MEUVS4 Fireye Amplifier

Overview

The Fireye MEUVS4 is a high-performance ultraviolet (UV) self-checking amplifier module designed for use with the Fireye Modular MicroM flame safeguard control system. It serves as a critical interface between the flame scanner and the burner management system, providing continuous flame supervision for industrial and commercial combustion applications. The MEUVS4 is specifically engineered to support self-checking UV scanners, ensuring an added layer of safety by periodically verifying the integrity of the flame detection system.

Features

• UV Self-Check Functionality: Provides enhanced system safety and diagnostic reliability by continuously validating the scanner and amplifier components.
• Plug-in Design: Allows for easy installation and replacement within the Modular MicroM chassis.
• Test Jacks: Features accessible test jacks on the front of the module to permit real-time flame signal measurement (0-10 VDC) during burner operation.
• Modular Compatibility: Works seamlessly with other MicroM modules, including various programmer modules and chassis configurations.
• Flame Detection Versatility: While optimized for self-check scanners, it is part of a series that supports ultraviolet, infrared, and flame rod detection methods.

Specifications

• Model Number: MEUVS4
• Flame Failure Response Time (FFRT): 3 seconds (some sources note 4 seconds maximum).
• Compatible Scanners: Specifically designed for use with Fireye 45UV5-1008 and 45UV5-1009 self-checking scanners.
• Supply Voltage: 120 VAC (102-132V) or 230 VAC (196-253V) depending on the MicroM chassis used.
• Operating Temperature: -40 degrees F to 140 degrees F (-40 degrees C to 60 degrees C).
• Output Signal: 0-10 VDC uniform flame signal via test jacks.
• Agency Approvals: UL Listed, FM Approved, and RoHS compliant.

Applications

The Fireye MEUVS4 is ideally suited for burner management systems in industrial furnaces, commercial boilers, and power generation plants. It is particularly effective in applications requiring continuous burner operation (24 hours or more) where self-checking flame detection is mandatory for safety. It is commonly used in systems monitoring gaseous fuels like natural gas and propane, as well as light oil burners.
