PF is a specialized flame sensor module designed for use with the MB-600S multi-burner monitoring system. It provides critical flame supervision by processing signals from optical ultraviolet (UV) scanners or flame rods to detect the presence of a flame in a combustion chamber. This plug-in module is engineered for industrial process markets, such as ovens and furnaces, where multiple burners are connected to a common fuel train. It features integrated screw tabs for secure mounting and includes visual LED indicators to provide real-time status of flame conditions.

Features

• Versatile Sensing: Compatible with standard UV scanners, self-checking UV scanners, and flame rods, or can use both UV and flame rod sensors simultaneously.
• Rapid Response: Features a standard 3-second flame failure response time (FFRT) to ensure safety in the event of flame loss.
• Multi-Burner Integration: Specifically designed to plug into the MB-600S chassis, supporting configurations of up to 20 burners with expansion modules.
• Visual Diagnostics: Equipped with “Flame On” and “Flame Fail” LEDs for immediate local diagnostics and monitoring.
• Secure Installation: Built-in mounting ears (screw tabs) facilitate easy and stable installation onto the control system.
• Industrial Certification: UL recognized (US and Canada) and FM approved for use in commercial and industrial burner management systems.

Applications

The Fireye MB-600PF is primarily used in industrial and commercial burner management systems that require multi-burner monitoring. It is an essential component for furnaces, ovens, and other process heating equipment where up to 20 individual burners must be monitored independently. The module is ideally suited for applications utilizing gas, oil, or combination gas/oil burners, providing the necessary flame supervision to maintain system safety and operational integrity.
