6 Operation of the flame scanner
For the operation of the flame scanner, please observe
the separate operating instructions of the flame amplifier.
The flame scanner is scheduled for the operation with a
fibre optic cable. Observe separate operating instruction
of the fibre optic cable.
The response of the flame scanner depends on the
burner configuration as well as on the air flow and the
spectral characteristic (wave length).
6.1 Test of the flame scanner
Please also refer to the separate operating instructions of
the flame amplifier !
In order to ensure correct operation, the flame scanners
as well as flame amplifiers of all applications have to be
tested several times by starting and stopping the burner
several times. Carry out this test whilst several neighbour-
ing burners are started and stopped and different boiler
outputs are used. This is an indispensable pre-requisite
for a safe and correct operation of the device !
