The Spectrum UV Flame Scanner family has been specifically designed to offer reliable flame scanning and discrimination for propane or natural gas-fired, multiple-burner boilers.
A compact design, which employs ultraviolet (UV) tube technology, is also well suited for dual fuel (oil/gas) single burner package boilers.
The UV5 is available in two models:
- electronic self-test
- mechanical shutter test
Both models use the same electronic amplifier. The UV5 Scanner Head responds to electro-magnetic radiation in the ultraviolet spectrum and produces a series of pulses proportional to flame intensity. The amplifier contains the decoding electronics, which converts the variable frequency to a voltage level. This is translated into a flame level, which is presented on a bar graph located on the face of the module. When that level rises above a set point, the flame contact is energized.
The benefits of the UV scanner system are:
- compact design
- stand-alone UV flame detectors
- suitable for gas-fired applications and gas/oil-fired package boilers
