Description Description Type plate The type plate is located on the device housing and con- tains the device type designation and the serial number. Functional description For flame radiation analysis the compact flame controller is using the integral method in the respective spectral range.
Settings can only be changed on the printed circuit board. 5.3.1 The frequency filter The CFC 2000 has a four-step frequency filter in the sig- nal input. The evaluation of the flame signal by the soft- ware takes place only downstream of the frequency filter.
Description 5.3.2 Safety switch-OFF time of the safety channel The safety switch-OFF time of the safety channel (hard- ware) is set by means of a jumper. The settings are as fol- lows: Jumper 1 bridged: 1 second Jumper 2 bridged: 3 seconds Jumper 3 bridged: 5 seconds If a switch-OFF time of 2 seconds is required, the jumper must be inserted in position 2 (3 seconds) and the switch-...
Description 5.3.3 The optical shutter On the CFC 2000 of the IR Series, the radiation on the sensor element (3) can be reduced by means of an opti- cal shutter. The least radiation onto the element is ob- tained when the smallest hole is positioned in front of the sensor element.
