ETC 6094 Flame Scanner
The ETC6094 and ETC6095 flame detectors provide reliable UV Flame detection with integrated shutters. These detectors ensure safe, unsupervised boiler operation and feature enhanced sensitivity.
Product specifics
The ETC6094 and ETC6095 flame detectors are sophisticated ultraviolet (UV) flame detection devices designed for seamless integration with the ETC6000 series burner controllers. These detectors are specifically engineered for applications that demand continuous, unsupervised operation of burner or boiler systems, ensuring that combustion processes remain safe and efficient without the need for constant manual supervision.
The ETC6094 and ETC6095 employ advanced UV light detection technology to reliably sense the presence of a flame. These detectors are equipped with an integrated shutter system that periodically interrupts the flame signal to perform “dark tests.” The shutter automatically blocks the flame signal at regular intervals, verifying the integrity of the flame detection system and ensuring that the detectors are functioning as intended.
This self-checking feature is essential for maintaining operational safety, especially in systems where the burner or boiler is operating without direct supervision for extended periods. The regular interruption of the flame signal ensures that any potential faults or anomalies are detected and communicated immediately.
This process significantly enhances the overall safety of the combustion system, as it ensures continuous flame monitoring and rapid fault detection. The ability to perform automatic integrity checks reduces the need for manual intervention, minimizing the risk of undetected issues and improving system reliability.
The ETC6094 and ETC6095 flame detectors are designed to work in conjunction with the ETC6000 series burner controllers. They communicate through a CANBus link, which ensures seamless integration and enables real-time feedback on flame status. This communication system allows the controller to receive continuous updates on the health and integrity of the flame, providing operators with critical information to manage combustion processes efficiently.
One of the key advancements of the ETC6094 and ETC6095 is their enhanced sensitivity to flame detection. This is particularly beneficial in environments where the supply voltage may be lower than the standard 230V. The improved sensitivity ensures reliable flame detection even in low-voltage conditions, making these models ideal for installations in areas where power supply consistency is a concern.
The ETC6094 and ETC6095 offer flexible installation options to accommodate a wide range of burner and boiler configurations. The ETC6094 is designed to be mounted through the side of the burner wind-box using a clamp ring, while the ETC6095 is designed to view the flame in-line with a sight tube mounted at the front of the burner.
These mounting options provide flexibility in installation based on system design, ensuring ease of integration.
The ETC6094 and ETC6095 are built to withstand demanding industrial conditions. With IP65 and NEMA 4 protection ratings, these detectors are resistant to dust, water, and environmental contaminants, ensuring reliable operation in harsh environments.
Both models are CE approved and comply with EN298:2012, confirming compliance with international safety and combustion control standards.
In summary, the ETC6094 and ETC6095 flame detectors provide reliable, safe, and efficient flame detection for continuous, unsupervised burner and boiler operations, with integrated shutter technology, enhanced sensitivity, and full integration with ETC6000 series controllers.
