Description
This is an infrared flame sensor designed for use on oil and industrial burners. It detects flame by means of a photocell responsive to infrared radiation. The sensing element converts the flame's infrared emission into a signal for the burner control system. This item corresponds to Honeywell model IRD1010.1 and catalogue SKU 16503.
Further details
| Application | automatic flame presence monitoring in burners and boilers |
|---|---|
| Maintenance | keep sensor window clean; soot or oil film reduces sensitivity |
| Material | high-quality materials resistant to high temperatures and aggressive environments |
| Mounting | direct line of sight into the combustion zone |
| Response characteristic | high sensitivity; fast and accurate detection |
Choosing and fitting
Flame sensors of this type are selected by detection principle (infrared, ultraviolet or ionisation), spectral response, response time, cable length, connector type and mounting sleeve dimensions. Before ordering a replacement, verify the mounting arrangement and connector style on the existing installation. The sensor must have a direct line of sight to the combustion zone and the optical window must be clean; soot or oil film will reduce sensitivity.
Signs of failure
Typical failures of this type of sensor include a contaminated optical window, an aged photocell that produces too weak a signal, or a broken sheath that lets moisture in. When the signal weakens, the burner control may enter lockout intermittently, which is often misdiagnosed as a control fault. Check the sensor window for contamination and test the photocell output.
