SCN-TST-02-03 Flame Scanner Tester
Used to test Fireye Paragon, Phoenix, and InSight Flame Scanners
Reliable Flame Detection Testing — Anywhere, Anytime
The Scanner Tester is a professional‑grade solution for testing Fireye flame detectors and integrated flame scanners without the need for a live burner. By accurately simulating both infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) radiation found in real burner flames, it enables safe, precise verification during commissioning, maintenance, and troubleshooting.
Designed for both field and workshop use, the Scanner Tester combines portability, robust construction, and advanced diagnostic capabilities in a single, easy‑to‑use device.
Key Capabilities
Realistic Flame Simulation
The Scanner Tester reproduces authentic burner flame characteristics, allowing users to:
Simulate IR and UV radiation
Adjust flicker frequencies to match different burner flame behaviors
This ensures flame scanners are tested under conditions that closely mirror actual operation.
Complete System Verification
The device supports thorough testing of flame detection systems by enabling:
Verification of 4–20 mA analog output from integrated flame scanners
Monitoring of flame and fault relay states directly on the tester’s display
Measurement of flame relay switch‑on time and release time
These functions provide fast, accurate confirmation of system performance and reliability.
Flexible Power & Operating Modes
The Scanner Tester offers two operating modes to suit any application:
Battery Operation
Powered by a 9 V block battery
Ideal for mobile, on-site testing
Flame scanner is powered by the external plant supply
Mains Operation
