MEP100P Fireye Programmer

Overview

The Fireye MEP100P is a microprocessor-based programmer module designed for use with the Fireye MicroM modular flame safeguard control system. It provides essential burner sequencing, including automatic ignition and continuous flame monitoring for commercial and industrial heating equipment. The MEP100P is specifically characterized by its relight operation, which attempts to reignite the burner automatically upon flame failure, and a fixed 15-second post-purge period to ensure the combustion chamber is cleared of gases after operation.

Features

• Relight operation functionality that automatically initiates a reignition sequence if a flame failure occurs during the “run” cycle.
• Fixed 10-second Pilot Trial-for-Ignition (PTFI) timing for reliable burner startup.
• Integrated 15-second post-purge period to enhance system safety by clearing the combustion area after a burner cycle.
• Smart diagnostic LED indicators that display the current operating status and provide coded sequences for fault diagnostics during lockout.
• Plug-in design that allows for easy installation and interchangeability within a standard MicroM chassis and wiring base.
• Compatible with various flame detection technologies including flame rods, ultraviolet (UV) scanners, and self-checking UV scanners.
• Optional interface with the ED510 alphanumeric display for enhanced local monitoring and diagnostics.

Applications

The MEP100P programmer is used in commercial and industrial burner management systems firing various fuel types, including natural gas, propane, and light oil. It is ideally suited for process heating, boilers, and heaters where a relight function is required to maintain continuous operation without manual intervention during brief flame interruptions. It is commonly utilized in facilities ranging from power plants to large-scale commercial buildings requiring robust flame safeguard protections.
