The flame detectors are used for the supervision of gas flames, yellow- or blue-burning oil flames and for ignition spark proving. With this type of flame supervision, the UV radiation emitted by gas or oil flames is used to generate the flame signal. The radiation detector consists of a UV-sensitive cell with 2 electrodes, which ignite when illuminated with radiation in the 190...270 nm range of the spectrum, thereby triggering a current in the flame detector circuit. The UV cell does not respond to glowing firebrick in the combustion chamber, daylight or light from the boiler room illumination.
Die-cast aluminium housing with a 1 in. mounting coupling (D) and a connection facility for cooling air. The housing of this detector has a bayonet fitting which allows it to be secured either directly to the mounting coupling or to the glass holder AGG06. The mounting coupling can be screwed to a viewing tube or to the ball head AGG07. The Pg cable gland can be removed and replaced, if some other detector cable shall be used. |
