MBPF-100S Fireye Flame Sensor Module

Overview

The Fireye MBPF-100S is a single-channel flame sensor module designed for industrial and commercial burner management systems. Operating at 120 VAC, it provides both visual indication via LEDs and electrical relay outputs to signal the presence of a flame in a combustion chamber. A standout feature of the MBPF-100S is its versatile detection capability, allowing it to interface with ultraviolet (UV) scanners, self-checking UV scanners, or flame rods, and it can even monitor UV and flame rod signals simultaneously.

Features

• Flexible Detection: Supports UV scanners, self-check UV scanners, and flame rods independently or simultaneously.
• Visual Diagnostics: Includes “Flame ON” and “Flame Fail” LEDs for immediate status monitoring.
• Signal Testing: Features analog output test points that permit direct reading of the flame signal with a microammeter.
• Rugged Design: Built for industrial environments and designed for mounting on a standard 11-pin relay base such as the Fireye 60-2726.
• Fail-Safe Performance: Compatible with self-checking UV scanners to ensure continuous monitoring integrity.
• Approvals: UL recognized and FM approved for safety and reliability.

Specifications

• Supply Voltage: 120 VAC (+10%, -15%), 50/60 Hz.
• Power Consumption: Approximately 0.1 Amp (25 VA).
• Flame Failure Response Time (FFRT): 3 seconds (±0.5 seconds).
• Pilot Trial for Ignition (PTFI): Selectable – 5, 10, or 15 seconds.
• Flame Relay Output: SPDT rated for 2 Amp Resistive @ 240 VAC or 3 Amp @ 24 VDC.
• Operating Temperature: -40°F to 140°F (-40°C to 60°C).
• Compatibility: Works with UV7A, UV7R4, and UV7SC scanners.
• Mounting: Panel surface or DIN-rail mounting using an 11-pin base.

Applications

The MBPF-100S is primarily used in Fireye MB Series Multi-Burner Control Systems, which can monitor up to 20 individual burners sharing a common fuel train. It is ideally suited for ovens, furnaces, and other multi-burner industrial applications where reliable flame safeguard protection is critical. The module can function as a stand-alone flame switch or as a component within a larger burner management system to prevent hazardous fuel accumulation by ensuring valves are closed if a flame is not detected.
