Fireye UV2 Scanner
The Fireye UV2 Flame Scanner is a miniature, non-self-checking ultraviolet sensor engineered for precise flame monitoring in commercial and industrial combustion systems. This ultraviolet flame scanner utilizes a quartz UV tube to detect radiation in the 190 to 270 nanometer range, making it ideal for gas and light oil burners where flame safeguard controls require a reliable signal to maintain the fuel valve circuit. Featuring a 3/8" NPT connection and 36-inch (3-foot) shielded flexible leads, the UV2 provides a compact footprint for tight mounting applications compared to standard 1/2" NPT models. It is fully compatible with Fireye BurnerLogix, Flame-Monitor, MicroM, and M-Series II controls. Designed to withstand ambient temperatures from -40??F to 200??F, this UV flame detector ensures continuous operation in demanding boiler rooms while maintaining high signal sensitivity for both pilot and main flame verification.
Key Benefits for Contractors:
- Broad Compatibility: Seamlessly integrates with Fireye Flame-Monitor, MicroM, BurnerLogix, and Nexus systems for streamlined replacements.
- Compact Hardware: The 3/8" NPT mounting collar allows for installation in restrictive sight pipes where standard scanners cannot fit.
- Industrial Durability: Rugged design rated for up to 200??F (94??C) ambient temperature, suitable for heavy-duty industrial burner environments.
- Signal Integrity: Includes 3-foot shielded cable to minimize electrical interference and prevent false flame signals in high-voltage environments.
- Reliable Sensing: Optimized for ultraviolet flame detection in gas and No. 2 oil applications, ensuring rapid response to flame failure.
Common Questions:
Can the Fireye UV2 be used on continuous-run burners?
The UV2 is a non-self-checking scanner. Per industry safety standards, it should be used on burners that cycle at least once every 24 hours (some codes require once every 12 hours) to allow the system to verify the sensor's integrity during startup. For continuous processes, consider the 45UV5 self-check series.
What is the difference between the UV1A and the UV2?
While functionally similar, the primary difference is the mounting size. The Fireye UV2 features a 3/8" NPT thread, whereas the UV1A uses a standard 1/2" NPT connection. Always verify your sight pipe diameter before ordering.
How should the scanner be positioned for the best signal?
The scanner should have an unobstructed view of the first third of the flame (the blue zone in gas flames). Ensure the sensor does not "see" the ignition spark to avoid false flame-on signals during the trial for ignition period.
