Working Principle:
The R7247C1001 detects ultraviolet radiation emitted during the combustion of carbon-containing fuels. When a flame is present, it emits UV radiation that is detected by the sensor’s UV-sensitive element. The solid-state electronics process this signal and communicate the flame status to the connected burner controller. The mechanical shutter periodically interrupts the UV path to perform dynamic self-testing, ensuring the sensor is functioning correctly and can reliably detect flame presence or absence. This continuous monitoring ensures safe burner operation by confirming flame presence during operation and detecting flame failure promptly.
Installation Requirements:
- Install in accordance with Honeywell burner controller specifications
- Position the UV sensor to have a clear view of the flame
- Ensure proper alignment with the combustion zone
- Connect to compatible Honeywell flame amplifier and burner controller
- Follow all wiring diagrams and connection specifications
- Ensure proper grounding
- Install in appropriate environmental conditions
- For hazardous area installations, use ATEX or UL certified models as required
Precautions for Use:
- Installation should be performed by qualified technicians
- Ensure the sensor is properly aligned with the flame
- Regularly verify proper operation through system diagnostics
- Keep the UV sensor window clean and free from obstruction
- Follow manufacturer guidelines for maintenance and testing
- Ensure compatibility with the connected burner controller
- For hazardous area applications, verify appropriate certification
- Perform regular self-test verification
- Replace if damaged or if performance degrades
