Optical system description 

Light  is  emitted  from  the  flame  and  collected  by  a  plano-convex  lens  mounted  on  the  inner 
chimney. The wavelength of light reaching the photo-detector is determined by up to 5 different 
interference filters mounted in a wheel. The filter in the light path is selected by the front panel 
control and is indicated by this control. Na (589nm) and K (766nm) filters are fitted as standard 
and  positions  1,  2  and  3  can  be  fitted  with  Ca  (620nm),  Ba  (520nm)  and  Li  (670nm)  filters  to 
order. 
 
The  filters  are  held  in  the  wheel  by  circlips.  Should  replacements  or  alternatives  need  to  be 
fitted,  care  must  be  taken  to  prevent  fingerprints  getting  onto  the  optical  surfaces.  If  this  does 
happen  a  small  amount  of  ethanol  on  a  very  soft,  lint-free  cloth  may  be  used  to  gently  wipe 
away deposits. 
 
Filtered light from the flame falls on the PIN diode mounted on a small PCB on fixing brackets 
that allow critical adjustment so that the lens on the diode can be set to an optimum position in 
the light path. The electrical signal from the diode is taken via a 3-pin connector and a screened 
cable to the main PCB.

Power supply description 

Refer to 

Figures 8.4.1

 and 

8.4.2

 
The  mains  AC  supply  is  fed  in  via  the  rear  panel  socket/filter  unit  to  a  3A  anti-surge  fuse  (6A 
anti-surge fuse when operating on 115V). This fuse protects any equipment such as a recorder 
or compressor plugged into the 

POWER OUT

 socket on the rear panel. 

 
The AC line is taken via a 250mA fuse, for protecting the internal circuitry, to the 

power

 switch 

on the front panel. The AC neutral is taken to the other pole of the 

power

 switch. The earth from 

the mains supply is taken directly to the chassis. 
 
From  the 

power

  switch  the  AC  line  is  taken  to  a  two-position 

VOLTAGE  SELECTOR

  switch 

mounted  on  the  rear  panel  and  then  onto  the  transformer  primary  winding;  the  other  side  of 
which is connected to the neutral from the 

power

 switch. The transformer primary is auto wound 

to  provide  a  step  up  function  to  supply  240V  for  the  igniter  unit  when  a  115V  supply  is 
connected. 
 
The two 12V secondary windings are joined with a centre tap which forms the 0V rail; they are 
full  wave  rectified  to  give  a  +12V  and  -12V  supply  with  respect  to  the  centre  tap.  The 
unreg12V is fed to the 7805 1 amp regulator to give the +5V rail. The unregulated -12V 
is fed to the 79L05 100mA regulator to give the -5V rail. 
 
The unreg12V is used to automatically operate the fuel solenoid via the  relay, but it is 
also fed to one pole of the ignition switch for manual operation. The other pole is fed with 240V 
which is then switched to the ignition unit, such that when the ignition switch is depressed, the 
fuel  solenoid  is  opened  and  the  ignition  unit  activated  to  generate  a  series  of  high  voltage 
pulses (approx. 2 per second) which are discharged in the form of a spark between the ignition 
electrode  and burner, which is  at  earth  potential. Hence  the fuel  passing through the  solenoid 
into the mixing chamber and out through the burner will be ignited by the series of sparks, whilst 
the solenoid is manually held open. 
 
The thermo-electric  potential  developed  by  the thermocouple  mounted on the  top, back of the 
chimney is fed into the inverting input of the 741 (IC1). When this level becomes greater (due to 
flame temperature) than the level set by RV8 on the non-inverting input to the 741 (IC1) then the 
output rapidly switches from +4.5V approx. to -3.0V approx. turning off transistor TR2 which, in 
turn,  switches  transistor  TR1  on,  energising  the  relay  coil.  The  normally  open  contacts  close 
holding the +12V supply on the solenoid. If the flame should be extinguished the thermocouple 
cools down and the voltage on the inverting input IC1 decreases. When the level falls below that 
set by RV8 on the non-inverting input to IC1 the output goes back to +4.5V approx., turning on
