At TCI Supply, we offer a comprehensive range of industrial and commercial flame safety devices designed to ensure optimal safety and performance in critical applications. Our selection includes advanced flame monitors and relays, built to detect and respond to flame presence swiftly and reliably. These devices are suitable for various environments and applications, providing the protection and reliability needed to maintain safe operations.

Honeywell and Fireye flame relays are used in burner management systems for monitoring and controlling flame presence in industrial and commercial combustion applications. You’ll typically find them in boilers, furnaces, and ovens across industries like power generation, chemical processing, food production, and commercial HVAC systems. These relays ensure safe ignition and combustion, automatically shutting down burners in case of flame failure. They are critical in environments where fuel combustion must be monitored and controlled, including refineries, hospitals, and manufacturing plants.

Industrial and Commercial Flame Safety Devices FAQ

What types of industrial and commercial flame monitors and relays do you offer (UV, IR, UV/IR)?

We offer a variety of flame monitors and relays, including UV, IR, and UV/IR types, to accommodate different detection needs in industrial and commercial settings.

What are the output types and ratings for your flame relays?

Our flame relays are available with various output types and ratings, designed to meet the specific needs of different systems and applications. Detailed specifications can be found in the product documentation.

Relay outputs provide dry contact relay outputs to signal flame presence or absence to the burner management system.  Flame Signal Outputs offer a 4-20mA or 0-10V signal that can be used for flame intensity monitoring.

What are the environmental operating limits (temperature, humidity, pressure) for your industrial and commercial flame monitors and relays?

TCI Supply’s range of flame monitors and relays are built to operate within a wide range of environmental conditions, including varying temperatures, humidity levels, and pressures. Specific operating limits are provided in the product technical data.

Temperature: Operating range typically between -40°C to 70°C (-40°F to 158°F)

Humidity: Can tolerate up to 90-95% relative humidity, non-condensing.

Pressure: Designed to function at standard atmospheric pressure with some tolerance for slight variations in industrial settings.

What is the response time of your industrial and commercial flame monitors and relays?

The response time of our flame monitors and relays is optimized for quick detection and action, ensuring safety in critical situations. Generally, Generally, TCI’s range of flamer relays have a response time of about 1 to 3 seconds, depending on the model and the specific application. It’s designed to provide quick feedback to the control system to initiate safety actions if a flame is lost.  Response times vary by model and application, so please check with your representative.

How do your industrial and commercial flame monitors and relays handle vibration and shock in industrial environments?

Our flame monitors and relays are designed to withstand high levels of vibration and shock, making them suitable for demanding industrial environments.

The Fireye MP flame relay is built with rugged components and durable housing to withstand moderate levels of vibration and shock typically encountered in industrial burner rooms or manufacturing facilities.  While not specifically designed for extremely high-vibration environments, the relay’s compact, solid-state design minimizes the impact of mechanical disturbances.

Like the Fireye MP series, the Honeywell R7800 is generally installed in control panels or enclosures designed to mitigate excessive vibration.

What is the protection class of your industrial and commercial flame monitors and relays (IP rating)?

Our flame monitors and relays are rated for high protection levels, with IP ratings that ensure durability and reliability in challenging conditions.

Programmers and relays for flame safety such as Fireye EP160, Fireye MP230, and Honeywell R4140M1020
