MEC120 Fireye Chassis

Overview

The Fireye MEC120 is a compact, microprocessor-based modular burner management chassis designed for the MicroM Series Flame Safeguard Control. It provides the foundational platform for automatic ignition sequencing and continuous flame monitoring for commercial and industrial heating and process equipment. Engineered for versatility, it is backward compatible with legacy Fireye TFM, UVM, and M-Series II controls, often allowing for direct interchangeability when paired with appropriate modules.

Features

• Microprocessor-based design for precise timing and dependable operation.
• Modular architecture allowing for interchangeable plug-in programmer and amplifier modules.
• Smart diagnostic LEDs for real-time system status and troubleshooting.
• Backward compatibility with existing Fireye infrastructure to simplify system upgrades.
• Accessible manual reset button for clearing lockouts following ignition failures.
• Supports optional alpha-numeric display (ED510) and serial communications via Modbus or E500 interface.
