With the increase in demand for effective, interactive and non-intrusive systems, Net Safety has released
its HART for Flame product providing HART communication with distinct flame detectors. This involves
HART Communication with the Phoenix Triple IR, UV/IR and UV Flame Detectors along with the
Hydrogen Flame Detection line of UV and UV/IR Flame Detectors.
The introduction of HART Communication with flam e detecto rs allows convenient access to the Flame
Detector’s features and provides easy on the spot monitoring. This is important for effective and reliable
maintenance. Access to the HART menu structure and functions of the flame detector is gained by using
the HART Communicator. This may also be done using and any other HART communication devices that
are compatible with the enhanced device descript ion language (EDDL) of Net Safety’s Flame Detectors.
Product components:
This HART for Flame product has two component products; a flame detector with Analog /AnalogDigital output alongside a HART Communication Output inter fa ce . Th is HART Outpu t ci rcuitry is
enclosed in Net Safety’s Explosion Proof Multipurpose Junction Box and allows users to choose AnalogHart or Analog-Hart with Relays outputs. The HART for Flame product is available in Aluminum and
Stainless Steel.
Choice of flame detector:
The model flame detector used with the HART Output interface will depend on users’ choice and nature
of the application. In specific cases users may want to detect hydrogen based fi re s in which case the
UV/IRS-H2-A/AR or the UVS-H2-A/AR flame detector based HART for Flame product would be
suitable. In other cases users may want to use either the IR3S-A/AD, UV/IRS-A/AR or the UVS-A/AR
flame detector based HART for Flame product to detect Hy drocarbon based fires. Refer to available
models offered below.
Available Model HART for Flame Product (this includes HART Flame Junction Box interface):
UV/IRS-AH/AHR, UVS-AH/AHR, UV/IRS-H2-AH/AHR, UVS-H2-AH/AHR
ATEX models: UV/IRS-AH-X/AHR-X, UVS-AH-X/AHR-X, UV/IRS-H2-AH-X/AHR, UVS-H2-AHX/AHR-X
Both CSA/FM and ATEX models are available in Aluminum and Stainless Steel.
Available Model HART Flame Junction Box interface:
After choosing the type of flame detector based on the HART for Flame product, the system should be
configured. This is done via DIP Switch 2 (SW2) located on the HART Flame Junction Box PCB. See
Table 1 when configuring the system.
Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Check components against the enclosed packing
list and inspect all components for obvious damage such as broken or loose parts. If you find any
components missing or damaged, notify the representative or Net Safety Monitoring immediately.
1.3 Mounting
The HART Flame Junction Box has three ¾ inch-14 NPT conduit entries. The flame detector will be
connected to one of these entries. Connection of conduit and cable glands to remaining conduit entries
should be done so by use of appropriate tools. A 6mm Hex Key is required for installing or removing
conduit entry plugs. The junction box has mounting holes for installing directly on a wall or to a pole as
desired. The junction box is supplied with one ATEX stopping plug.
1.4 Installation Considerations
• Point flame detector toward where the flame is expected.
• Ensure an unobstructed view of the area to be monitored.
• Employ more than one flame detector and HART Flame Junction Box to ensure the hazard is fully
covered.
• Mount the flame detector and HART Flame Junction Box a few feet (about 1 metre) below the ceiling
so the flame detector can respond before being blocked by smoke accumulation at the ceiling.
• If dense smoke is likely to accumulate prior to flame (as in an ele ctric al fire ), supp lem ent flame
detector(s) with other protection such as Net Safety Monitoring Airborne Particle Monitor.
• The flame detector should be accessible for cleaning the windowand reflector surfaces.
• Tilt the flame detector downward a minimum of 10 to 20
could obscure the detector’s viewing window.
• Securely mount the flame detector and HART Flame Junction Box so as to reduce vibration as much
as possible.
• When located outside, the flame detector’s sensitivity can be reduced by heavy fog, rain and/or ice.
• Consider shortening the time delay settings when smoke is expected to accumulate before or during a
fire. See relevant manual.
• Reduce sensitivity setting if false alarms, related to surrounding activities, occur.
• When installed near or on water (such as an off shore platform), be sure to take into account the low
horizon level when tilting detector downward.
For more on installation considerations on flame detectors refer to specific flame detector manual.

