LFL Series
Burner Flame Safeguard Control
The LFL… is a compact electro-mechanical
primary flame safeguard control designed to
provide burner sequencing, automatic igni-
tion and continuous flame monitoring fo
r
gas, oil, and dual fuel, single burner applica-
tions.
The LFL… is applicable for on-off, multi-
stage or modulating burners. The LFL… is
designed for direct main burner ignition,
intermittent or interrupted pilot operation.
The LFL… integrates the flame amplifier,
purge timer and sequencer in a single con-
trol. Flame supervision is accomplished
using UV sensor or flame rod detection.

window
The LFL… reset button
is integrated with the front window.
During a lockout condition,
pressing the window resets the LFL...
Pressing*the window or remote reset
during normal operation will lockout the LFL…
*Do not hold reset button for more than
10 seconds! (Local or remote) , exceeding
10 seconds will damage control !
Manually press the lockout reset button.
Do NOT use any tools or pointed objects.
Indicator dial provides symbolic information about the program sequence, the type of fault,
and the point in the sequence where the fault occurred.
The LFL…
sequence is
fixed and
cannot be
manually
manipulated.
Installation
• All installation and commissioning work must be performed by qualified personnel.
• The LFL… must be mounted in an electrical enclosure, typically in the control panel.
• All wiring must comply with applicable electrical codes standards and regulations.
• Before performing any wiring to the LFL…, remove and isolate all power.
• High voltage AC wiring must not be installed in the same conduit
as the flame detector wiring.
• Maximum 10 A slow external fuse is required.
• The LFL is not adversely affected by electromagnetic resonance.
• Ground the LFL… wiring base.
• Do not open or modify the LFL...
• When UV flame supervision is used, other sources of radiation, such as halogen
lamps, welding equipment, ignition sparks can produce erroneous flame signals.

Electrical connection notes for flame supervision
• It is important to minimize electrical disturbance and signal loss.
• Run flame signal wiring separate from all other wiring
• Observe the length of detector cable as indicated above
• The flame rod does not provide protection from electric shock
• Locate the ignition electrode(s) and flame rod such that the ignition spark cannot arc to the
flame rod (risk of electrical overload and damage to flame supervision circuit)
• When using the QRA..., grounding of terminal 22 is required
• Multiple UV sensors QRA... and/or flame rods can be connected in parallel
• If separate flame sensors are used for pilot and main flame supervision,
an interrupted pilot must be utilized

Description of operating controls and their functions
LFL input (1) HOT and LFL input (2) NEUTRAL are used for control power,
Powe
r
Reset and Alarm LFL output (3) ALARM, for alarm indication
LFL input (21) RESET, as show for reset and/or remote shutdown
Pressure or temperature activated, the operating limit switch (OLS),
Operating limit
OLS Closes, for burner start-up sequence to begin, and Opens, for a burner controlled shutdown
Pressure, temperature, or level activated, limit switches examples include:
Limit switches
LGP
HGP
LWS
High Limit
Low gas pressure (LGP) opens on low gas pressure
High gas pressure (HGP) opens on high gas pressure
Low water switch (LWS) opens on low water
These limit and are considered either to be recycle or non-recycle, (manual reset),
and are connected between; LFL output (5) RECYCLE and LFL input (4) RECYCLE
Recycle limit switches are used when it is desireable to stop the burner when the switch opens,
and restart it again, automatically, when the switch closes again.
Non-recycle limit switches are used when it is desireable to lockout the burner when the switch
opens and prevent if from automatically restarting again. These switches must be manually reset,
on the switch itself, as well as require you to push the reset button on the LFL to allow a new start-
up sequence.
The High Limit switch is almost always a non-recycle limit switch, and is usually connected to;
LFL input (1) HOT
NFPA 85, CSD-1 and UL795 require the HGP, LGP to cause a shutdown and be manually reset.
Most burner / boiler insurance codes also require a LWS.
The fuel proof of closure (POC) switch is integral to the fuel valve and activated by the valve
mechanics. The POC prevents a burner start-up if the fuel valve is not in the proved close posi-
tion.
Fuel proof of closure
POC
LFL input (12) POC, is provided for this purpose. Note -This is a ‘Precondition for Startup’ and
must be powered to start a sequence.
Combustion air blowe
r
CAB The combustion air blower (CAB) provides combustion air to the burner. Not all installations re-
quire the LFL to control the CAB. The LFL provides terminals for two options:
LFL output (7) M2, powered after a 2 sec delay, and continues through postpurge.
LFL output (6) M1, powered immediately, and stops prior to postpurge.
The combustion air switch (CAS) is used to prove that combustion air is being provided. Most
burner / boiler insurance codes require a CAS.
Combustion air switch
CAS LFL input (14) COMBUSTION AIR PROVE, is connected to the normally open (NO) terminal
of the CAS, and closes when air pressure is present.
LFL input (13) COMBUSTION AIR TEST SW, is connected to the normally closed (NC) termi-
nal of the CAS, to make sure the contacts have not welded.
The LFL provides options for; interrupted pilot, intermittent pilot, and direct ignition as follows;
LFL output (16) IGNITION, for the ignition transformer
Ignition
LFL output (17) PILOT, for interrupted (pilot on only during ignition), or
for intermittent (pilot on when burner is on)
LFL output (18) MAIN DIR IGN, for the main fuel valve on direct ignition
LFL output (19) MAIN PILOT, for the main fuel valve on piloted ignition
High fire purge inter-
lock
OPEN
Generally, an actuator position switch, or a differential pressure switch, that is used to prove the
actuator is at the high fire position. Some codes require the high fire position (open) be proved
during prepurge.
LFL output (9) OPEN, is provided to drive the actuator to this position. *See Note below
This switch is also, generally, an actuator position switch, that is used to prove the actuator is at
the low position. Some codes require the low fire (minimum) position be proved during ignition.
Low fire start interlock
MINIMUM LFL output (10) MINIMUM, is provided to drive the actuator to this position. *See Note below
This switch is as well, generally another actuator position switch that proves it is at the fully
closed (economy) position. This position is desired following post purge to minimize heat losses.
Fully closed
ECONOMY LFL output (11) ECONOMY, is provided to drive the actuator to this position. *See Note below
*Note LFL input (8) FEEDBACK, is provided to confirm each of these positions.
LFL output (20) RELEASE, enables an external load controlled and/or to indicate “Burner On“
Release to modulate
