BASIC REQUIREMENTS FOR ULTRAVIOLET
DETECTOR INSTALLATIONS
All flames emit ultraviolet radiation, invisible to
human eye but detected by the UV sensing tube. There are
two important factors in UV detector installation:
1. The detector must have a line-of-sight view of the
flame.
‘lbe
detector must not be exposed to other sources of
2. ultraviolet radiation, the most common being ignition spark. Other sources are listed in the next section.
Because it is necessary for the detector to actually see the flame, it is desirable to locate the detector as closeto the flame as physical arrangement and temperature restrictions permit.
Sighting requirements for different types of flame super­vision are:
1. Pilot flame only---Sighting must be along the axis of
the
pilot flame. The smallest pilot flame that can be sighted must be capable of igniting Turndown Test, page 9).
2.
Main flame only-Sighting must be at
part of the flame for all
3. Pilotandmainflame-Sightingmustbeattbejunction
of both flames.
OTHER RADIATION SOURCES SENSED BY UV DETECTOR
Examples of radiation sources (other than flame) that
could actuate the detection system are:
Ultraviolet Sources:
Hot refractory above 2800” F
Spark:
l
ignition transformers.
l welding arcs. l lightning.
Gas lasers.

installation. A black iron pipe is recommended. Do
not use
a stainless steel or galvanized pipe because its internal surface blackens with use as deposits from the combustion chamber settle on it. Initially, its shiny internal surface reflects ultra­violet radiation, which could result in a satisfactory flame signal, even though the pipe may be improperly located. As it blackens, less ultraviolet radiation is reflected
and
the flame
signal may become marginal.
Under optimum sighting conditions, the

Flame Detectors can detect most common gas and oil combustion flames at a distance of six feet. The critical factors in determining the flame-detector distance separation
are the optimized flame signal (current or voltage) and the flame detector temperature. Other factors may be influential and are associated with the specific installation. For mini­mum flame signals, see Table 1 and for ambient operating tempemtures, refer to Specifications, page 2.

SIGHT PIPE VENTILATION
It may be necessary to ventilate the sight pipe to cool the flame detector or to clear the sight pipe of UV radiation absorbing substances such as smoke, excessive moisture or, in some instances, unburned fuel.
For a negative pressure combustion chamber, drilling a few holes in the section of the sight pipe outside of the combustion chamber will allow flow through the sight pipe into the chamber. A perforated
pipe nipple between the sight pipe and the detector can also be used (see Fig. 5).

For a flame that is difficult to sight, using two flame detectors connected in parallel will reduce the occurrence of nuisanceshutdowns. Ifonlyoneoftheparalleldetectorsloses the flame signal, the other will continue to indicate the presence of the flame and keep the burner in operation.
When the flame detectors are connected in parallel, the low level background signals are additive. Therefore, no

1.
Check for proper line voltage. Make sure the master switch is closed, connections are correct, and power supply is the correct voltage and frequency.
2. Check the detector wiring for defects, including: incorrect connections. wiring type or size of wire. deteriorated wire. open circuits. short circuits. leakage paths caused by moisture, soot, or dirt.

Clean the inside of the sight pipe (if one is used) before
reinstalling the detector.

If the flame signal continues to be too low, replace the
plug-in amplifier (if the control has one).

If you still cannot obtain a proper flame signal, replace flame detector tube
