SECTION 2 INSTALLATION NOTES
The detector should be mounted so that the primary combustion zone is within the detector’s line of sight.
The primary combustion zone from a flame emits the majority of the frequency spectrum used by the
detector to determine the presence or absence of the flame. The location and procedure listed below are
general guidelines for the location of the detector if Forney’s Burner Redline Review service is not
utilized.
1. The best results are obtained when the detector is aimed so that the detector’s line of sight intersects
the burner center at a slight angle (e.g. 5 degrees) and sees a maximum of the primary combustion
zone as shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3 - Line of Sight Installation
2. The detector should have an unrestricted view of the flame as far as possible. Physical obstructions
such as air register blades, spin vanes, or other hardware should not fall within the detector’s line of
sight as shown in Figure 4.
