    UVI 550

    PILOT MONITOR

    ADVANTAGES GENERAL DESCRIPTION

    The UVI 550 pilot monitor was designed and developed in order to
    Instantaneous response time satisfy several objectives: remote flame detection, reliability,
    durability, ease of maintenance, and rapid response time. The result
    Ease of maintenance – is an extremely reliable, durable and inexpensive pilot monitoring
    located at grade device. The UVI 550 is used to detect the presence of a pilot flame
    at distances of up to 550 feet. If the UVI 550 detects the absence of
    Durability – not located in flame or “flame failure” for an adjustable amount of time, a set of dry
    flame impingement zone form C contacts are activated and the pilot re-ignition system is set
    into motion. The response time is much quicker than when using a
    Ultraviolet detection (not standard thermocouple because the UVI 550 reacts instantaneously.
    affected by the sun) A standard thermocouple goes into alarm only after it has cooled
    down below the set temperature of the thermocouple controller,
    Penetrates fog, rain, sleet, whereas the UVI can immediately sense the loss of flame.
    smog, or smoke
    The UVI 550 measures a specific narrow band of ultraviolet radiation
    that is common only to burning hydrocarbons. The sensitivity of the
    UVI 550 is such that it can detect radiation from an 8 inch flame at a
    distance of 500 feet. The ultraviolet wave length can be sensed
    through a veritable barrage of fog, rain, sleet, smog, or even smoke.
    The UVI 550 can be located at any position (full 360 degrees) relative
    to the flare stack since solar ultraviolet rays have no effect on the
    monitor. Most infrared detectors can not be positioned so that they
    face east or west due to false readings and interference from the
    sun. The UVI 550 is technologically superior to infrared pilot monitors
    as well as being less expensive. Another obvious advantage is ease
    of maintenance given that the UVI is located at grade.
