Fireye UV8A Scanner
Ensure reliable combustion monitoring with the Fireye UV8A Scanner, a 90-degree right-angle ultraviolet flame scanner designed for tight integration in commercial and industrial burner assemblies. This non-self-checking miniature scanner utilizes a quartz UV tube and gas-ionization technology to detect radiation from gas and light oil flames, including No. 2 oil. Engineered for seamless HVACR burner management, the UV8A features a 1/2" NPT mounting collar and 6-foot unshielded lead wires (72 inches), providing the necessary reach for standard control cabinet terminations. It is fully compatible with Fireye M-Series, MicroM, Flame-Monitor, and BurnerLogix systems. Designed to operate in environments from -40??F to 200??F, this compact flame safeguard component provides a stable flame signal by converting UV radiation into current pulses for the amplifier. For optimal performance in high-pressure applications, pair this scanner with a Fireye 60-1290 quartz lens union to maintain a clear line of sight while protecting the sensing tube from combustion byproducts.
Key Benefits- Space-Saving Geometry: The 90-degree head allows for installation in narrow burner housings where straight-view scanners cannot fit.
- Broad System Compatibility: Works with Fireye Flame-Monitor, BurnerLogix, Nexus, and MicroM controls without requiring additional adapters.
- Industrial-Grade Sensing: High-sensitivity quartz tube detects UV radiation from standard fuel gases and light oils with precision.
- Rugged Construction: Built to withstand ambient temperatures up to 200??F (94??C) commonly found in boiler flame monitoring environments.
- Secure Mounting: Features a standard 1/2" NPT connector for rigid attachment to the burner sight pipe.
Is the Fireye UV8A suitable for continuous process burners?
The UV8A is a non-self-checking scanner. For systems requiring continuous 24-hour operation without a burner recycle, a self-checking model like the UV7SC is typically required by code.
What is the maximum wire run for this scanner?
While provided with 6-foot leads, these can be extended using shielded cable to prevent electrical noise from causing false flame signals. Always keep scanner leads separate from high-voltage ignition wires.
Can I use the UV8A with heavy #6 fuel oil?
UV scanners can be used with heavy oils, but the unburned fuel shroud often masks UV radiation. For heavy oil applications, infrared (IR) detection is often preferred to avoid nuisance trips.
