Compact flame monitor
June 2011
Sensors & Transducers
Durag’s D-LX 100 compact flame monitor meets current European flame monitoring standards and is designed for continuous or intermittent operation. The compact design integrates the flame scanner and amplifier into a compact housing to reduce the overall cost and simplify installation. Additional costs normally required for mounting the control electronics separately are no longer applicable.
The D-LX 100 has been developed to monitor flames in single burner systems, the integrated relay output being used to interface with the fuel control valve. Applications for the D-LX 100 range from small heating plants to process combustion systems.
After start-up, the system performs a self-test, repeated continuously during operation to ensure proper and safe functionality. Flame monitoring is not influenced by ambient light and the flame recognition threshold can be adjusted in the field using a manual switch. Flame failure response time can be set to 1, 3 or 5 seconds. The flame intensity signal is available as an analogue output, with status LEDs provided to assist operator fault diagnosis.
A rugged IP67 metal case and adaptability to all significant burner types and fuels ensures the D-LX 100 is suitable for use in power stations, refineries, waste incinerators, steam generators, cement plants and similar applications.
