Description
Fireye 85UVF1-1CEX
Technical Specifications:
- Brand: Fireye
- Model: 85UVF1-1CEX
- Product Type: Explosion-Proof UV Flame Scanner
- Certification: CEX (Explosion-Proof / Hazardous Location Rated)
Functional Features:
- Hazardous Area Compliance: Certified for use in explosive atmospheres containing flammable gases or dusts.
- Rapid Flame Detection: Provides millisecond response to flame presence or loss for immediate safety shutdown.
- False Flame Rejection: Advanced optical filtering ignores background radiation from hot refractory and ambient light.
- Self-Monitoring Circuitry: Continuously verifies the integrity of the optical path and internal electronics.
Application Scenarios:
Widely used in petrochemical plants, oil refineries, gas processing facilities, and industrial boilers located in hazardous areas.
Performance Parameters:
- Response Time: Fast flame-on and flame-loss detection to meet stringent safety codes.
- Sensitivity: Calibrated to detect weak pilot flames reliably.
Material Composition:
Features a heavy-duty, explosion-proof metal housing, specialized UV-transparent lens, and industrial-grade sensing elements.
Structural Characteristics:
Rugged cylindrical design with explosion-proof threaded or flanged mounting. Includes sealed electrical connections to prevent gas ingress.
Working Principle:
The UV sensor detects ultraviolet radiation emitted by the flame. The internal amplifier processes this signal and outputs a safe, isolated signal to the burner management system.
Installation Requirements:
Mount with a clear view of the flame. Ensure all explosion-proof seals and gaskets are intact. Route cables through approved conduit.
Usage Precautions:
Never open the scanner housing in a hazardous area. Clean the lens regularly with approved, non-abrasive materials. Verify certification matches the specific hazardous area classification.