1.5 Wiring
Warning Wiring must comply with all applicable regulations relating to the installation of
electrical equipment in a hazardous area and is the responsibility of the installer. Proper shielding and
grounding procedures, for the specific area must be followed. Consult local electrical code and /or
qualified personnel before w iring .
Warning Do not open the HART Flame Junction Box or flame detector in a classified area (Do
not open when an explosive atmosphere may be present). The area should be de-classified prior to
opening.
WarningTo fully avoid any environmental exposure (water ingress), the use of seals is
recommended, especially for installations that use high-pressure or steam cleaning devices in proximity to
the HART Flame Junction Box and flame detector.
It is recommended that explosion-proof drains and conduit breathers be used. Changes in temperature and
barometric pressure can cause 'breathing' which allows moist air to enter conduit. Joints are seldom
enough to prevent 'breathing'.
Consult qualified personnel on sealing requirements relating to equipment, application and local
regulations.
1.7 HART for Flame Dimensional Drawing

Note: CSA/FM model shown
ATEX model has an ATEX locking collar
* M20 & ½” NPT threads also available
SECTION 2: Operation
The model flame detector will determine the model HART for flame unit being used. Specific
combinations of SW2 positions (DIP Switch 2 positions) have been assigned for each available type of
flame detector. Selecting DIP Switch 2 positions correctly will determine the operation of the unit. See
Table 1 and Figure 2 or Figure 3. Once the system has been powered up, confirm operation by referencing
the specific Flame Detector manual. Meter Test Jacks are available on the HART Flame Junction box
PCB to check and monitor the current output (4-20mA). If the HART / Relay model junction box is being
used, note that the relays are dry contacts and are Form C SPDT rated 5 Amperes at 30 VDC/250AC.
If the HART Communicator is to be placed in the current loop, ensure that the HART Jumper (J5) is in
the factory default position (pins jumpered), then place a 250 Ohm resistor in the current loop and connect
the communicator across the resistor. Refer to Figure 2 or Figure 3 along with Current Loop power block
diagrams and / or Typical Field wiring diagrams. If the HART Communicator is to be used with the
HART Port connector for direct or remote communication, see Section 4.
2.1 Current Loop power configurations
The two current loop power configurations available are the Non –Isolated power configuration and the
Isolated power configuration. When using the Non-Isolated power configuration (Non-Isolated current
loop), the Non –ISO / ISO select jumper (JP1) located on the HART Flame Junction box PCB should
remain in its default pos it io n . ‘ISO’ on the power terminal side is not used in this configuration. For the
Isolated power configuration (Isolated current loop), JP1 should be placed over pin 1 and pin 2 and a
separate power supply used to supply +24VDC to ‘ISO’ on the power terminal side. See figure 2 or figure
3 for JP1’s location. Also refer to Current Loop power block diagrams and / or Typical Field wiring
diagrams.
Note: By factory default JP1 (Non –ISO / ISO select jumper) is connected across pin 2 and pin 3 (NonIsolated power configuration). Also by factory default the HART Jumper (J5) is connected (pins are
jumpered).

Table 2: Flame Detector wiring Table 3: Power and output wiring
The HART Communicator may be connected to the HART Flame Junction Box via the HART Port
connector. Refer to Figure 4. For remote HART communication, the HART Communicator is connected
to the Junction box interface via a HART Port connector and separation board (JB-MPH-A/S). See Figure
5. Refer to the HART Port connector manual (MAN-0083) and the Net Safety Multi-purpose Junction
Box manual (MAN-0081) during installation.
The HART Communicator may also be placed in the current loop wiring. Refer to Section 4. Place a 250
Ohm load resistor in the 4-20 mA current loop and connect the HART Communicator probes across the
resistor. Do not install a resistor within the HART interface junction box. The total current loop resistance
should be a maximum of 600 Ohms in order to have proper communication with the HART
Communicator.

