MEUVS1 Fireye Amplifier

Overview

The Fireye MEUVS1 is a high-performance ultraviolet (UV) self-check amplifier module designed for use with the Fireye Modular MicroM flame safeguard control system. This plug-in module provides reliable flame scanning capabilities and is specifically engineered to interface with self-checking UV scanners. It ensures combustion safety by monitoring the presence of a flame and initiating a safety shutdown upon detecting a flame failure.

Features

• Self-check technology designed for continuous burner operation by periodically verifying the scanner and amplifier’s integrity.
• Plug-in design allows for easy installation and replacement within the Modular MicroM chassis.
• Integrated test jacks permit real-time flame signal measurement (0-10 VDC) during burner operation.
• Compatible with a wide range of industrial burner management systems.
• Robust construction suitable for demanding industrial and commercial environments.

Specifications

• Model Number: MEUVS1
• Amplifier Type: Ultraviolet (UV) Self-Check
• Flame Failure Response Time (FFRT): 3.0 seconds (Note: Some documentation lists 0.8 seconds; 3.0 seconds is standard for MEUVS1 UV self-check applications).
• Compatible Scanners: Fireye 45UV5-1008 and 45UV5-1009.
• Compatible Chassis: Fireye Modular MicroM (MEC120, MEC230).
• Flame Signal Output: 0-10 VDC via test jacks.
• Operating Temperature: -40 degree F to 140 degree F (-40 degree C to 60 degree C).

Applications

The MEUVS1 amplifier is used in industrial and commercial burner management systems, including industrial boilers, furnaces, and power generation plants. It is ideal for applications requiring continuous burner operation where self-checking flame detection is mandatory for safety. It is typically employed in systems using gaseous or light oil fuels where UV radiation is the primary indicator of a stable flame.
