The ABB FAU810 C10-12010 Flame Analysis Unit Module is a specialized industrial safety device designed for real-time flame detection and combustion monitoring in critical applications.
Here’s a detailed technical breakdown:
1. Core Functions
Advanced Flame Detection:
Utilizes UV/IR multi-spectral sensing (180-2600nm range) for reliable flame identification while rejecting false signals from sunlight/welding
Features dynamic flame signature analysis to distinguish between different fuel types (gas, oil, coal)
Safety-Critical Monitoring:
Provides 4-20mA analog output + relay contacts for integration with burner management systems (BMS)
Implements fail-safe circuitry with automatic self-checks (lens contamination detection, sensor integrity monitoring)
Industrial Communication:
Supports Modbus RTU/TCP for integration with DCS/PLC systems
Stores event logs with timestamped alarm history (last 1000 events)
2. Key Specifications
Detection Range: Up to 30m (gas flames), 15m (oil flames)
Response Time: <3 seconds for flame failure detection
Environmental Rating: IP66/NEMA 4X enclosure (-40°C to +85°C operation)
3. Typical Applications
Boiler/turbine combustion monitoring in power plants
Fired heaters in oil refineries
Incinerators in waste treatment facilities
Process furnaces in petrochemical plants
