Checking the usage
UV sensor for intermittent operation for flame
control on gas burners in conjunction with Elster
Kromschröder automatic burner control units (IFS,
IFD, PFS, PFD), flame detectors (IFW, PFF) or burner
control units (BCU,PFU).
This function is only guaranteed when used within the
specified limits– see page5 (Technical data). Any
other use is considered as non-compliant.

Installation
CAUTION
Use UV sensor only in conjunction with Elster
Kromschröder automatic burner control units,
flame detectors or burner control units in order to
avoid damage.
▷
It is preferable to install the unit inclined from
above or in the horizontal.
< 400mm
(16”)
▷
Distance between UVS and flame: max.400mm
(16").
▷The UV sensor may only be exposed to the UV
light of its own flame. It should be protected
from other sources of ultraviolet light, e.g. neigh-
bouring flames (this must be observed when
monitoring pilot and main burners in particular),
ignition sparks, arcs from welding devices or
lamps emitting ultraviolet light.
▷
Avoid exposing the UV sensor viewing openings
to direct sunlight.
▷
Protect the viewing openings against dirt and
moisture.

Wiring
WARNING
Electric shocks can be fatal! Before working on
possible live components, ensure the unit is discon-
nected from the power supply.
▷Connection cable:
– Use in accordance with local regulations.
– Lay individually and, if possible, not in a metal
conduit.
– Do not lay together with ignition cable but lay
them as far apart as possible.
– M20 cable gland is designed for cable diameters
of 7 to 13mm.
– Spring force terminals for wire cross-sections
>0.2mm² to ≤1.5mm² (AWG24 to AWG16).
– Max. cable length in accordance with the speci-
fications for automatic burner control units IFS,
IFD, PFS, PFD, flame detectors IFW, PFF or
burner control units BCU,PFU.
▷
External electrical interference must be avoided.
1 Disconnect the system from the electrical power
supply.
2 Shut off the gas supply.

Maintenance
Replacing the UV tube
WARNING
Electric shocks can be fatal! Before working on
possible live components, ensure the unit is discon-
nected from the power supply.
CAUTION
Do not touch the replacement UV tube with bare
fingers.
▷The sensor tube must be replaced after approx.
10,000 operating hours (approx. 1year).
▷Spare parts (tube, sticker, seal), see www.part-
detective.de
1 Disconnect the system from the electrical power
supply.
2 Shut off the gas supply.

Assistance in the event of
malfunction
WARNING
– Electric shocks can be fatal! Before working
on possible live components, ensure the unit
is disconnected from the power supply.
– Fault-clearance must only be undertaken by
authorized trained personnel!
– Do not carry out repairs on the UV sensor on
your own as this will cancel our guarantee. Un-
authorized repairs or incorrect electrical con-
nections can cause the UV sensor to become
defective. In this case, fail-safe operation can
no longer be guaranteed.
– (Remote) resets may only be conducted by
authorized trained personnel with continuous
monitoring of the burner to be repaired.
– Safe operation only in conjunction with Elster
Kromschröder automatic burner control units,
flame detectors or burner control units.
• Measure the current in the flame signal cable
(connect the positive pole of the measuring in-
strument to the cable from the automatic burner
control unit and the negative pole to the cable
from the UV sensor).

▷
The measured direct current must be greater

? Fault
! Cause
• Remedy
? A direct current is flowing, but no flame
present.
! The UV sensor is influenced by the flames of
other burners, e.g. by reflection on the furnace
walls.
• Position the sensor so that it can only “view” its
own dedicated flame (e.g. use viewing tube).
! Humidity inside the sensor.
• Vent sensor.
! The service life of the UV tube has expired.
• Replace UV tube in the UV sensor, see page4
(Maintenance).
! The sensitivity of the flame amplifier in the auto-
matic burner control unit is too high.
• Adjust the switch-off threshold on the automatic
burner control unit.

? No direct current although the flame is burn-
ing.
! The UV sensor is dirty, e.g. sooted.
• Clean sensor.
! Humidity inside the UV sensor.
• Vent sensor.
! The distance between the UV sensor and the
flame is too great.
• Reduce the distance.
? The automatic burner control unit ignites in
pulses.
! The sensor “sees” the ignition spark.
• Reposition the UV sensor so that it cannot “see”
the ignition spark.
• Use an automatic burner control unit that is able
to distinguish between an ignition spark and a
flame signal.
? The intensity of the flame signal decreases
after a longer period of operation.
! UV tube fault due to incorrect UV sensor con-
nections.
• Connect the UV sensor in accordance with the
wiring instructions.
• Remove the UV sensor and return for repair.
? The automatic burner control unit performs
a fault lock-out during start-up or operation.
! The highly fluctuating flame signal temporarily
exceeds the switch-off threshold.
• Reduce the distance between UV sensor and
flame.
• Position the UV sensor so that it can “view” the
flame without hindrance (e.g. smoke curtain).
! The switch-off threshold in the automatic burner
control unit is set too high.
• Adjust switch-off threshold.
