The Phoenix flame scanners incorporate an internal flame relay with automatically set ON/OFF thresholds, thereby eliminating the need for a remote flame amplifier or flame switch.

Phoenix scanners detect the amplitude of the modulations (the flame “flicker”) that occur within the targeted flame, over a wide frequency. During the scanner setup procedure, the amplitudes of the target flame are automatically stored by the flame scanner, together with optimum ON/OFF criteria. The appropriate sensor gain is automatically selected. Phoenix scanners incorporate full self-diagnostics and electronic self-checking.

✔︎ Fireye Phoenix 85UVF self-checking scanners are used to detect 295 to 340 nanometers wavelength ultra-violet emissions. The Fireye Phoenix 85UVF1A-1QDK3 and 85UVF1A-1CEX-K3 Flame Scanners are derivatives of the standard Phoenix product but utilizing an advanced optical filter. This filter adjusts the optical sensitivity of the detection cell to pick up wavelengths of light from the standard 310 nm range up to 500 nm.

✔︎ Typical Applications: Duct Burners, Industrial Gas Burners, Refinery Applications, Low NOx Burners, Waste Gas Units and Incinerators. The K3 scanner is particularly suited to measure the light emissions from steel plant applications such as burners firing blast furnace gas and coke oven gas. Fireye Phoenix 85IRF self-checking scanners are used to detect 830 to 1100 nanometers wavelength infrared emissions. They are suited for application to duct burners, industrial gas burners, refinery applications ignition systems and Low NOx detection and for continuous or non-continuous burner operation.

✔︎ Typical Applications: Duct Burners, Industrial Oil Burners, Refinery Applications, Waste Oil Units and Incinerators. NOTE: Because the sensors in the Phoenix are solid state devices they can perform well with many different fuels. For example UV is typically used on gaseous fuels but can also be applied to oils and heavy oils. To be 100% sure of correct application a test should be performed.

✔︎ We DO NOT recommend the Phoenix scanner for use on small pilot flames or obstructed sighting.
