Description
Engineered for continuous-duty industrial burner applications, the Honeywell C7076F1006 is a high-sensitivity, self-checking ultraviolet flame detector. This industrial sensor detects UV radiation emitted by combustion flames and is specifically configured with an integrated dynamic self-checking shutter mechanism to test detector functionality continuously. Encased in a robust, explosion-proof enclosure, this device is designed for deployment in hazardous environments where explosive gas mixtures may be present, ensuring high reliability in critical safety systems.
The unit's optical sensor responds only to ultraviolet wavelengths, ignoring infrared radiation and hot refractory surfaces. This makes it highly effective for monitoring gas, oil, or combined-fuel burners. Its durable housing features a 1-inch NPT mechanical connection for secure installation directly onto the burner viewport.
Features
- Continuous dynamic self-checking system monitors detector circuit and sensor component integrity automatically.
- Heavy-duty explosion-proof enclosure certified for ATEX Ex d IIC T6 hazardous areas.
- Immunity to infrared radiation and refractory glow prevents false flame indications.
- IP66-rated protection class ensures long-term durability in harsh, weather-exposed industrial conditions.
- Integrated shutter mechanism designed for high-cycle industrial reliability.
Applications
- Utility and industrial boiler flame monitoring.
- Petrochemical and oil refinery thermal processing.
- High-capacity waste incinerators and thermal oxidizers.
- Gas turbine exhaust and combustion chambers.

Installation Guidelines
Position the detector so it has an unobstructed line of sight to the first third of the flame, which is the zone of highest UV intensity. Ensure the 1-inch NPT connection is sealed against pressure leaks to prevent hot gases from damaging the optical quartz window. Ground the detector housing in accordance with local industrial electrical codes to minimize electromagnetic interference. Cable runs should be kept away from high-voltage igniter wiring.
