E2T Quasar 2 Flare Monitors Quick Start Guide
Unpacking and Inspection
When unpacking and inspecting your system
components, you need to do the following:
1. Check all materials in the container against
the enclosed packing list.
2. Carefully unpack and inspect all compo-
nents for visible damage.
3. Save all packing materials, including the
carrier’s identification codes, until you have
inspected all components and find that
there is no obvious or hidden damage.
If you find damage, contact the carrier and
LumaSense Technologies.
1. Remove housing cover.
2. Align the Quasar 2 on the flare tip using
the sighting port.
3. Connect power as described on page 2.
4. Initial Pot settings:
• Setpoint pot set for approximately 50%
• Gain Pot full clockwise
• Delay Pot full counterclockwise
• Decay Pot full counterclockwise
(Advanced Model Only)
5. Gain Adjustment
Adjust Gain Pot clockwise as far as
possible while assuring alignment of the
Quasar 2 on flare tip using the sighting
port for maximum output on the inten-
sity led bar. The green “flame detect” LED
should illuminate. If the intensity falls
below Setpoint setting, the red “flame off”
LED should illuminate after the delay has
timed out.
6. Delay setting for switched analog output.
Once the instrument is aimed at the pilot
flame adjust the Delay Pot full clockwise
for maximum delay (approximately 2.0
minutes).
Adjust the Delay Pot full counterclockwise
for minimum delay (approximately 2 sec-
onds). Determine the duration of delay by
covering lens and measuring the elapsed
time until the red light illuminates.
7. Decay setting for the continuous analog
output (Advanced Model Only). Adjust
Decay Pot until you get a continuous
output signal with the response required
for your control or monitoring interface.
8. After adjustment check mA output
4 mA / 20 mA. Switched output & 4 / 20 mA
continuous output (Advanced Model Only).
9. Reattach housing back.

Connecting the Power Supply
The Quasar 2 can be powered by 24 V DC and
115/230 V AC.
Caution: Only one of the three power supply
possibilities should be connected!
All electrical connections are made through
terminal strips on the left side of the housing
(wire range 14 – 22 AWG (0.4 mm2- 2 mm2)).
Connect wires as shown in Figure 1. Wires
should be routed to the unit through the 3/4”
NPT threaded conduit port located on the left
side of the housing.
Connect 24 V DC or 115/230 V AC 50/60 Hz as
indicated.
Connecting the Outputs
All electrical connections are made through
terminal strips on the right side of the housing
(wire range 14 to 22 AWG (0.4 mm2- 2 mm2)).
Wires should be routed to the unit through
the 3/4” NPT threaded conduit port located on
the right side of the housing.
Connect lines for the relay to the terminal, as
shown in Figure 2.
Connect the 4 / 20 mA current output to the
terminal for switched and/or continuous
output (Advanced Model Only), as shown in
Figure 2.
