Flame Detection System, Corresponding Table

Flame Detection System Corresponding table is a guidance to choose the best SET product. If you are currently utilizing various versions of Flame scanners from different brands worldwide and are considering a switch to our products, we have prepared a comprehensive replacement guide table. This guide will assist you in easily identifying the optimal replacement for your existing brands.

Applications and Functions 

• Power stations
• Chemical industries
• Refineries
• Cement factories
• Steam generators
• Waste incinerators
• Heating system for plants

The detection unit  is installed on Heaters or Boilers for monitoring Burning. Flame Rod and Flame Scanner both used for Flame Detection. But Flame Rod is used on Pilots while Flame Scanner are installed on main Burner for monitoring main Burning in furnaces. Detection of flame  is very important in every industry. As Flame has certain characteristics that we are use for detecting device, coupled with a suitable flame control mechanism produces a signal.

a)      Heat Production

b)      Expansion of gases

c)      Production of by-product of combustion

d)      Emission of light (IR or UV)

e)      Ionization around the flame

In Refineries there are three types of Devices that are used for monitorings Combustion in Heater furnances.

a)      Oxygen Analyser

b)      Flame Rod

c)      Flame Scanner

There are two type of Flame Detection systems:

a)      IR

b)      UV

Working Principles:

UV Flame Scanners Sense Ultraviolet Radiation that are produced by Flame. The wave length of ultraviolet Radiation is less than 300 nm. A photo–tube are used in UV detector. The photo–tube is sensitive for Light. UV Radiation hit Photocathode and electrons Release that move towad Anode. And output signal is Generated in Form of Pulse and sent to Detector.
