Flame Control - Honeywell Ecomax Series Technical Information

Project planning information for indirect heating

7 .6 Flame control

Burners ECOMAX are equipped with a combined
spark electrode/flame rod. For indirect heating,
ionization control is possible up to a furnace tempera-
ture of approx. 1050°C (single-electrode operation).
In this respect, it must be noted that the burner con-
trol unit BCU must feature at least firmware version
FW 16xx, see page 54 (Burner control units and igni-
tion transformers).
Flame control with UV sensor is required if a furnace
temperature of 1050°C for indirect heating is ex-
ceeded. We recommend using bend-resistant Kanthal
electrodes for ignition on ECOMAX..M as of a furnace
temperature of more than 950°C. These are fitted as
standard on ECOMAX..C.
ECOMAX · Edition 10.17
We recommend the UV sensor UVS 10D1 with inte-
grated purge air connection (Order No. 84315202) for
UV control.
For ECOMAX 0, the UV sensor UVS 10L1 (Order
No. 84315203) with lens is required for UV control. For
burners ECOMAX 1 – 6 with a burner length of more
than 545 mm, the UV sensor UVD 10L1 with lens is
also required for UV control.
An adapter set is required for connection to the UVS 10,
see page 63 (UV adapter set).
