DESCRIPTION

The 501 EFD automatic direct burner

ignition (DBI) unit has been designed for

atmospheric and fan assisted burners

which require non volatile lock-out.

This SIT Flame Failure Device is a solid

state controller based on the well known

and proven rectification effect of flame

ionization.

A suitable design and a special compo-

nents selection has allowed SIT to obtain

a wide temperature range from -20 to +

80 °C.

Applications

The 501 EFD provides automatic ignition

control with non volatile lock-out for

intermittent operation in accordance

with EN 298 for:

- Atmospheric burners

- Fan-assisted boilers,

including dynamic air check
