Product Details
The Fireye UV1AL-3 is a non-self-check ultraviolet flame scanner in the UV1AL family, equipped with a 3 ft TC‑ER tray exposed run cable meeting UL 1569 standard for crush and impact resistance. This ultraviolet flame scanner captures ultraviolet radiation released by combustion and sends flame‑present or flame‑loss feedback to Fireye burner safeguard controllers. As a reliable burner UV detector, it adopts a 1/2 inch NPT threaded coupling for direct sight pipe mounting and withstands furnace pressure up to 1 PSI under standard conditions; an optional quartz window coupling raises the pressure rating to 50 PSI for high‑positive‑pressure combustion chambers. This Fireye UV1AL-3 sensor is stocked as genuine replacement spare part, widely deployed on gas and light oil burners matched with BurnerPRO, MBCE and NXF4000 burner management systems.

Supported Functions
This ultraviolet flame scanner continuously monitors UV signals from stable combustion. The burner UV detector converts optical flame energy into valid electrical feedback for the flame safeguard unit. It triggers fuel shutoff and burner lockout once flame extinction is detected. This Fireye UV1AL-3 sensor supports uninterrupted long-term monitoring for both steady and cyclic industrial burners.
Core Functions
The high-sensitivity UV tube identifies genuine flame ultraviolet signals and reduces false alarms induced by hot refractory surfaces. The ultraviolet flame scanner’s short integrated cable suits compact burner enclosures where long cabling is unnecessary. Its threaded sight pipe structure provides dependable sealing and easy optical alignment. Standard pin definition allows direct drop‑in substitution for a faulty UV1AL-3 without extensive rewiring.
