The Fireye InSight® flame scanners are versatile, fully microprocessor-based, integrated scanners. All InSight flamescanners have been approved by multiple worldwide safety agencies. The InSight scanners utilize advanced techniques for discrimination and integrate the flame detection, amplification, safety determination and flame switch functions into a single detection head. No separate amplifier or flame switch module is therefore required to interface with the main burner management system. Automated Lear-On and Lear-Off of the flame.

The scanners measure the amplitude of the modulations (the flame “flicker”) that occur within the targeted flame. During the scanner set- up procedure, the modulation frequency that yields the best flame ON/OFF discrimination is selected. The appropriate modulation frequency and sensor gain can be either manually or automatically selected. The InSight II scanners are dual cell and utilize UV and IR detectors and various levels of housing type including NFPA 70 (NEC Class I Div 2) and ATEX ExdIIC.
