YB230IR Fireye Chassis

Overview

The Fireye YB230IR is a 230 VAC chassis designed for the BurnerLogix flame safeguard system, featuring an integrated infrared (IR) auto-check amplifier. This microprocessor-based control provides automatic ignition and continuous flame monitoring for oil, gas, and combination fuel burners. It utilizes sophisticated algorithms to learn and adapt to specific fuel characteristics, dynamically setting internal thresholds to optimize detection accuracy. The adaptive IR system ensures safety by initiating a swift shutdown if firing conditions deviate from safe parameters.

Features

• Infrared (IR) auto-check sensing for continuous flame verification and enhanced reliability.
• Keypad-selectable parameters to streamline configuration and reduce spare parts inventory.
• Adaptive internal thresholds that adjust to unique fuel characteristics and operating conditions.
• ‘Revert to pilot’ functionality to significantly enhance burner turndown capability.
• Non-volatile memory that retains history and system position during power interruptions.
• Real-time status updates and diagnostics via smart LEDs and vacuum fluorescent or LCD displays.
• RS485 Modbus communications for efficient coordination within combustion systems.
• Valve proving and low gas pressure functionality for robust operational integrity.
• Remote reset capability and programmable baud rates for DCS compatibility.
