6 Layout and function 6 Layout and function This chapter explains the operational characteristics of the Compact Flame Monitor and how the relevant components interact. Functional description The Compact Flame Monitor D−LX 200, D−LX 720 comprises an optical flame sensor and a control unit in one housing. The flame sensor converts the light signal from the flame into an electrical signal, while the control unit ensures self-monitoring, evaluates the flame signal and communicates the result.
Page 58
6 Layout and function Figure 6.3: Functional diagram In both microcontrollers for control and monitoring of the safety-relevant flame monitor functions and self-monitoring, both the static and the dynamic flame signals, depending on the set switching threshold (frequency, intensity), are evaluated for the Flame ON or Flame OFF signal.
Page 59
6 Layout and function The filter is opaque in the visible spectral range, and therefore appears black to the human eye. The photo-diode is visible through the lens of the flame monitor. 6.1.2 Infrared flame sensor The IR radiation zone of a flame is extensive in many cases and very intensive relative to the UV radiation.
6 Layout and function 6.1.4 Error shutdown If an error is detected in the safety-relevant software and hardware components during internal self-monitoring of the flame monitor, an error shutdown and internal lockout must be triggered. The relays of the flame signal and readiness for operation signal drop out and the Fault (Error) LED in the front panel illuminates, while the Power LED starts to flash (for meaning of LEDs see page 65).

8 Adjusting the flame monitor Chan. 2 Chan. 1 No. 3 Figure 8.2: Front panel D−LX 200 The rotary switches that are located above each other (Figure 8.2: Rotary switches with identical hatching) must be re-set to the same setting within 8 seconds.
8 Adjusting the flame monitor Figure 8.4: Setting the flicker frequency [Hz] of the flame With the threshold of the flicker frequency, switch position 0 (zero) means a deactivation of the threshold. The detection of periodic signals is deactivated. With a switch position > 0 (zero) a threshold is established. The measured flicker frequency of a flame must exceed this threshold in order for a flame ON signal to be given (see Figure 8.4).
