The use of this product in a manner not specified by the manufacturer will impair its built-in safety features. WARNING Do not combine this unit with a unit other than Azbil Corporation's flame safeguard control burner controller. Make sure that this device does not detect ultraviolet rays other than those of the burner flame. If it responds to other ultraviolet rays, flame failure in the burner will not be detected.

CAUTION The AUD300C is specially designed for intermittent burner operation (system is started and stopped once or more within 24 hours) and 24-hour continuous burner operation (combustion continues for 24 hours or longer). It must be used with a burner controller having a dynamic self-checking function.

Chapter 1. OVERVIEW Certification ● Gas Appliance Directive (CE)*: 0063BS1427(with AUR450C and Q241A104) 0063CN6671(with RX-R4_C series) File No. MH27717 CSA: Master Report LR 078402 * CE marking appears only on the controller. Note. Certification does not apply to AUD300C1_ 0Y and AUD300C1_0YT. Combined burner controller ●...
Chapter 2. MOUNTING WARNING Before removing, mounting, or wiring the AUD300C, be sure to turn off the AUD300C and all con- nected devices. Failure to do so might cause electric shock. Make sure that this device does not detect ultraviolet rays other than those of the burner flame. If it responds to other ultraviolet rays, flame failure in the burner will not be detected.
Chapter 2. MOUNTING Monitoring of both pilot flame and main flame (continuous pilot or intermittent pilot) ● Mount this unit so that the unit monitors an area where the pilot flame intersects the main flame. Monitoring of only main flame (interrupted pilot) ●...
Chapter 2. MOUNTING Handling Precautions • If the above temperature range is not observed, this may cause the tube unit or shutter unit assembled to this unit to malfunction or unnecessary shut-off. • When this unit is not being used to detect a flame, do not allow the ambi- ent temperature to exceed 100 °C.
Chapter 2. MOUNTING The allowable range of the mounting posture is that the upper limit is 90° (conduit tube port becomes horizontal) and the lower limit is 45°. Upper limit 90° 90° Horizontal plane 45° Vertical plane Side Lower limit 45° Handling Precautions •...

Chapter 2. MOUNTING Mounting space ● Keep a sufficient space to allow easy maintenance and inspection, and service work. Monitoring pipe, AUD300C 1" or more (Use 2" to 3" pipe.) Reducing socket Tees Furnace wall Tapered monitoring hole Connection nipple (1") Weld this part Burner...
Chapter 2. MOUNTING (2) Weld the monitoring pipe temporarily. Weld the monitoring pipe temporarily to the plate of the combustion chamber, such as boiler. At this time, do not weld the monitoring pipe completely since the inspection and adjustment are required until the flame is detected properly. Monitoring pipe Weld these parts temporarily.
Chapter 3. WIRING WARNING Before removing, mounting, or wiring the AUD300C, be sure to turn off the AUD300C and all con- nected devices. Failure to do so might cause electric shock. When measuring the voltage between the F-terminal and G-terminal of this unit in the wiring check, do not touch any terminal by bare hand.
● (1) Remove the cover by unscrewing the four (4) mounting screws that secure it to the AUD300C1000. Remove 2 tube unit retaining screws on the rear of the tube unit. Hold the rear of the tube unit and gently raise it upward to remove it.
Chapter 4. ADJUSTMENT Before measurement of flame voltage Before measuring the flame voltage, check the operation of this unit through the flame voltage output terminals of the burner controller. Model No. Flame voltage output terminals AUR300C Terminal 9 (+) AUR350C Terminal10 (−) AUR450C Positive terminal, Negative terminal...
Chapter 4. ADJUSTMENT Pilot turndown test This test is intended to check that the flame is correctly carried over to the main burner when this unit detects the pilot flame if the gas pressure and air pressure are changed to their worst conditions. WARNING To prevent an explosion trouble, carry out the pilot turndown test firmly.
Chapter 4. ADJUSTMENT Ignition spark response test WARNING Make sure that this device does not detect ultraviolet rays other than those of the burner flame. If it responds to other ultraviolet rays, flame failure in the burner will not be detected. As a result, fuel will continue to be discharged, causing a very serious explosion hazard.
Chapter 5. TROUBLESHOOTING WARNING Before removing, mounting, or wiring the AUD300C, be sure to turn off the AUD300C and all con- nected devices. Failure to do so might cause electric shock. Do not touch the AUD300C or the F or G terminals of the burner controller immediately after the power to the burner controller has been turned OFF.
Chapter 6. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION WARNING Before removing, mounting, or wiring the AUD300C, be sure to turn off the AUD300C and all con- nected devices. Failure to do so might cause electric shock. Do not touch the AUD300C or the F or G terminals of the burner controller immediately after the power to the burner controller has been turned OFF.
Chapter 6. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION Replacement of the shutter unit and tube unit using the AUD Maintenance Kit ■ CAUTION The service life of the tube unit and shutter unit components of the AUD300C is a maximum of 3 years. To ensure operational safety, be sure to replace them with new ones within this service life period.
Page 25
Chapter 6. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION Mounting the shutter unit onto the flange unit ● (1) Fit the O-ring that is included in the AUD Maintenance Kit onto the flange unit. (2) Loosen the 2 screws holding the tube unit of the new AUD Maintenance Kit and then remove the unit, grasping it by the back of the unit.

Chapter 6. MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION Handling Precautions • The polarities of the S1-terminal and S2-terminal are not specified. When measuring the voltage with an analog multi-meter, set a large voltage range so that the indication needle does not deflect over the negative scale to check the polarities.
