ABB UR600IR UR600 IR Flame Detector

Overview

The ABB UR600 IR is a self-checking flame detector designed for reliable detection of individual burner flames in industrial combustion systems. It is specifically suitable for atomized oil and pulverized coal fuels. The detector provides the Uvisor MFD control unit with a raw flame signal, representing both the amplitude and flicker frequency of infrared radiation detected in the primary combustion zone. The Uvisor MFD uses advanced algorithms to process this signal, ensuring precise flame detection and excellent discrimination against background and adjacent burner flames.
