Flame Monitoring for Burners
In most large furnaces (such as those in coal fired power plants), end users struggle to properly capture the flame signal of the burners they are assigned to and they usually pick up the flame signals of the ones opposite as well. This lack of flame discrimination by the flame scanners lead to safety issues in the furnace.
BFI’s Compact Flame Scanner solutions not only enable proper flame discrimination using thresholds set by the frequency and amplitude of the flame, they also allow the user to do so remotely from the control room if desired.
For burners used in coal fire power plants, BFI has lance mounted fibre optic cables to cater to these applications.
Lance Mounting for Tilting Burners
BFI designs specialized double air purge fibre optic lances for use in high temperature furnace applications. This helps to give ample cooling to the fibre optic cable in high temperature applications inside furnaces.
Software threshold settings
Proper frequency and amplitude threshold settings on the software ensures that the BFI flame scanners are able to differentiate between the flame it is monitoring and a neighbouring flame in close proximity.
Network solutions
For multi-level burners, BFI flame scanners can be connected in a chain and controlled from a PC in the control room, providing a solution that is easy to monitor and configure.
