Flame Scanner
Flame Scanner is used to detect flame inside combustion chambers, boilers, and furnaces. One of the prevalent dangers in chemical and refining industries is explosion and fire. Mixture of liquid discharges and flammable gases with oxygen in the air will burn. Delay in detecting the dying flame can lead to disastrous consequences like explosion of the chamber, bringing about high financial damages. Therefore flame scanner performance is highly important.
Flame Monitoring System And Its Performance
The sensor unit can trigger an alarm at the time of fire so that related safety process to flammable materials would be increased. Some of flame sensors try to protect peoples’ safety more through turning ignition system off or activating fire fighting system. One of the detection methods of flame is using optical sensors. Optical sensors receive light and produce electrical signals. The more would be intensity of light; the bigger would become output signal range from the sensor.
Considering the aforementioned, it can be concluded that using this type of sensors helps flame detection from far distance. The biggest problem in using optical sensors to detect flame is disruptions resulted from background light as well as behavioral changes of sensor with temperature changes. To prevent such disruptions, best method of flame monitoring is measurement of instant and frequent changes of flame. All industrial flame monitoring systems are required to use this method.
Also, using self-care systems to assure correct performance of these types of systems is a must. Sepanta Electronic Tabarestan Co. is honorable as the first knowledge-based company in Iran to present flame monitoring system for industrial usage with the above mentioned characteristics.

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.