Important note and Instructions
Note: Refer to The Net Safety Multipurpose Junction Box manual (MAN-0081) and HART Port
connector manual (MAN-0083) when wiring for remote communication.
Instructions: For remote HART communication, connect the HART Jumper (J5) located on the HART
Flame Junction Box terminal board, across the pins (jumper pins). See Figure 2 or Figure 3 for location of
the Jumper.
The HART protocol incorporates an “Enhanced Device Description Language”, (EDDL) that enables
HART instrument manufacturers to define and document their product in a consistent format. This format
is readable by handheld communicators, PC’s and other process interface devices that support EDDL.
For the Flame Detector- Junction Box Hart interface, handheld HART communicators, PC’s and other
process interface devices must support the latest 16 bits manufacture ID and 16 bits device type. For the
375 model HART Communicator the software version must be at least version 2.0.
Establishing HART Communication with the flame detector and HART Flame Junction Box.
1. Ensure system is wired properly, then power up the unit and ensure no faults are indicated.
2. If the HART Port connector connected to the junction box as an interface, unscrew the HART
Port connector’s protective cap.
3. Connect the HART Communicator non-polarized probes to the 2 non polarized HART Port
connector terminals.
4. If the HART Port connector is not used, ensuring the HART current loop jumper inside the
junction box is in place. Then put the HART communicator probes across a resistor (min. 250
Ohms) within the 4-20 mA loop wiring. The maximum loop resistance of the wiring should be
600 Ohms.
5. Turn on the HART Communicator and proceed to initiate communication. If not familiar with the
communicator, consult the specific HART Communicator manual for operating instructions.
Important Notes:
• Proper analog signal output termination and minimum loop resistance must be completed in
all cases to enable HART communication. Failure to provide proper analog signal output loop
resistance will preclude all HART communication.
• If the HART Communication is not programmed with specific DD or does not support 16 bits
IDs, the JB-MPFH can still connect to the communicator but in the Generic HART
communication mode. In this mode, HART communication with the system will be
established, but the Communicator will not recognize the system (unit). Generic HART
communication will not provide access to the JB-MPHF EDDL menu and important set-up,
diagnostics or operation functions.
If you cannot find Net-Safety or JB-MPHF under Net-Safety on your Communicator, the specific EDDL
is not programmed into communicator. Your HART Communicator will require an EDD L upgrade in
order to access all the JB-MPHF functions.

Each type of flame detector performs an automatic visual integrity test on the optics to ensure there is no
obstruction on or near the detectors lens. Though this test is done, it is important to perform routine
maintenance checks and cleaning of the window/lens. It is recommended that cleaning be done with Net
Safety cleaning products. In addition to established maintenance rou tines, perform response tests on the
detector by using the appropriate Net Safety Test Lamp to simulate fire con d it ions. Refer to specific
flame detector and test lamp manuals when performing the above checks.

ALL equipment must be shipped prepaid. Collect shipments will not be accepted.
Definition: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is the transfer, between bodies, of an electrostatic charge
caused by direct contact or induced by an electrostatic field.
The most common cause of ESD is physical contact. Touching an object can cause a discharge of
electrostatic energy—ESD! If the charge is sufficient and occurs near electronic components, it can
damage or destroy those components. In some cases, damage is instantaneous and an immediate
malfunction occurs. However , symptoms are not always immediate—performance may be marginal or
seemingly normal for an indefinite period of time, followed by a sudden failure.
To eliminate potential ESD damage, review the following guidelines:
• Handle boards by metal shields—taking care not to touch electronic components.
• Wear grounded wrist or foot straps, ESD shoes or heel grounders to dissipate unwanted static
energy.
• Prior to handling boards, dispel any charge in your body or equipment.
• Ensure all components are transported and stored in static safe packaging
• When returning boards, carefully package in the original carton and static protective wrapping
• Ensure ALL personnel are educated and trained in ESD Control Procedures
In general, exercise accepted and proven precautions normally observed when handling electrostatic
sensitive devices. A warning label is placed on the packaging, identifying product using electrostatic
sensitive semiconductor devices.
